Lottery fever is sweeping across Europe as the EuroMillions jackpot continues its remarkable climb, now sitting at an estimated €180 million ahead of Friday's draw. This represents the highest jackpot since September 2024.
Draw closes: Friday 31 Jan at 20:00 CET
How We Got Here
The jackpot has been rolling over since January 3rd, when the previous jackpot of €47 million was won by a ticket holder in Belgium. Since then, eight consecutive draws have failed to produce a jackpot winner, causing the prize to grow exponentially.
- January 3: Reset to €17 million
- January 7: Rolled to €29 million
- January 10: Rolled to €54 million
- January 14: Rolled to €82 million
- January 17: Rolled to €110 million
- January 21: Rolled to €143 million
- January 24: Rolled to €162 million
- January 28: Current: €180 million
Approaching the Cap
The EuroMillions jackpot cap is €250 million. If not won, the jackpot will continue growing until it reaches this amount, after which it can roll over a maximum of 5 more times before a mandatory rolldown.
What Would €180 Million Buy?
To put this life-changing sum into perspective:
- 360 luxury homes at €500,000 each
- 900 supercars at €200,000 each
- Your own private island with money to spare
