Draw Schedule

Use the draw schedule to find out when you can play Quebec Lottery games. There's a great range of lotteries to enjoy, with many games played every day. Unlike in other provinces, every single game in Quebec is drawn at 10:30 PM Eastern Time regardless of whether it is drawn once or twice a week or even daily. You just need to get your tickets in before the draws take place.

Loto-Quebec is the operator of lottery games in Quebec and conducts all of its draws electronically, using a computerized random number generator that has been tested and certified by an independent third party. External auditors are also used to verify the results and check that the winning numbers have been produced at random. Ball machines are only used for certain special draws that are televised.

Lotto Max, Lotto 6/49 and Grande Vie work slightly differently as they are also played elsewhere in Canada. Draws take place in Toronto, Ontario, under the umbrella of the Interprovincial Lottery Corporation (ILC). The participating corporations work together to ensure draws are secure and random. They remain responsible for determining the number of winners in their own province and for distributing prize wins.
