You can play EuroMillions across several European countries, including France, Spain, and the UK. You can play every Tuesday and Friday, with jackpots from €17 million that can roll over to a massive €240 million.

How to Play EuroMillions

Playing EuroMillions is simple: just select five numbers from 1 to 50, plus two extra numbers called 'Lucky Stars' from 1 to 12. You can grab a ticket at official retailers in any of the countries involved. The EuroMillions jackpot goes to the person who correctly matches all five of the main numbers drawn, as well as both of the Lucky Star numbers. In the event that no one wins the jackpot, the money rolls over, increasing the jackpot for the following draw. Apart from the main jackpot prize, there are 12 other prize tiers available, which are won by matching fewer numbers than required for the jackpot.

To pick up your winnings in person, bring your winning ticket and some ID to an official retailer. If you're claiming by post, just send your winning ticket and a filled-in claim form to the lottery people. Over the years, EuroMillions has made tons of people multi-millionaires. These winners have been able to use their winnings to totally transform their lives and the lives of their families.
