You can include contributions ‘in kind’, e.g. of resources or time – these should be clearly identified as such in your budget and you will need to demonstrate that cast and crew are being paid fairly. If, having read the above eligibility criteria, you’re still unsure whether you are eligible to apply for Discovery funding, please contact the team on In exceptional circumstances you can request permission to apply with a principal photography date that is less than 20 weeks from the closing date of the fund. Please note that we don’t expect to provide many awards at the maximum level of £1,000,000 per project, and our award amounts will generally range from £500,000 to £850,000. We have limited funds and may therefore only be able to offer you a lower amount than the one you request. For example, a £10 bonus with a 50 times wagering requirement requires the consumer to play through £500 before the winnings can be withdrawn.

Saturday 6th May – Millions of players were royally rewarded in a special draw to celebrate King Charles’ coronation. The £20 million jackpot rolled down, boosting every prize tier considerably, including a £278 prize for matching four numbers. Wednesday 25th September – A bumper Christmas Day draw saw the jackpot raised to £15 million, and it had to be won! As no tickets matched all the numbers, the jackpot had to be split between all 1.8 million players who picked up prizes.

Take a look at all the biggest Lotto events to have taken place, from the most recent Must Be Won draws back to the day the National Lottery first launched in 1994.

Project and team details

‘Must Be Won’ Rolldown draws were introduced, meaning the jackpot could only roll over five times. The Lotto Millionaire Raffle game ended, allowing bigger cash prizes to be offered in the main game. Saturday 4th September – To celebrate the Olympics and Paralympics, the National Lottery organised a draw where the jackpot had to be won and was worth £20 million. As there were no entries that matched all the main numbers, the jackpot money was spread between all the other prize winners. To celebrate the end of another fantastic year, we have a special present waiting for you under the tree. The Season End Blowout promotion will reward three different Lucke-Rewards players with a $100,000 cash prize.

The campaign is also being supported across VisitBritain/VisitEngland’s channels including newsletters, social media and website content along with media and influencer activity. So what happens when an event like this takes place and does anything change? Not really—the other prize tiers, including the jackpot, remain the same. The price for a single entry will still be £2, and the odds of matching three main numbers will stay 1 in 96.2.

Saturday 29th September – A Must Be Won draw was held after the first-ever quadruple rollover. The jackpot was worth £19 million and five players matched all the numbers to scoop £3.9 million each. Wednesday 25th December – The first special Christmas event was held, with 500 winning codes drawn in the Lotto Raffle instead of the usual 50. Saturday 4th May – Held to mark the early May bank holiday, this draw saw players win £100 for matching three numbers, instead of the usual prize of £30. Saturday 6th March – The jackpot was increased to £20 million for this Must Be Won draw. The top prize rolled down and was split between more than 1.6 million players, who all received larger payouts than the regular fixed prizes.
