What makes this win so historic?
The EuroJackpot had grown over several weeks and finally reached the magical cap of 120 million Euro. This sum is the maximum jackpot that EuroJackpot can pay out – an amount that is rarely reached.
€120,000,000 – The highest EuroJackpot win of all time, achieved with a single ticket from Berlin.
The winner had submitted their numbers via an online provider and only learned of their luck the next morning. The winning numbers were 3, 6, 17, 34, 41 and the Euro numbers 3 and 4.
The Jackpot Cap
Since March 2022, the maximum jackpot amount for EuroJackpot is capped at 120 million Euro. Once this amount is reached and not won, the jackpot remains at this level until it is cracked. Excess funds flow into the next lower prize tier.
