EuroMillions Superdraws

EuroMillions Superdraws

EuroMillions Superdraws and Event Draws are an exciting part of playing in this particular lottery. These are special drawings where the jackpot is set to a fixed, guaranteed prize amount, most commonly 100 million euros but this number has risen to 130 million euros on a few occasions that are referred to as Event Draws.

These huge jackpots are set at regular intervals, usually twice per year and what distinguishes between them is the fact that a Super Draw jackpot that is not won will rollover to the drawing, while an Event Draw jackpot prize is distributed between the winners in the next tier below – who have matched 5 main numbers plus 1 Lucky Star.

As mentioned before, EuroMillions Superdraws generally take place twice a year but the dates are not fixed as the lotteries organizers want to maintain an element of surprise when it comes to those big and exciting prize jackpots.
The first Super Draw took place on February 9th 2007 and since then we have had the following SuperDraws and Event Draws:

October 4th 2011 – €100 million Superdraw
May 10th 2011 – €100 million Superdraw
