Belgian Ticket Holder Claims £106 Million EuroMillions Jackpot
On January 30, 2026, a single ticket-holder from Belgium became Europe’s newest millionaire by winning a remarkable £106 million EuroMillions jackpot. This monumental prize followed a fifth and final rollover, which made the excitement around the draw palpable across the continent.
EuroMillions Jackpot Details
The winning numbers for the EuroMillions draw were 14, 18, 31, 35, and 46, complemented by Lucky Stars 7 and 11. This draw was highly anticipated as it marked the culmination of a quintuple rollover. In the lead-up to the draw, ticket purchases surged, with sales closing at 7:30 PM.
Other Winning Highlights
The EuroMillions event was not only about the massive jackpot. A UK player also secured £1 million through the Millionaire Maker, identified by the unique code HVRM 54507. Additionally, the Thunderball draw yielded its own excitement, offering a separate £500,000 prize. The Thunderball winning numbers were 24, 29, 36, 38, 39, and the Thunderball number was 13.
Statistics and Odds
- EuroMillions Odds: 1 in 139,838,160 for the jackpot; 1 in 13 for any prize.
- Thunderball Odds: Win up to £500,000 by matching five numbers from 1 to 39 plus the Thunderball from 1 to 14.
- Previous Rollover: The draw reached £106 million after a previous £94 million jackpot went unclaimed.
Implications of the Draw
This historic draw was broadcast live at 8:30 PM, amplifying the thrill as hopeful players waited for results. A notable detail was that the UK had previously set its record for the highest EuroMillions prize at £199,343.80, won by matching five main numbers and one Lucky Star.
Despite the absence of the top jackpot winner from the UK, the allure of EuroMillions remained strong. The National Lottery also reminded players of an unclaimed £1 million Millionaire Maker prize from Birmingham, and alerted ticket holders to check for forgotten entries.
Future Draws and Chances
EuroMillions draws occur twice a week on Tuesdays and Fridays, creating ongoing opportunities for players. The next draw is set for February 3, 2026. With over £13 million in unclaimed prizes across both the Lotto and EuroMillions, the excitement continues as many seek their chance at a life-changing win.
In conclusion, the Belgian ticket-holder’s win underscores the transformative power of the EuroMillions lottery. While dreams can come true for some, countless others will continue to chase their fortunes in the hopes of joining the ranks of successful players.
