Euromillions winner Matt Myles has just got back from his holidays eight months after jetting off with his 1million lottery jackpot.

Just three days after buying his lucky ticket, the former night shift factory worker was sunning himself on a beach in Bali.

Since then he has blown 80,000 on a once-in-a-lifetime round the world adventure with friends and family.

Ive had quite a year, reveals Matt, who is single.

He is is one of the thousands of winners to have struck it rich playing the Lottery since it began 20 years ago this weekend.

After Bali, Matt, 27, flew himself, his brother and a pal to Thailand.

From there, they went to Brazil for the World Cup and then Matt paid for himself and 12 friends to go to Ibiza.

He rented a sprawling villa with its own DJ in the hills overlooking the party mecca of San Antonio.

He hired a speed boat to ferry him and his mates to the islands hottest bars and beaches, paid for a VIP box in famous club Space, and picked up the tab for a VVIP day at A-lister hang-out the Ocean Beach Club.

It was totally wild, says Matt. Just the best week of my life, ever. The lads loved it. They were so grateful, and didnt stop telling me.

Factory worker who won lottery jackpot finally returns home from holiday - after eight MONTHS

Italian DJ Marco Carola, whose weeklyMusic On party in Ibiza was one of the summer's go-to events, is bringing the dance event to Miami for a three month residency at the city's shiny new nightclub, Story. The party is named after the electronic music label Carola founded in 2011.

Carola, whose DJ career spans more than two decades, will play every Saturday for 13 weeks from Dec. 6 through the end of February. While the shows will follow a similar concept to his no-frills events on Spains party isle -- the event's tagline is, "its all about the music" -- he'll make a few tweaks to suit Miami's nightlife style.

"The parties will have different styles because each city adds its own flair," he told Billboard. Perhaps the most notable difference is that while the Ibiza installments start late and end after dawn (Carolas set time often isnt until 4 a.m. and last for several hours), Music On Miami will be more of an evening destination.

Coinciding with the Music On Miami announcement, Carola released his annual Music On mix over the weekend via BBC Radio with Pete Tong. The hour-long compilation is look back at what revelers on the White Isle heard this summer and a sneak peek at what to expect in Miami. Listen to the mix below.

Carolas sets at his Story residency will last around four hours. To prepare, he downloads and listens to roughly 1,000 promos and demos each week. Its fun for me, he said, and its what I have to do to keep my playlists different and interesting."

The party kicks off Dec. 6. Tickets for Music On Miami are available here.

Nobody is expecting Culture Wars 2.0.

But that doesnt mean arts leaders arent a bit worried. Since last weeks elections gave Republicans control of both houses of Congress, there have been whispers in arts circles about a repeat of the 1994 midterm elections that carried conservatives to power and almost abolished the National Endowment for the Arts.

I was there for that. I always worry about that, says Robert Lynch, president and CEO of Americans for the Arts. The good news was we saved the support. The bad news was it was a 40percent cut.

But Lynch and other arts leaders arent anticipating a sequel. The NEA itself is less controversial, they say, because most of its grants go to state and regional partners and arts organizations, with few dollars going directly to artists.

In addition, the conversation for arts funding now focuses more on economic impact, tax receipts and community development.

Its not what we first think of what the arts are for. The arts play a role in nurturing the soul and spirit, Lynch says. But the arts are an important tool to help other issues.

The Newt Gingrich assault on arts funding in the 1990s tapped into a simmering controversy over public funding of art. There was the Corcorans mishandling of an NEA-funded Robert Mapplethorpe exhibit in 1989, followed a year later by the NEA chairmans decision to veto grants to four performance artists based on their edgy subject matter and not on artistic quality, which had been verified through the agencys peer review.

(Those grants were reinstated after a protracted court fight.) By 1996, the NEAs budget was cut from 1992s peak of $175.9 million to $99.4 million. As is clear from this years $146 million appropriation, the arts community still hasnt fully recovered.

Its a year-in, year-out grind, says Heather Noonan, vice president for advocacy at the League of American Orchestras. In the (fiscal year 2016) budget process, well continue to make sure that the NEA isnt disproportionately affected by attempts to cut domestic spending.

Many arts leaders are cautiously optimistic, thanks to the bipartisan support theyve nurtured since the early 1990s. One such advocate is Rep. Leonard Lance (N.J.), the Republican co-chairman of the Congressional Arts Caucus, who was elected to Congress in 2008.
