Playing FANTASY 5®
Get your play slip
Visit any Florida Lottery retail location for a paper play slip to choose your numbers. Every FANTASY 5® play slip allows you to play up to ten panels, with each panel equaling one ticket. Tickets can be purchased up to 20 minutes before the applicable drawing (12:45 p.m., ET for the midday drawing, and 10:55 p.m., ET for the evening drawing). Tickets purchased after the applicable timeframe will be for the next available draw.
Mark your panels
Choose a panel and select five numbers from 1 through 36—or mark the Quick Pick box in the panel and let the terminal pick some or all of your numbers at random. Select the draw time. Select MID for the midday drawing (1:05 p.m., ET), EVE for the evening drawing (11:15 p.m., ET), or BOTH for both the midday and evening drawings. If no draw time is marked, the terminal will automatically print a ticket for the next available draw. If BOTH are selected, two separate tickets will print ‐ one for the midday drawing and one for the evening drawing.

Save time with Advance Play
To play the same numbers for more than one draw, select the number of advance draws you wish to play in the Advance Play section at the top of your play slip. If you claim a prize on a winning Advance Play ticket before all of the draws on the ticket have occurred, you will be issued a continuation ticket for the remaining draws with the same play numbers as the original ticket.
Playing Fantasy 5 with Advanced Play
Fantasy 5 offers 2 daily draws Advance Play. To Advance Play the same numbers, players can purchase up to 30 consecutive days (A total of up to 60 consecutive drawings). Simply tell the retailer how many advance days you wish or select the number of days in the Advance Play section of your playslip.
