We’ll bring you the draw as soon as we can. Thanks for your patience."The National Lottery experienced a similar issue in April 2026, when it apologized for a “technical fault” that led to a delayed draw.The winner of tonight’s National Lottery Set For Life draw will bag a top prize of £10,000 every month for 30 years.
