The European Lottery, now named as EuroMillions (or Euro Millions), launched quickly after final approval from officials and the first draw took place on Friday 13 February 2004. Weekly Euro Millions draws will be made in Paris every Friday.

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 £50 Million!

The Euro Millions draw is a combination draw involving 5 balls drawn from 50, PLUS 2 balls drawn from 9 (termed 'Lucky Stars'). 5 balls plus the 2 lucky stars must be matched to claim the jackpot - giving a 1 in 76 million chance of winning, as opposed to 14 million to 1 for the UK Lotto draw (a 6 from 49 game). Much shorter odds but this will of course result in more rollover jackpots, likely to see jackpots up to 70 million Euros, which attracts more ticket sales. The larger number of smaller prize tiers will provide for an overall chance of a prize of 1 in 24.

Ticket prices are £1.50 in the UK, and 2 Euros in France and Spain.
