4D Draw Schedule 2025

The 4D draw schedule in Malaysia follows a consistent pattern that has been established for decades. Understanding when draws occur is essential for planning your ticket purchases and ensuring you don't miss any opportunities to win.

Traditional operators like Magnum 4D, Sports Toto, and Da Ma Cai conduct draws three times per week on Wednesday, Saturday, and Sunday. This schedule has remained consistent since the 1960s and 1970s when these operators first began operations.

Modern operators such as 9 Lotto 4D and Grand Dragon Lotto have introduced daily draws, giving players seven opportunities per week instead of three. This increased frequency appeals to players who prefer more regular participation.

All draws in Malaysia are conducted in the evening to allow maximum participation from working adults. The standard draw time is 7:00 PM Malaysian Time (GMT+8) for most operators.

In addition to regular draws, the Malaysian government approves special draw dates throughout the year, typically falling on Tuesdays. These special draws often coincide with festive seasons and major holidays, particularly during Chinese New Year, Hari Raya, and Deepavali periods.

For 2025, eight special draw dates have been approved. The highest concentration of special draws occurs in late January and early February, corresponding with the Chinese New Year celebration period. This timing reflects the cultural significance of trying one's luck during the new year.

Special draws typically feature increased ticket sales and sometimes enhanced prize pools or jackpots. All major operators (Magnum, Sports Toto, Da Ma Cai) participate in special draws, along with regional operators like Sabah 88, Sarawak Cash Sweep, and Sandakan STC.

Players should note that special draw dates are subject to government approval and can occasionally be modified. It's advisable to check official operator websites or our live results page for the most current information.

Understanding when ticket sales close is crucial for ensuring your bets are placed in time. All operators close sales before the draw to allow for processing and verification.

These closing times apply to both physical retail outlets and online platforms. Some online platforms may close slightly earlier to ensure processing time. Always purchase your tickets well before the closing time to avoid disappointment.

During special draws, sales closing times remain the same as regular draws. However, some operators may extend operating hours at retail outlets to accommodate increased demand during festive periods.

Knowing the draw schedule allows you to plan your 4D participation strategically:

For players who prefer more frequent participation, daily draw operators like 9 Lotto, Grand Dragon Lotto, Lucky Hari Hari, and Perdana Lottery provide seven opportunities per week. This suits players who enjoy regular engagement rather than waiting for specific draw days.

Note: Perdana Lottery conducts two draws daily (3:30 PM and 7:30 PM), but our platform displays only the evening draw (7:30 PM) results to maintain consistency with other daily operators.

Remember to check historical results and use our number checker tool to verify your tickets after each draw.

All Malaysian 4D draws operate on Malaysian Time (GMT+8), which is the same as Singapore Time. This is important for international players or Malaysians abroad who want to participate.

Malaysia does not observe daylight saving time, so draw times remain consistent throughout the year. However, if you're in a country that uses daylight saving, the equivalent time in your location may shift seasonally.

Results are typically published on our live results page within 15-30 minutes of the draw completion, making it accessible for international followers regardless of time zone.
