Lucky Colours

Lucky colours can inspire just as much hope as lucky charms, numbers or dates, and many lottery players like to use their favourite colours to help them choose their lines. Whether it’s the shade of a Lotto ball or the start of a raffle code, colours are everywhere in lottery draws, and it is possible to try and work out which ones are the luckiest.

The Lotto Millionaire Raffle has now ended. The final draw took place on Saturday 17th November 2018 so the raffle statistics will no longer be updated.
