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. Read more EuroMillions stories NO LUCK EuroMillions jackpot rolls over AGAIN as UK'S biggest ever prize at £208m unclaimed 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. 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. 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. Another ticket, which was snagged in the UK, matched all five main numbers and two Lucky Stars. It came just weeks after two players from the same county scooped £1m each.
