How to try your luck at EuroMillions?

Participation is possible on e-lotto or by going to a tobacconist or bookstore to buy a ticket directly. Three ballot formats are available: single ballot, multiple ballot and Quick Pick.

• The simple ballot costs 2.5 euros per combination and per draw. The game is between 1 and 6 combinations. Each grid has 50 numbers and 12 stars. You must tick 5 numbers and 2 stars per grid. It is possible to increase your chances of winning by choosing the number of draws in which you wish to participate.
• The multiple ballot allows you to tick up to 10 numbers and 12 stars per grid – this gives you more chances of obtaining the winning combination. You can choose a number of consecutive draws.
• For a more risky game, without a precise lucky number, choose the Quick Pick. The computer chooses your numbers and stars for you.

EuroMillions draw results drop every Tuesday and Friday and are broadcast on the front page around 11 p.m. To have one or more winning grids checked, go to an approved point of sale.
