What will happen if EuroMillions meets its maximum £208m jackpot – as largest EVER lottery prize up for grabs tomorrow
ONE lucky winner could be instantly catapulted to extreme wealth on Friday, as a huge £208 million jackpot is again up for grabs. The hefty sum will rollover again, after no one won the prize money in 1 If there is a sole jackpot winner, they will become richer than Adele and Dua Lip Credit: Getty The EuroMillions reached its maximum jackpot on Friday, June 6 and can roll over five times, but what happens if no one What happens if no one wins? As the prize money is now capped at £208 million, a "Must Be Won" draw will be triggered after the fifth draw, which will be on Friday, June 20. This means that the money will have to be given to someone that night. Players can therefore win the huge sum of cash, without matching all five numbers and two lucky stars. If no one matches the five numbers and two lucky stars, the fund will roll down to the next tier, meaning anyone who matches five numbers and one lucky star will share the £208 million sum. If no one is a winner in this tier, then players who have matched just the five main numbers will share the prize. The jackpot will keep moving down a tier, until there is a winner. If there is a sole jackpot winner, they will become richer than Adele and Dua Lipa. Most read in The Sun What has National Lottery said about the draw? 'This Friday EuroMillions gets even bigger", Andy Carter, senior winners' adviser at Allwyn said. 'Not only will we see the £208 million EuroMillions jackpot up for grabs – which would make the biggest-ever National Lottery winner – but there will also be an incredible 13 guaranteed UK millionaires made through EuroMillions Millionaire Maker. I won lottery prize but Tesco refused to hand over cash due to ridiculous policy and now I'm banned from store 'That's a not-so-unlucky Friday 13th for the lucky ticket-holders who end up bagging these life-changing prizes. 'Get your tickets early to ensure you'll be in with a chance of a massive life-changing win.' He added: 'The EuroMillions jackpot is now capped, so any money that would have gone into increasing the jackpot now boosts prizes in the next winning prize tier, meaning that we could see multiple UK players banking huge prizes for matching just the five main numbers and one Lucky Star.' What is the UK's biggest lottery jackpot? Back in 2022, an anonymous UK ticket holder won £195million on the EuroMillions, making the current record holder for the prize. Everything you need to know about Lottery and EuroMillions What happens to the EuroMillions prize money if no one claims it? Who are the Who is How many times Which is the What are the What happens when What are the Horoscope luck: Just two months earlier, Joe and Jess Thwaite, from Gloucester, bagged £184,262,899 with a Lucky Dip ticket for the draw on May 10. The UK's third biggest win came after an anonymous ticket-holder scooped the £177million jackpot on November 26 last year. It came after 11 millionaires were made on the National Lottery draw in just one week in 2024. One lucky Brit won a cool £33million with their Euromillions ticket.
