Will November End with Mega Millions and EuroMillions Jackpot Wins?

The final week of November gets underway with two massive jackpots. Tonight in the USA, the Mega Millions jackpot is $489 million. Tomorrow’s EuroMillions draw has a top prize of €208 million (£173 million).

Let’s start by taking a look at tonight’s Mega Millions draw with its $489 million jackpot. The top prize in the Mega Millions draw hasn’t been won since September 10 when  a ticket sold in Texas won a $810 million prize.

Winning the jackpot hasn’t been an easy task in 2024. In fact, it’s only been achieved on three occasions this year. We had to wait until March for the first time a ticket won the jackpot. An incredible $1.128 billion was won by a ticket that had been purchased in New Jersey. Then in June, an Illinois ticket purchase won the $552 million top prize.

Overdue a November win

That’s just three jackpot wins but nearly $2.5 billion won. Last year saw the top prize won ten times, including four wins in January. Not since 2016 has the Mega Millions jackpot been won in November.

Tomorrow sees the latest EuroMillions draw with a €208 million (£173 million) jackpot. We’ve been waiting for the top prize to be won since October 4 when a ticket sold in Spain won a €162 million (£135 million) prize.

The largest EuroMIllions jackpot win this year was won in June. That was when a Portuguese ticket scooped a €213 million (£180.7 million) jackpot.

13 wins so far

2024 has seen the EuroMillions jackpot won on 13 occasions, that’s compared to 20 wins last year. The last week of November has been a lucky one in the past. Last year, a ticket that had been purchased in Luxembourg landed a €83 million top prize.

This November 26 draw takes place exactly three years after a French ticket won a €162 million jackpot. Not since 2020 have we gone through November without seeing the EuroMillions top prize being won. There are two draws left before December arrives  so let’s hope we see a winner.
