MANILA – The jackpot of Grand Lotto 6/55 worth P202.5 million is up for grabs in the draw to be held on the evening of Christmas Day, the Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office (PCSO) said on Wednesday.

The Grand Lotto 6/55 jackpot prize soared to over P200 million as there were no winners during last Monday’s draw.

PCSO General Manager Melquiades Robles said this will also be the case on New Year’s Day, Jan. 1, 2025.
