Live Poll

Do you plan to buy Montana Millionaire tickets when sales resume?

Montana Lottery will resume Montana Millionaire ticket sales on November 12, 2026, at 6:30 a.m. Tickets printed on November 1 remain valid for every scheduled drawing, and instant-win prizes from those tickets will be honored.

Why it matters

Technical problems disrupted the original November 1 launch, and the restart keeps the game's odds and drawings intact while adding more prizes for players in Montana.

The December 28 grand prize drawing features six $1 million prizes, and the Players Club 20th Anniversary drawing offers $20,000 to entrants. The source does not report total ticket sales before the halt or the specific technical fault that disrupted the November 1 launch.

Market Landscape

The Montana Lottery Players Club, marking its 20th anniversary, ties the $20,000 Players Club drawing to program membership, extending a long-running loyalty structure that rewards repeat players. The relaunch of Montana Millionaire keeps the game's existing odds and drawing schedule while adding prizes, reinforcing the state lottery's reliance on promotional drawings to sustain player engagement.

Players can buy Montana Millionaire tickets again starting November 12, 2026, and tickets already printed on November 1 will still qualify for every scheduled drawing. Entry into the Players Club is required to qualify for the $20,000 20th Anniversary drawing on December 28.

The takeaway

Players holding November 1 tickets should keep them, since they remain valid for every scheduled drawing. New buyers should note the Players Club requirement if they want to enter the 20th Anniversary drawing.
