PHP202.5 Million Grand Lotto 6/55 Jackpot Awaits Winner on Christmas

MANILA – The Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office (PCSO) announced that a staggering PHP202.5 million jackpot for the Grand Lotto 6/55 will be available during the Christmas Day evening draw. The jackpot escalated beyond PHP200 million following no winners in the previous Monday’s draw. PCSO General Manager Melquiades Robles confirmed that a similar draw will occur on New Year’s Day, January 1, 2025, marking a historic first for PCSO with draws scheduled on both Christmas and New Year’s Day. The Grand Lotto 6/55 is typically drawn on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Saturdays. In an effort to boost jackpot sizes, PCSO has been running the ‘Handog Pakabog’ campaign, successfully increasing the jackpots of various games including the Regular Lotto 6/42, Mega Lotto 6/45, Super Lotto 6/49, Grand Lotto 6/55, and Ultra Lotto 6/58. These efforts have significantly enhanced lotto revenues. Additionally, the Mega Lotto 6/45, with a PHP46 million jackpot, is drawn on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. Robles encouraged the public to participate in PCSO’s gaming products, as the proceeds support health programs, medical services, and other national charities. The PCSO’s contributions are vital for aiding those in need of medical assistance and funding government institutions.
