Tonight could be a life-changing night for someone, as the second EuroMillions draw of the week rolls around with a massive £26 million jackpot up for grabs. Imagine that: tax-free cash that could completely rewrite your story. From paying off debts to finally taking that dream vacation, the possibilities are practically endless. And if generosity is your style, you could also make a real difference in the lives of friends, family, or causes you care about deeply.
The rules are straightforward but thrilling: to claim the EuroMillions jackpot, a player needs to pick five correct numbers between 1 and 50, along with two Lucky Star numbers from 1 to 12. It might sound simple, but the excitement lies in the sheer unpredictability. Every Tuesday and Friday at 8:45 p.m., players across the UK hold their breath, hoping tonight might be their night. And for just £2.50 per ticket, you’re also automatically entered into the UK Millionaire Maker draw, which produces fresh millionaires each week. That means even if the EuroMillions jackpot slips by, another chance at instant millionaire status is already in play.
Before the EuroMillions numbers are drawn, the night also features the Thunderball game, where a separate pot of up to £500,000 is up for grabs. Tickets cost £1 per line, and players select five numbers plus one Thunderball number—or opt for a Lucky Dip, letting the computer pick random numbers for them. The Thunderball draw happens slightly earlier, at 8 p.m., giving players two thrilling lottery experiences in one evening.
Tonight, the winning Thunderball numbers are 5, 8, 9, 31, 35, with 13 as the Thunderball. And for EuroMillions, the numbers are 5, 10, 23, 31, 37, with Lucky Stars 3 and 11. Whether you’re a regular player or just dipping your toes in for fun, seeing these numbers pop up can spark serious daydreams about what life might look like on the other side of a win.
