The Euromillions draw on Tuesday, August 11, offers a jackpot of £14 million, while the Thunderball draw has £500,000 up for grabs. The Euromillions draw takes place every Tuesday and Friday, with tickets priced at £2.50. This includes automatic entry into the UK Millionaire Maker draw, which creates new UK millionaires every week.
How the draws work
The maximum Euromillions jackpot can climb to €190m (roughly £167m). The Thunderball game also takes place this evening at 8pm. The winner of this draw pockets £500,000 if they match five numbers along with the crucial Thunderball number.
Winning combinations
Players with two numbers or one number and two lucky stars or better are winners. To claim the jackpot, players must match all five main numbers and two lucky star numbers.
Past UK winners
In May 2022, Joe and Jess Thwaite, from Gloucester, became the UK's biggest-ever Euromillions winners after netting £184m with a lucky dip ticket. Their record did not last long, though, after another UK winner came forward in July 2022 to claim a jackpot of £195m. However, they have not gone public. Prior to Mr and Mrs Thwaite's win, the previous record was held by an anonymous winner who scooped £170m in October 2019. On June 4, 2021, a ticketholder in the UK scooped the £111m jackpot in the Friday-night draw, matching all seven numbers to become the country's ninth-biggest lottery winner ever at that stage.
In June 2019, a single ticketholder in the UK won £123m in the Tuesday night Euromillions draw. It was the third-biggest Euromillions jackpot in the UK since the draw launched in 2004. It meant they instantly became as rich as Fifty Shades of Grey author E. L. James (£127m) and Led Zeppelin guitarist Jimmy Page (£125m). June 2023 was a lucrative month for UK players with a ticketholder bagging a £117.1m jackpot on June 2 while another winner scooped the £55m jackpot on June 20.
