Latest News About What Time Does Euromillions Close

Short answer: In most participating countries, EuroMillions ticket sales close around 7:30 PM local time on draw days (Tuesday and Friday), with sales typically reopening shortly before the next draw. However, exact cut-off times can vary by country and local holidays, so you should verify the closing time for your location before the draw.[1][3][4]

Here’s a quick breakdown:

• United Kingdom: Closing cut-off around 7:30 PM GMT on draw days; tickets can be bought up until then, after which sales reopen for the next draw later that evening.[3][1]
• Other participating countries: Closing times are generally similar but may differ by time zone or local rules; check your national lottery site for the precise cut-off.[6][3]
• Draw times: The EuroMillions draws occur on Tuesday and Friday evenings, with the official draw timing around 8:45 PM CET in most sources, but your local time may shift the displayed time.[9][3]

Practical tip:

• If you’re in Los Angeles (UTC−7 during Pacific Daylight Time in May 2026), use local time equivalents and confirm with your country’s lottery site or the National Lottery (UK) page on draw cut-offs as your reference point. [user location]
• Before you purchase, especially around holidays or time-zone changes, recheck the official local cut-off to avoid missing the draw.[4][1]
