Daily Grand


Daily Grand is a Canadian lottery game coordinated by the Interprovincial Lottery Corporation, as one of the country's three national lottery games, alongside Lotto 6/49 and Lotto Max. Sales began on October 18, 2016, and the first draw was held on October 20, 2016. The game was not launched in Atlantic Canada until 2017.
Winning numbers are chosen from five of 49 main numbers, and a "Grand Number" from 1 to 7. The Grand Number can also be used to match numbers from the five main numbers. A single board costs $3, and the game's top prize is an annuity of $1,000 a day. Draws are held bi-weekly on Monday and Thursday nights.

Prize structure

A lump sum option is available on the top two prizes, and is the only option if there are multiple winners. The annuity will last for the remainder of the winner's life, with a guaranteed period of 20 years.

Promotion

As part of a promotional effort for Daily Grand, the British Columbia Lottery Corporation announced a contest in which entrants would be asked how they would use the grand prize. The winners were to receive $1,000 prizes, and have to film themselves using the money.
