Since the end of March 2022, the Eurojackpot lottery has been drawn twice a week, every Tuesday and Friday, offering players more chances to win. The latest winning numbers were announced on Tuesday, April 15, 2025, revealing a combination of 5 out of 50 numbers: 8, 11, 13, 33, and 35, alongside the Euro numbers 1 and 10.
The introduction of a second drawing each week has transformed the Eurojackpot experience. Prior to this change, the lottery was drawn only once a week, but now, as of the drawing on March 25, 2022, players can participate in two draws each week. This means that the jackpot rolls over from one drawing to the next, increasing the potential prize money if the first prize tier is not won. The maximum jackpot amount stands at an impressive 120 million euros, with a minimum of 10 million euros guaranteed for each drawing.
For those looking to try their luck, playing the Eurojackpot is straightforward. Participants select five numbers from a pool of 50 and two additional numbers from a pool of 12, totaling seven numbers. Each game costs two euros, plus a processing fee. However, players should be aware of the common pitfalls that can drastically reduce their chances of winning. Despite the allure of the jackpot, the odds of winning remain quite steep, at approximately 1 in 139,838,160.
The Eurojackpot is played in 18 European countries, including Denmark, Germany, Estonia, Finland, Italy, Iceland, Croatia, Latvia, Lithuania, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Sweden, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, the Czech Republic, and Hungary. This broad participation contributes to the substantial prize pool, making it an attractive option for lottery enthusiasts across the continent.
The drawing of the Eurojackpot winning numbers takes place every Tuesday and Friday evening between 8 PM and 9 PM in Helsinki, Finland. Players must submit their entries before the deadline, which is set at 6:45 PM on both drawing days. This ensures that all entries are accounted for in the upcoming draw.
Alongside the excitement of the winning numbers, the odds of winning in various tiers are also announced shortly after the draws. For example, for the April 15, 2025 draw, the winning odds were as follows:
