One fortunate participant could secure a life-altering financial future this evening as the National Lottery holds its latest Set For Life draw. The jackpot promises a staggering £10,000 every single month for the next 30 years.
How to Play and Win the Set For Life Jackpot
To be in with a chance of winning the top prize, players must match all five main numbers plus the crucial Life Ball. Entrants can choose their own six numbers or opt for a Lucky Dip, where numbers are selected randomly. Each line costs £1.50. While the grand prize is the ultimate goal, the draw also offers smaller cash amounts for matching fewer numbers. These draws occur twice weekly, on Mondays and Thursdays.
The odds of landing the monthly £10,000 for three decades are approximately one in 15.3 million. Tickets for the draw on Monday, January 12, 2026, could be purchased up until 6:30pm, with a final entry deadline of 7:30pm.
Tonight's Draw Time and What Happens Next
The draw itself is scheduled to take place at 8pm tonight. We will be providing the winning numbers live as soon as they are announced. This format offers a unique prize structure compared to traditional lump-sum lottery wins, providing long-term financial security for the lucky winner.
If no one claims the top tier prize tonight, the excitement will roll over to the next draw. Whether you're checking a ticket or just following the action, tonight could mark the beginning of an extraordinary new chapter for one UK player.
