How it Works The France lotto works in the traditional 6/49 format and the draws are on every Monday, Wednesday and Saturday. Numbers are chosen from two separate drums; the first choosing the winning numbers and the second drum picks the Lucky Number. The jackpot is awarded when all six numbers are chosen with a secondary prize going to those that have picked five. The minimum jackpot for the French Lotto is €2 million and the jackpot I capped once it reaches €36 million on the jackpot. The largest jackpot ever won was €18 million awarded to one lucky winner.
