Lotto Max draws are held twice a week, every Tuesday and Friday night in Canada.

Quick Scoop: Lotto Max Draw Time

  • Draw days: Tuesday and Friday.
  • Ticket sales cut-off: typically 10:30 p.m. Eastern Time on draw nights (that’s when numbers are drawn and sales close)..
  • You can buy tickets up until that cutoff through retail terminals or online where available.

A quick example

Imagine it’s a Friday: as long as you buy your Lotto Max ticket before about 10:30 p.m. Eastern Time, it will be entered in that night’s draw; after that, it rolls over to the next Tuesday draw.

Always double‑check exact cut-off times on your provincial lottery website or app, as local rules and time zones can slightly affect sales deadlines.

TL;DR: Lotto Max draw is on Tuesday and Friday nights, with ticket sales usually closing at 10:30 p.m. Eastern Time on those days.
