Tonight, the National Lottery Lotto draw on August 29, 2025, presents a substantial opportunity for players, with a staggering £8.6 million jackpot available. For decades, the National Lottery has transformed lives by creating millionaires across the country, and this draw is no exception.

To claim the top prize, participants must match all six main numbers along with the bonus ball. In addition to the jackpot, there is a chance to win £1 million by matching five main numbers and the bonus ball, a feat achieved by some lucky players in previous draws. For those who match three or more numbers, smaller cash prizes are also on offer, making the game appealing to a wide range of players.

Exciting Prizes Await Players

The current draw is particularly significant as it features a quadruple rollover, which heightens the excitement surrounding the event. Aside from the Lotto, players can also participate in the Thunderball, which offers a top prize of £500,000. To win this amount, participants must match all five Thunderball numbers along with the bonus ball. Additionally, matching all five regular Thunderball numbers can still yield a prize of £5,000.

Tickets for the Lotto cost £2 each. They can be purchased throughout the week, with the last opportunity to buy a ticket on draw days—Saturday and Wednesday—until 19:30. The Thunderball draw occurs every Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday, providing ample opportunities for players to try their luck.
