'Players are being urged to check their tickets online via the National Lottery app or website, or in their local store, to see if they are tonight's big jackpot winner.'
According to Camelot, the exact amount won by the UK ticket-holder was £79,315,197.70.
One UK millionaire was made in the Millionaire Maker Selection, with the code being JJPX91107.
No-one bagged the Thunderball jackpot of £500,000 but two ticket-holders matched four of five numbers in the EuroMillions HotPicks to bag £30,000.
The announcement comes just weeks after two mystery Lotto winners from Oldham each scooped £1million on the same draw.
Camelot, which operates the National Lottery, confirmed earlier this month that it had received claims on two Lotto prizes from a draw on August 8.
The wins were both worth £1million and the tickets were bought in Oldham, Greater Manchester, which was placed under stricter Covid-19 restrictions in August amid a rising number of infections.
The winners have six months to come forward to claim the jackpots.
Meanwhile in June, Simon Waddup, 31, from Coventry, who claimed he had bought a Euromillions lottery ticket for the first time ever, landed a staggering £1 million win.
And in March, one lucky player scooped £15.2 million in the EuroMillions draw just days after another UK EuroMillions player netted £16.5 million
Last year figures revealed that Britons splurged £3.9billion on lotto tickets as the National Lottery operator Camelot revealed its best ever sales.
The figures showed that, in the first six months of the 2019/20 financial year - between April 1 and September 29 - ticket sales rose by 13.5 per cent to £3.9 billion while returns to good causes increased by 10.5 per cent to £876.8 million, £83.6 million more than the same period the year before.
Who is the biggest ever UK lottery winner? Two couples and a former car mechanic top list
Here are the six previous biggest UK winners of the EuroMillions draw so far
1. In July 2011, Colin and Chris Weir became Europe's biggest lottery winners when they scooped more than £161million.
The couple, who have been married for 30 years, said they were ‘not scared’ of the wealth because they were going to have ‘so much fun’ with the money.
The pair, a retired TV cameraman and a retired psychiatric nurse, from Largs, in Ayrshire, said their children Carly, a photography student, and Jamie, a call centre worker, would be bought their own homes and cars.
The family made a £1million donation to the SNP shortly after winning.

2. Adrian and Gillian Bayford, from Suffolk, took home more than £148 million in August 2012.
The marriage ended just 15 months into their new jackpot winning lives, citing the stress of the money as the reason they needed to split.
At the time, a spokesman for Mrs Bayford said: 'Gillian Bayford confirms that her marriage to Adrian has broken down irretrievably and they have separated.'
It came after Mrs Bayford was forced to deny she had an affair with the couple's gardener, Chris Tovey.

3. An anonymous ticket-holder took home £121m
4. Patrick and Frances Connolly from County Armagh scooped the entire £115million EuroMillions jackpot on New Year's Day 2019
5. An unnamed ticket-holder claimed just over £113million in October 2010, and chose not go public.
6. Neil Trotter, from south London, won nearly £108million, going from former car mechanic to multimillionaire in March 2014.
Neighbours in Croydon described he and partner Nicky Ottaway moved out ‘almost overnight’ after they scooped the EuroMillions jackpot last March.
Mr Trotter admitted at the time that he was like his namesake, Del Boy Trotter from Only Fools And Horses.

7. A couple from Cambridgeshire, Dave and Angela Dawes, won more than £101million on their third go on the EuroMillions draw in October 2011.
Mr Dawes said he 'didn't sleep a wink' the night of the win, as it was too late to call Camelot after the couple checked their numbers.
Last year, the couple were taken to court by his son, an Afghanistan veteran, Michael Dawes, 32, who said he was 'ungenerous in spirit'.
But a judge ruled the millionaire father does not need to keep bailing out his son, who burnt through £1.6million in two years, and came back for more, failing to heed his stepmother's advice to stop eating at the Ritz and go to McDonald's instead.
8. A UK winner got a £93 million payout in June 2015, but decided to remain anonymous.
