UK Thunderball History

The first UK Thunderball draw took place in June 1999 with a five from 34 matrix for the main numbers, plus one Thunderball number from a pool of 14. The game originally took place on Wednesday and Saturday and offered a jackpot of £250,000.

In May 2010, the jackpot prize increased from £250,000 to £500,000, with a separate prize for matching just the Thunderball number. The Friday draw was also introduced at this time.

A new Tuesday Thunderball draw is introduced, with the first draw taking place on Tuesday 30th January 2018. No other changes to the game were made.
