EuroMillions Lucky Stars
The two Lucky Stars are what make EuroMillions distinctive. Drawn from a separate pool of 1 to 12 alongside the five main numbers, they are a market you can bet in their own right — here is how they work.
How the Lucky Stars work
Every EuroMillions draw picks two Lucky Stars from a pool of 1 to 12, in addition to the five main numbers from 1 to 50. In the European game you need both Lucky Stars plus all five main numbers to win the jackpot. When you bet, you can treat the Lucky Stars as their own fixed-odds market — shorter odds because the pool is small — or fold them into a combination with main numbers for a bigger payout. The payout for each is shown before you confirm. See the EuroMillions guide for the full picture, or odds and payouts for how markets are priced.
