The National Lottery will share the results of the Lotto draw tonight, with a jackpot of £2million up for grabs. A jackpot can only rollover five times before it must be won in the following draw. If no player matches all the numbers on the sixth draw, a rolldown occurs, and the entire prize will be split among winners in the next tiers. Tonight, however, if no winner is present, the jackpot will rollover, as one lucky winner scooped £15m on Saturday. 
Also available in tonight’s draw is the Thunderball, offering players the chance to win a life-changing prize. Anyone who manages to match all five numbers along with the Thunderball could secure a jackpot of £500,000.
This is a live blog. Follow more for the coverage. 
One lucky player has scooped the jackpot after matching all six numbers and won an incredible £15 million on Saturday, according to The National Lottery website.
A further 130 people matched five numbers, winning £1,750 each.
In total, 1,891,377 people have won tonight, with a prize fund of £25,569,394.
Congratulations to the jackpot winner! Be sure to check your numbers to see if it’s you.
The prize details are as follows:
– 6 Main numbers – Jackpot; Shared equally if there are multiple winners.
– 5 Main + Bonus Ball – £1 million
– 5 Main numbers – £1,750
– 4 Main numbers – £140
– 3 Main numbers – £30
– 2 Main Numbers – Free Lucky Dip; Entered into a future draw.
To play the standard UK Lotto, you must select six numbers from 1 to 59. Draws take place every Wednesday and Saturday, and the goal is to match your chosen numbers with the randomly drawn numbers to win a prize.
You can choose to play your selected numbers for a single draw or for up to several weeks in advance. A single line of numbers for one draw costs £2.00.
You can play multiple lines at once (up to seven lines per slip and 10 slips at a time).
During the draw, six main numbers and one “Bonus Ball” are randomly selected. You win a prize by matching at least two of your selected numbers with the main numbers drawn.
In a “Must Be Won” draw, if no one matches all six main numbers for the jackpot, the prize money “rolls down” and is shared among players who matched two or more main numbers, boosting their prizes.
You can purchase tickets from a physical retailer or online via the National Lottery website.
Good evening and welcome to our coverage of the Lotto draw, where an incredible £2 million is up for grabs.
Please follow along for updates as they become available.

The lottery frenzy is still spiking as the Mega Millions jackpot inches closer to a billion. The Mega Millions grand prize is growing quickly, and is the ninth-largest Mega Millions jackpot of all time.
Some players are hoping a $5 Mega Millions ticket will make them a multimillionaire. Because as they say in the lottery business, “it could happen to you.”
After no one matched all five numbers plus the Mega Ball in the Friday, Oct. 24, Mega Millions drawing for $680 million, the jackpot jumped to $714 million with a cash option of $334.1 million for this Tuesday’s drawing.
Although no one claimed the jackpot, there was one big winner in Friday night’s Mega Millions drawing. A ticket purchased in Connecticut matched 5 plus the 2X Multiplier for a $2 million prize.
The winning numbers for the Mega Millions drawing on Tuesday, Oct. 28, were 2-19-33-53-61 and the Mega Ball was 14. Those numbers produced a rollover.
The Mega Millions jackpot for Friday now jumps to $754 million, with a cash option of $352.8 million.
Mega Millions tickets start at $5 apiece. Below are some frequently asked questions about the game, when winning tickets expire in Florida (it differs state by state) and lottery odds. Good luck!
Mega Millions lottery drawings are at 11 p.m. ET every Tuesday and Friday, including holidays. The winning numbers for the Mega Millions drawing on Tuesday, Oct. 28, were 2-19-33-53-61 and the Mega Ball was 14.
In case you’re wondering, the winning numbers for the drawing on Friday, Oct. 24, were 11-18-31-51-56 and the Mega Ball was 24.
The next Mega Millions lottery drawing will be on Halloween, at 11 p.m. ET Friday, Oct. 31, 2025.
The Mega Millions jackpot was last won on Friday, June 27, 2025, when a ticket in Virginia matched all five numbers and the Mega Ball to win a $348 million prize.
Below is a recap of lottery drawings for the latest streak.
Prizes for Florida Lottery must be claimed within 180 days (six months) from the date of the drawing. To claim a single-payment cash option, a winner has within the first 60 days after the applicable draw date to claim it.
The odds of winning are pretty low. According to the Mega Millions site, players have a 1 in 290,472,336 chance to match all five white balls plus the gold Mega Ball.
According to Florida Lottery’s website, winners cannot remain anonymous: “Florida law mandates that the Florida Lottery provide records containing information such as the winner’s name, city of residence; game won, date won, and amount won to any third party who requests the information.”
However, the site states, the “names of lottery winners claiming prizes of $250,000 or greater will be temporarily exempt from public disclosure for 90 days from the date the prize is claimed, unless otherwise waived by the winner.”
Lottery experts and lawyers have said there are ways to remain anonymous if you win.
As of Oct. 28, 2025, these are the largest Mega Millions prizes in the history of the game, according to megamillions.com.
As of Oct. 28, 2025, there have been 13 lottery jackpots that have reached or surpassed $1 billion. Only once has a jackpot surpassed $2 billion. These are the biggest lottery jackpots in U.S. history.

CHARDON, Ohio — Two lucky Ohio Lottery players will split a Rolling Cash 5 jackpot worth $182,000 after both purchased winning tickets at the same Chardon gas station, lottery officials said.
The winning tickets for the Nov. 10 drawing were sold at Hambden Corners, 13906 Gar Highway, according to the Ohio Lottery. Both players manually selected the winning numbers — 3, 6, 7, 15 and 34.
Because the jackpot is being shared, each winner will receive $66,316.25 after 27% in state and federal taxes are withheld, the lottery said.
Rolling Cash 5 drawings take place daily, with jackpots starting at $100,000. The odds of matching all five numbers are 1 in 575,757, lottery officials said.
