€149 million EuroMillions Jackpot Won by Belgian Ticket
€149 million EuroMillions Jackpot Won by Belgian Ticket
There were celebrations in Belgium on Friday. A ticket sold in that country won the €149 million EuroMillions jackpot.
It’s the first time the EuroMillions jackpot has been won since July 26. There have now been 12 jackpot wins this year and this is the second win for Belgium.
Belgian successes
The other Belgian success was in January when a €17 EuroMillions jackpot was landed. When Belgium does win the EuroMillions jackpot, it does tend to be a rather larger one. Three of their last five jackpot wins have been over €140 million.
Last year saw the EuroMillions jackpot won on three occasions. Hopefully, we’ll see more success in the rest of this month.
With the top prize being won in Friday’s draw, we now know for sure the planned EuroMillions Superdraw will take place on Friday September 27.
That draw will see players trying to win an enhanced top prize of €130 million (£110 million). There had been some doubt over it being held due to the current jackpot being so high. That’s not the case now, so remember to get your tickets now from Lottery24.
$800 million Mega Millions jackpot tomorrow
While we had a big win in Friday’s EuroMillions draw, we’re still waiting for the Mega Millions jackpot to be won and tomorrow the top prize is $800 million.
Later on Friday, the Mega Millions draw had a $740 million top prize but again it ended in a rollover.
No tickets were able to match: 06-23-41-59-63 and the Mega Ball 25. There were six tickets that managed to match the five main balls and make their owners millionaires.
There have only been two Mega Millions jackpot wins so far in 2024. The first was in March when a ticket sold in New Jersey, USA won a sensational $1.128 billion.
The jackpot was also won on June 4 with a $552 million prize won by a ticket purchased in Illinois.
SInce then it’s been rollover after rollover but hopefully that will change on Tuesday and the $800 million jackpot will be won.
