Euromillions Lottery Results: What players paying £2.50 should know ahead of the Friday £113m draw

If you hold or plan to buy a ticket for Friday 20 February, the immediate impact falls on players who buy the standard £2. 50 entry: your purchase and timing determine whether you’re in for the evening. The euromillions lottery results for that draw matter most to anyone aiming at the advertised jackpot and the linked Millionaire Maker prize — the headline figures are the £113m jackpot and a guaranteed £1 million raffle prize for one ticket-holder.

Euromillions Lottery Results — practical steps for ticket-holders and what changes now

Here’s the part that matters: if you want to participate in the Friday draw you must buy a ticket before the 7: 30pm cutoff, and that single entry price is listed at £2. 50. The draw schedule compresses decisions into a narrow window — Thunderball happens earlier, then the main EuroMillions draw follows later in the evening. Matching full or partial number combinations still produces cash prizes, so the draw isn’t all-or-nothing for most players.

What’s easy to miss is that the evening contains multiple, linked events: the Thunderball draw takes place ahead of the main EuroMillions draw, and the Millionaire Maker raffle is drawn after the main numbers are pulled.

• Ticket deadline for the Friday draw: buy before 7: 30pm (entry cost £2. 50).
• Thunderball draw timing: around 8: 00pm.
• Main EuroMillions draw timing: around 8: 30pm.
• Millionaire Maker: one guaranteed £1 million ticket is drawn after the main draw.
• Partial matches pay out: five numbers plus one star is listed at £130, 554. 30; five numbers alone is listed at £13, 561. 20.

If you’re wondering why this keeps coming up: the combination of a headline jackpot and a separate guaranteed raffle prize concentrates attention on that evening’s draw and short purchase window.

Draw details, recent carryover and the immediate facts to track

Tuesday’s earlier draw left the jackpot untouched; the winning number combination listed for that draw was 1, 4, 6, 10 and 41 with stars 5 and 12. The fact that the jackpot rolled on means Friday’s pot is being publicized in multiple ways: one set of published figures lists the Friday jackpot at £113m, while another notes the next draw total as 120 million francs. Recent updates indicate these figures differ; details may evolve.

Also relevant for players across participating markets: EuroMillions can be entered in twelve countries, including Switzerland and Liechtenstein. Draw frequency is regular — EuroMillions happens every Tuesday and Friday, while other national games run on other days (a Lotto draw every Wednesday and Saturday, and a Set For Life draw every Monday and Thursday).

The real test will be how the differing jackpot figures are reconciled in published listings and final confirmations after the draw. Recent updates indicate figures may shift; details may evolve. Expect live publications of the numbers as the draws happen this evening.

It’s easy to overlook, but the layered schedule — ticket deadline, Thunderball, main draw, then the raffle — is what creates the short decision window for players aiming at the headline prize.
