Lotto winning numbers live: National Lottery results for May 16

One lucky National Lottery participant could secure a life-changing multi-million-pound fortune in the May 16 Lotto draw tonight. The top prize has climbed to an impressive £7 million because no ticket holder succeeded in matching all six main numbers during Wednesday’s game.

To participate in this evening’s draw, hopefuls must select a half-dozen numbers between one and 59. Those who prefer to leave their luck to chance can opt for a Lucky Dip, which generates a random selection of numbers. Tickets are priced at £2 per line.

The main Lotto numbers will be drawn later this evening, followed shortly by the Thunderball game. The Thunderball draw is scheduled to take place at 8.15pm, exactly a quarter of an hour after the Lotto numbers are revealed.
