EuroMillions Creates UK Lottery History as the Roll Series Raises a Double Record-breaking £190M for Good Causes from £550M of Sales

Allwyn, the operator of The National Lottery, has confirmed that the most recent set of EuroMillions draws were a double record-breaker in the UK. The roll series that lasted over ten weeks generated both the highest-ever sales and the biggest-ever returns to Good Causes in the history of EuroMillions.
The roll series started on 8 April and finished on Tuesday 17 June when one lucky winner in Ireland scooped the £208m (€250m) jackpot. With 21 draws, it was the second-longest roll series in EuroMillions history. While a set of EuroMillions rolls in 2019 had two more draws, this one in 2025 has delivered the best-ever financial returns.
At its peak on Friday 6 June, there were 18,600 tickets a minute being sold across the UK and the roll series generated the highest-ever UK sales of over £550m. More importantly, Good Causes are the major beneficiaries – as EuroMillions players in the UK have raised an incredible £190m for community, cultural, heritage, and sports projects from just this roll series alone.
This continues to build on Allwyn’s already strong performance in the first six months of the year as the result of steady draw game sales, as well as continued launches of new marketing initiatives and Instants games.
Andria Vidler, Chief Executive Officer of National Lottery operator, Allwyn, said: “For our winners and players, Good Causes beneficiaries and our retail partners, this EuroMillions draw series was a record-breaker that is going to change the lives of tens of thousands of people across the UK.
“What does £190m for Good Causes look like? Well, with around 75% of grants awarded being for less than £20,000, that means we can support thousands of projects across the country. From Kemnay Bowling Club in Aberdeenshire to The Gentlemen Songsters in Rhondda, from Let’s Talk About It mental health support group in Manchester to the Derryloran Scout Group in Cookstown. All across the UK, The National Lottery is helping people impacted by the cost-of-living crisis, supporting our environment, nurturing the next generation of sporting stars, and making the arts accessible to all.”
