Eurojackpot record win of 760 Million DKK claimed

Denmark’s largest lottery win in history, a staggering 760 million kroner, has been claimed by a fortunate individual who purchased the winning ticket in Østerbro, Copenhagen. Announced by the lottery company Danske Spil, the record-breaking Eurojackpot prize surpasses the previous record of 759 million kroner won in Blåvand. The winner, whose name has not been disclosed, expressed immense joy and disbelief at their luck. With no immediate plans on how to use the winnings, the winner looks forward to consulting with Danske Spil’s adviser for lottery millionaires. The company offers guidance and invites major winners to events where they can share experiences with others. Eurojackpot is a collaborative lottery played across 19 European countries, with the jackpot reserved for a ticket matching all five numbers and two additional euro numbers.
