Just Over a Week to the €130m EuroMillions Superdraw
We’re just over a week away from the January 26 EuroMillions Superdraw with its €130 million jackpot. It’s already been a big week with a ticket sold in France scooping a €87.9 million top prize in Tuesday’s draw.
Big win for France
That was the first EuroMillions jackpot win of the year after six draws without a win. It’s the 125th time that a ticket sold in France has won the jackpot, just one behind the record holders. That record is currently held by the UK who have sold 126 jackpot winning tickets.
Historic draw
Now we’re just two draws away from the first EuroMillions Superdraw of 2024. Whatever the result, history will be made. This is the first time one has been held in the month of January. Will a ticket purchased at Lottery24 become a multi-millionaire?
It’s also the first time that Superdraws will be held in consecutive months. The last one was held in December 2023 when the top prize was €200 million. This time it’s €130 million and everyone buying a ticket will hope they are the lucky winner.
Last month’s EuroMillions Superdraw ended in a rollover. That saw the top prize rise eventually reach the jackpot cap of €240 million. That was the highest ever jackpot and was won by a ticket sold in Austria a week later.
Now we could be on course for more EuroMillions history. The jackpot cap has again been raised and is now €250 million. That’s the highest amount the top prize can reach. Perhaps if we see more rollovers, that record amount could be up for grabs sometime in February.
The last time a Superdraw produced a winner was in September of last year. On that occasion, a ticket purchased in France was the lucky one to land the jackpot. That was the second successive Superdraw to produce a winner.
It had also happened in June with a UK ticket landing the top prize. That win for the UK was the 14th time they’d landed a EuroMillions Superdraw jackpot.
