EuroMillions saw the UK join forces initially with France and Spain to launch a lottery likely to see the largest jackpots in the world. The launch took place in London on 5 February 2004.

Belgium, Luxembourg, Switzerland, Portugal, Ireland and Austria have joined since the launch. More European lotteries are expected to follow resulting in even bigger jackpots.

EuroMillions launched quickly after final approval from officials and the first draw took place on Friday 13 February 2004. Weekly draws are made in Paris every Friday. A second draw was added on Tuesday from 10th May 2011.

Camelot has said that "approximately 50% of the sales will go towards prizes, with approximately 12.5% of sales funding the top tier prize level". There are 12 prize tiers (detailed below) in total with jackpots expected to be in the region of 14 million UK pounds.

Jackpots Up To £100 Million!

The EuroMillions draw is a combination draw involving 5 balls drawn from 50, PLUS 2 balls drawn from 11 (termed 'Lucky Stars'). This was changed from 9 Lucky Star balls in May 2011.

5 balls plus the 2 lucky stars must be matched to claim the jackpot - giving a 1 in 116 million chance of winning, as opposed to 14 million to 1 for the UK Lotto draw (a more typical '6 from 49' game).

So the odds are pretty tough, but this does of course result in more rollovers, with rollover jackpots reaching up to 100 million Euros and more. Which of course attracts more ticket sales.

The larger number of smaller prize tiers provides for an overall chance of a prize of 1 in 13. The Match 2 prize level added when the new Tuesday draw was added improved this from 1 in 24.

Ticket prices are £2 in the UK (including Millionaires Raffle), and €2 in France and Spain.
