For each panel you want to play, choose five numbers from 1-36, or use the Quick Pick box if you would prefer the lottery terminal to generate your numbers at random.
Your playslip has 10 panels, labeled A-J. Each panel is its own ticket, so you only need to use one if you only want to play 1 game.
This is either MID for the midday drawing, EVE for the evening draw or BOTH for both draws. Selecting BOTH will mean paying for two tickets.
For $1 more per play, you can add EZmatch for a chance to win a cash prize on the spot. For each panel where you have selected EZmatch, you'll get a separate ticket with both your Fantasy 5 and EZmatch numbers.
Do you want to get all your Fantasy 5 tickets out in advance rather than buying them daily? Just mark the number of future days you'd like in the Advance Play section of the playslip. If you’re playing both draws, it is possible to enter 60 consecutive draws (30 days in a row).
During the drawing, five numbers out of 36 are drawn. If your five numbers match the winning numbers, you win the Jackpot! Match four, three, or even two of the drawn numbers and you'll win other cash prizes or a free ticket. All cash prizes are paid in a single payment.
Fantasy 5 drawings take place twice a day, 7 days a week at 1:05 PM and 11:15 PM (ET).
Ticket sales close 20 minutes before each respective drawing, at 12:45 PM and 10:55 PM (ET) respectively. Purchasing a ticket after the cut-off is possible, it'll just be entered into the next available draw.
The age limit to play Fantasy 5 is 18 years of age - the same goes for all other Florida Lottery games.
The base ticket price is $1 per play. For an additional $1, you can play the EZmatch add-on you’re your numbers for the opportunity to win prizes instantly.
