The National Lottery has been creating huge winners since its very first draw on November 19, 1994, when seven players split a jackpot worth more than £5.8 million. Since then, the stories just keep getting bigger.

One of the largest prizes ever won by a single UK ticket holder was an incredible £42 million back in 1996. Another unforgettable winner was Gareth Bull, a builder who scooped £41 million in November 2020 and later replaced his bungalow with a luxury mansion complete with a swimming pool.

A few other memorable lottery wins include:

  • Sue Davies, 64, celebrated the end of five months of shielding during the pandemic by buying a ticket — and won £500,000
  • Sandra Devine, 36, accidentally picked up the wrong Scratchcard and walked away with an amazing £300,000
  • Karl Crompton became a millionaire at just 23 years old after winning £11 million in 1996

Lottery jackpots around the world have also reached jaw-dropping levels over the years. Some of the biggest ever include:

  • £1.308 billion Powerball jackpot won in the United States in January 2016
  • £1.267 billion Mega Millions prize claimed by a winner in South Carolina in March 2019
  • Massive Powerball payouts worth more than £600 million in Wisconsin, Massachusetts, Iowa, and New York

Closer to home, the biggest National Lottery jackpot available in the UK reached £66 million in January last year, with two lucky ticket holders sharing the prize.

Of course, the odds of winning remain incredibly slim — estimated at around 1 in 14 million — but someone has to win eventually.

And as lottery fans always say: you’ve got to be in it to win it.
