In Switzerland, the EuroMillions draw on August 7, 2026, saw a jackpot of 103 million Swiss francs being won, as reported by Südostschweiz; the next draw was set to offer 16 million francs in the jackpot. The odds of winning the top prize remain at 1 in 139.8 million.

How to Play and Win

To win the EuroMillions top prize, players must match five main numbers and two lucky stars, as outlined by MARCA, as Spain’s participants also had the chance to enter the El Millón draw, which guarantees a single £1 million winner. The UK automatically includes this feature in every EuroMillions ticket.

Players can check their tickets by comparing their selected numbers and stars to the winning combination, Spain’s MARCA and antena3.com both provided detailed instructions for verifying entries and outlined the prize categories based on how many numbers and stars are matched.

Geographic Participation and Prize Distribution

The EuroMillions lottery is played in nine European countries: Spain, the UK, France, Portugal, Belgium, Luxembourg, Ireland, Austria, and Switzerland, according to MARCA. The 50% of the total revenue from all participating countries is allocated to prizes, which are divided into 13 categories based on the number of numbers and stars matched.

If no one matches all five numbers and two stars, the jackpot rolls over to the next draw; the largest possible prize, if no one wins the top category for four consecutive draws, can reach up to 190 million euros. In such cases, the accumulated jackpot would be distributed among the winners in the next highest category.

The EuroMillions results for August 28, 2026, were published across multiple platforms, including The Independent, MARCA, and antena3.com, ensuring transparency and accessibility for participants across Europe.
