£7.6 Million Jackpot Up for Grabs
Tonight, Wednesday, July 15, the National Lottery Lotto draw offers a jackpot of £7.6 million. One lucky ticket holder could win the entire sum if they match all six main numbers. However, smaller prizes are also available for matching fewer numbers.
New Dual-Draw Format
As of last month, each Lotto draw now consists of two separate rounds. All players are automatically entered into both draws with a single ticket. In the first round, 59 balls are used, with six main numbers and a Bonus Ball drawn. Matching two or more numbers from your Lotto line wins a cash prize. The same process repeats for the second draw with another set of 59 balls.
Matching five main numbers plus the Bonus Ball wins £1,000,000, while matching five main numbers earns £1,750.
Thunderball Draw Offers Additional Prize
Shortly after the Lotto draw at 8pm, the Thunderball draw at 8.15pm offers a top prize of up to £500,000. Tickets for both draws cost £2 each and must be purchased by 7.30pm. The Lotto draw takes place every Wednesday and Saturday, with EuroMillions on Tuesday and Friday, and Set For Life every Monday and Thursday.
