French Loto jackpot reaches €13 million in Saturday draw

On Saturday 18 July 2026 the Française des Jeux held its regular Loto draw with a jackpot of €13 million after the previous draw failed to produce a first‑prize winner. Players could purchase a ticket for €2.20 and had to select five numbers between 1‑49 plus a “Chance” number between 1‑10. The draw yielded multiple lower‑tier winners: two participants each received €88 088, 62 players won €693, 531 collected €292, and over 269 000 prizes of €3.80 were paid out, amounting to roughly €913 864 in total. No ticket matched all six numbers, so the top prize rolled over to the next draw, which is scheduled for 20 July with an estimated jackpot of €14 million. The FDJ provided a dedicated helpline for gambling‑related assistance and reminded players of the risks associated with lottery games.
