National Lottery: EuroMillions rolls on after £124m draw with new millionaire created
The national lottery saw its Tuesday draw leave the £124 million EuroMillions jackpot unclaimed, producing a rollover and a fresh set of outcomes that matter now for players checking tickets and planning stakes ahead of Friday’s bigger prize.
Tuesday, February 24 draw: winning EuroMillions numbers and a £124m pot
The EuroMillions draw held on Tuesday, February 24, 2026 produced main numbers 10, 27, 40, 43 and 47, with Lucky Stars 6 and 10. No ticket matched all five main numbers plus both Lucky Stars, leaving the £124 million jackpot unclaimed and setting up a rollover.
That same Tuesday draw’s Thunderball result was 7, 8, 11, 14 and 19, with the Thunderball number 13. The Millionaire Maker code for that draw was HFVG69795, creating one new UK millionaire who will be able to claim a £1 million prize.
Jackpot roll to Friday, February 27 and alternate Friday numbers cited
The unclaimed £124 million jackpot rolled forward to a larger prize, cited at £139 million for the Friday, February 27, 2026 EuroMillions draw. One account of the Friday draw noted main numbers 14, 24, 27, 39 and 42 with Lucky Stars 6 and 10, and listed a separate Millionaire Maker code, HGVX32794, for a £1 million UK millionaire created that night.
That same coverage also described the Friday EuroMillions as a "mega rollover" and at one point referenced £27 million being up for grabs in a EuroMillions draw on that night—distinct statements that appear in the record alongside the £139 million figure.
Thunderball outcomes and prize details across draws
Thunderball top-prize details appear across the draws: the Thunderball top prize is £500, 000. The Tuesday Thunderball numbers were 7, 8, 11, 14 and 19 with Thunderball 13, while another set of Thunderball winning numbers listed for a separate draw were 11, 16, 26, 29 and 34.
Thunderball draws are held on Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday, giving multiple chances to hit the £500, 000 top prize each week.
National Lottery: how to check tickets, claim windows and where unclaimed money goes
Players are urged to check retail tickets in store or use the app, and to check email if they bought tickets online. Anyone who believes they have a winning ticket is asked to call the National Lottery Line on 0333 234 5050 for guidance.
Prizes must be claimed within just under six months of the draw date; any unclaimed winnings after that deadline are recycled into the National Lottery’s community fund to support projects across the UK. Since its launch in 1994, the National Lottery has paid out more than £95 billion in prizes.
Ticket prices, schedules and other National Lottery games
EuroMillions tickets cost £2. 50 per play, with draws held every Tuesday and Friday and sales on draw days available up until 7. 30pm. The wider slate of National Lottery games includes Lotto on Wednesday and Saturday, Set For Life on Monday and Thursday, and Thunderball on Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday.
One schedule note in the coverage pointed to a Lotto rollover for an upcoming Saturday with a jackpot of £3. 8 million, underscoring multiple live opportunities for players across the week.
Prize mechanics and what changed between the draws
To win the EuroMillions jackpot a ticket must match five main numbers and two Lucky Stars; when no ticket achieves that, the top prize rolls over to the next draw, as happened after the February 24 draw. Each EuroMillions entry automatically includes a UK Millionaire Maker code, guaranteeing one £1 million UK winner in each draw; the Tuesday code was HFVG69795 and a separate Friday code was listed as HGVX32794.
Coverage of the outcomes also included commentary that winning large, tax-free sums can be life-changing for winners, a point reflected in public reaction and coverage of the draws.
