The new Dream Number game will be start on
Saturday 15 July, and tickets will be on sale
from Thursday 13 July.
Dream Number is a game which was specifically
created to help raise funds for the London 2012
Olympic Games and Paralympic Games. The National
Lottery has pledged to contribute £1.5
billion towards "funding the infrastructure
of London 2012" and officials say that
£750 million of this will come from Dream
Number and a series of other designated games,
including scratch cards and all online Instant
Win games that are playable at the official
lottery web site.
Dianne Thompson, Chief Executive of National
Lottery operator, Camelot, commented: "We
are delighted to be launching our first draw-based
game to support London 2012. Dream Number provides
the perfect complement to our big jackpot draw-based
games of Lotto and EuroMillions, offering a
wide-range of prizes and fantastic odds of winning.
"Sales of designated lottery games in
support of London 2012 have got off to a tremendous
start, exceeding our first year target. We hope
that Dream Number will prove equally inspiring
to our players, not only for the chance to win
gold themselves, but also to play a part in
supporting the 2012 Olympic Games and Paralympic
Games."
The Dream Number game, which will be held twice
each week, will cost £1 to play and gives
each player a random seven-digit number. Tickets
will be available from all National Lottery
retailers and online. To win the top prize of
£500,000 you will need to have your seven
numbers drawn in the same sequence as they appear
on your ticket when reading from left to right.
A number of smaller prizes are also up for grabs,
and the more numbers you have selected in the
right order, the more you will win, as follows:
