UAE Lottery now gives players two shots at AED 30 million every week

Ticket holders now have two shots each week at the UAE Lottery’s top prizes, after the operator announced that its flagship Lucky Day game will hold draws every Wednesday and Saturday starting this month — up from a single weekly draw.

The expanded schedule keeps the headline prizes intact. Both the AED 30 million Grand Prize and the AED 5 million Second Prize will be up for grabs at each draw, effectively doubling the frequency at which life-changing sums are on offer.

Each draw will also guarantee three winners of AED 50,000, adding a layer of mid-tier payouts to every event. Since the lottery’s launch, players have collectively taken home more than AED 175 million in prizes.

Alongside the schedule change, ticket sales will remain open until 8 PM — an hour later than the previous 7 PM cutoff — ahead of a 9:30 PM draw start. Entry remains AED 50 per ticket.

All Lucky Day draws are regulated and approved by the General Commercial Gaming Regulatory Authority (GCGRA). Tickets are available at www.theuaelottery.ae.
