Rules of the game
How is EuroDreams played?
A line consists of 6 numbers from 1 to 40 and 1 Dream number from 1 to 5. Draws take place every Monday and Thursday evening in Paris. You win from 2 matches; the Dream number only counts for tier 1.
In which countries is it played?
Eight countries: France, Belgium, Luxembourg, Switzerland, Austria, Spain, Portugal and Ireland. It is not available in Germany or the UK.
How much does a line cost?
Each country sets its own price; in France a line costs €2.50.
Winning
What does tier 1 pay?
An annuity of €20,000 a month for 30 years, €7.2 million in total. Tier 2 (6 matches without the Dream number) pays €2,000 a month for 5 years (€120,000). There is no rollover: these amounts are fixed.
What are the odds of winning?
The chance of tier 1 (6 matches + Dream number) is 1 in 19,191,900; the chance of winning any of the 6 tiers is about 1 in 5. All tiers with their exact probability are listed on the Prizes page.
