CT Lottery Announces Relocation of Draw Studio
The CT Lottery Corp. (CLC) today announced that its lottery draw studio will be relocated from the FOX61/CW20 studios in Hartford to CLC headquarters in Wallingford, Connecticut. Upon completion of the lottery drawings on June 30, 2024, the drawings will be available for viewing exclusively on the web.
Due to the move, drawings will not be videotaped from July 1st through July 14th. Starting around July 15, 2024, drawings at the new studio will occur at the regularly scheduled times, under the oversight of the Department of Consumer Protection (DCP), and will be videotaped, but no longer televised. Results will be available shortly thereafter on ctlottery.org.
Drawing videos will be available the following business day at noon. To view the videos, visit ctlottery.org, click on the Lottery Games tab to select a game page, and click "Watch Drawings." Drawings are also viewable on the CT Lottery YouTube channel and the Fox61 app.
Additionally, Powerball® and Mega Millions® drawings will cease being broadcast on WCCT-TV as of July 1, 2024. Drawing videos can be viewed on ctlottery.org game pages, the CT Lottery YouTube channel, www.powerball.com, and www.megamillions.com. All lottery drawings will continue to be conducted under the supervision of the DCP to ensure their accuracy and integrity.
