A Svenska Spel lottery drawing on Saturday, 4 October 2025, produced a SEK 84.9 million (about €7.7 million) Drömvinsten jackpot for one Swedish player, alongside three additional million‑krona prizes confirmed by the state‑owned operator.
“To win such a large sum, whether it is one million or SEK 84.9 million, is overwhelming. We will likely meet joy, surprise and perhaps a little shock,” said Daniel Arnkvist, spokesperson at Svenska Spel Tur.
How Drömvinsten works in Sweden’s Lotto
Drömvinsten (the “Dream Win”) is Lotto’s top prize at Svenska Spel Tur: a player must land seven correct numbers on Lotto and at least two correct numbers on Joker on the same ticket. The odds are long—1 in 123,415,127—which helps explain why top jackpots can grow to substantial amounts. Winners remain anonymous unless they choose otherwise, in line with Svenska Spel’s standard practice.
Beyond the headline SEK 84.9m (€7.7m) win, Saturday’s drawing delivered a Joker prize of SEK 10 million (about €0.91 million), a Lotto 2 first‑prize of roughly SEK 1.1 million (about €100,000), and SEK 1 million (about €90,900) via Lotto Andra Chansen (the weekly “Second Chance” draw).
What happens next: payout and advice at bank meeting
Svenska Spel Tur said large prizes are paid out at a bank meeting, where winners are also offered financial and legal advice—a routine step that the operator frames as part of its responsible‑gambling policy. The process typically begins with the company contacting the winners after draw validation.
Recent tweaks designed to create more millionaires
In September 2025, Svenska Spel introduced adjustments to Lotto aimed at creating more weekly million‑krona wins, including changes that make accessing Drömvinsten slightly more straightforward and adding guaranteed million‑prize opportunities. Saturday’s “million rain” fits the pattern the operator has highlighted since those changes were announced.
