The EuroMillions Superdraw is the biggest lottery event in the whole of Europe. Why? Because of the jackpots, of course. Held a few times a year, these special draws bring huge jackpots of at least €100 million. Normally, the first prize can only get to such amounts after a long series of rollovers, but with Superdraws, it can happen from one draw to another! Here is everything you need to know about these exciting events!
What Is a EuroMillions Superdraw Anyway?
The EuroMillions Superdraw is just like a regular draw, except it comes with an enormous jackpot. Regardless of the amount of the previous first prize, for the Superdraw, the jackpot is at least €100 million. For some of the Superdraws, the jackpots were €120 million or even €130 million.
- Superdraws follow the same rules as the regular draws.
- You still have to guess all the 5 main numbers and both the Lucky Stars to win.
- The only difference is the size of the jackpot, which is guaranteed to be at least €100 million.
- If there is no jackpot winner on the Superdraw, the jackpot rolls over.
- Superdraws are announced a few weeks ahead so that you have time to buy EuroMillions tickets.
