Superdraws are special events which only take place a few times a year. They work in the same way as regular draws, apart from one exciting difference - the jackpot is guaranteed to be huge! There doesn’t need to be a long run of rollovers to build up a nine-figure prize; instead, you can mark the date on your calendar to make sure that you take part.
The money for Superdraws comes from a Reserve Fund - a pot which receives a small portion of the prize fund from every draw. The Reserve Fund is primarily used to ensure that the minimum jackpot of €17 million can always be offered, but it is also used to pay for various promotions such as Superdraws. Even if the jackpot is won in the draw on Tuesday 22nd September, it will be bumped all the way up to €130 million for the Superdraw.
It sometimes happens that the jackpot has already rolled higher than the advertised amount as a result of several rollovers. In fact, this was the case earlier in the summer when a Superdraw was scheduled for Friday 5th June, but the jackpot at the time had reached €159 million after 12 consecutive draws without a winner.
When this scenario occurs, the larger jackpot continues to roll as normal and the Superdraw is effectively postponed. Back in June, a ticket holder from Belgium eventually landed €174 million to become the country’s biggest-ever winner.
September Superdraws
A September Superdraw has become something of a EuroMillions tradition, as there has been one every year since 2020. It is actually the month which has seen more Superdraws than any other, having witnessed 10 since these special events started in 2007.
Three of the past six September Superdraws have been won on the night (once in Spain, once in France and once in Belgium). Will fortune favour a ticket holder from one of those countries again, or will the jackpot go elsewhere this time?
If the jackpot rolls over on the night of the Superdraw, it can keep going until there is a winner or until it hits its limit of €250 million. At this point, the jackpot is capped and can only stay at this value for a maximum of four draws before it must be won.
It has already been a year of big jackpots, with five of more than €100 million paid out since the start of 2026. Perhaps the upcoming Superdraw will set the platform for the biggest win of the lot!
In the meantime, EuroMillions draws continue every Tuesday and Friday night. Don’t forget to check the latest results as soon as they are available.
