It's time for Idaho Lottery players to party. In celebration of its 35th anniversary, the Idaho Lottery is releasing three new instant-win tickets.

You can win many different levels of cash prizes, including a top prize of $200,000. What's more, you can also enter each scratch-off ticket into the Idaho Lottery's first-ever second-chance rolling jackpot. The jackpot prize grows bigger with each single entry. There's even more – finalists from the second chance rolling jackpot will be drawn randomly each month for a chance to win $10,000 in the Final Cake Event, which will be held at the Village in Meridian on July 19, 2024.

Check out these new instant-win tickets: 

$5 35th Anniversary

This ticket has a top prize of $35,000. To play, remove the five gold star symbols to reveal the winning numbers. Then, remove the 20 cupcake symbols to reveal your numbers. If any of your numbers match the winning numbers, you win the prize amount shown by that number. If you reveal a party hat symbol, you instantly win the prize shown below that symbol. Scratch off the two Fast 35 balloons. If you reveal a cake symbol, you win $35 automatically.

Don't forget to enter your non-winning Anniversary instant-win tickets into the rolling jackpot second chance. All you need to do is enter the 8-digit alphanumeric code from the front of your ticket at the VIP website or with your mobile app or play a game online to see how many entries you have. Each monthly rolling jackpot will start at $3,000.

Second chance rolling jackpot drawings will be held between March 1 and August 1, 2024. Make sure you get all your entries in by 11:59 pm MT on the last day of each month. Remember, the more times you enter, the bigger the jackpot will grow.
