EuroMillions results: Winning lottery numbers for £168million draw on Friday, May 6

Tonight's EuroMillions results have dropped and the prize is a jaw-dropping £168m!

The biggest UK EuroMillions jackpot prize was won by an anonymous ticketholder in October 2019.

And the incredible prize could see you never work again, take plenty of holidays, and perhaps even buy some nice cars along the way.

To be in with a chance of winning the EuroMillions, select five numbers from 1-50 and two Lucy Star numbers from 1-12.

To win the eight-figure prize, you must match all five main numbers plus the two Lucky Stars. The odds are 1 in 139,838,160.

This evening's National Lottery EuroMillions numbers are: 03, 08, 18, 24, 40 and the Lucky Stars are: 03 and 11.

Tonight's Thunderball numbers are: 02, 18, 23, 31, 37 and the Thunderball is: 09.

EuroMillions draws take place every Tuesday and Friday. The deadline for ticket purchases on draw days is 7.30pm.

As well as the UK, the game is offered to players in Andorra, Austria, Belgium, France, Ireland, the Isle of Man, Liechtenstein, Luxembourg, Monaco, Portugal, Spain, and Switzerland.

The biggest ever Lotto winner was created in April 2016 when an anonymous player banked £35m.

In January 2016, two ticket-holders walked away with £33m each.

Before that, a main Lotto game jackpot of £42,008,610 was drawn in January 1996 and split between three anonymous winners, with each being awarded £14,002,870.

A single ticket also won £26.4 million on the New Year's Eve Lotto back in 2016.

The UK National Lottery was first drawn on November 19, 1994.

Half of all money spent by players goes to the prize fund, with 28% to good causes, 12% to the Government as duty and 5% to retailers.

The final 5% has operated the lottery throughout its history.
