Lottery players across the UK are dreaming of a monumental payday this evening, as the EuroMillions jackpot rolls over to an estimated £46 million. The massive prize comes after no ticket matched all the numbers in Tuesday's draw, setting the stage for a potentially life-changing win for a single lucky participant.
How to Play for Tonight's Massive Prizes
To be in with a chance of claiming the enormous EuroMillions jackpot, players must pick five main numbers from 1 to 50 and two Lucky Star numbers from 1 to 12. A ticket costs £2.50. While matching all seven numbers secures the top prize, there are multiple other prize tiers for matching fewer numbers.
Alongside the main event, the Thunderball draw also takes place tonight, offering a fixed top prize of £500,000. To enter, players select five numbers from 1 to 39 and one Thunderball number from 1 to 14 for a £1 stake. Crucially, this £500,000 prize is not shared; if you match all the required numbers, you win the full amount.
Key Draw Times and Where to Buy Tickets
The excitement begins with the Thunderball draw at 8:00 PM this evening. The EuroMillions draw will follow shortly after at 8:45 PM.
Tickets for both draws remain available until sales close ahead of the events. Players can purchase them at more than 40,000 retail outlets nationwide, online via the official National Lottery website, or through the National Lottery mobile apps.
Will Tonight Create a Multi-Millionaire?
With such a colossal sum on offer, tonight's EuroMillions draw is a major event in the UK's gambling calendar. The £46 million jackpot represents one of the largest prizes available this year and is enough to transform the winner's life beyond recognition. All eyes will be on the numbers as they are drawn later, with participants urged to check their tickets carefully. Will tonight see a new multi-millionaire crowned, or will the jackpot roll over once again?
