A lucky ticket holder in the United Kingdom has won an impressive £26 million in the latest EuroMillions draw held on October 4, 2025. This victory marks the third time a UK player has claimed the top EuroMillions prize this year, following a £65 million win on Valentine’s Day and an £83 million jackpot in January.

The winning numbers in Friday night’s draw were 06, 12, 18, 25, 41, with the Lucky Star numbers being 02 and 06. Following the announcement, Andy Carter, senior winners’ adviser at Allwyn, the operator of The National Lottery, expressed excitement about the win.

“What a fantastic night for EuroMillions players,” Carter stated. “A single UK ticket-holder has scooped tonight’s £26 million jackpot! That now makes it three UK EuroMillions jackpot wins so far this year.”

Carter urged all players to check their tickets and contact the lottery office if they believe they are the fortunate winner.

In addition to the EuroMillions draw, the winning numbers for the Thunderball, which occurred on the same night, were 07, 16, 26, 31, 37, with the Thunderball number being 01.

Carter also highlighted the broader impact of participating in the National Lottery, noting that each week, players contribute around £30 million to projects funded by the lottery. Since its inception, more than £50 billion has been raised for various good causes across the UK. These contributions support a range of initiatives from the arts and sports sectors to local community projects and the preservation of iconic British landmarks.

The recent jackpot win not only brings personal fortune to the winner but also reinforces the ongoing commitment of lottery players to support important community and national projects. As excitement builds around the lottery, players are reminded that every ticket purchased serves a greater purpose beyond just the potential for financial gain.
