A EuroMillions player in the west of Ireland is celebrating today after winning a massive €1,005,000 in last night’s EuroMillions Ireland Only Raffle promotion.
The winning ticket, purchased online, carried the raffle code I-RDJ-29621. The National Lottery will reveal the exact county tomorrow.
As with every EuroMillions draw, 10 players won €5,000 each in the Ireland Only Raffle, but last night, one online player in the west had an additional €1 million added to their prize as part of the ongoing ‘4 More Lottery Millionaires’ promotion.
This win marks the third of four special draws, which guarantees four new Irish millionaires in EuroMillions and Lotto Plus raffle draws throughout September. The final €1 million prize will be up for grabs in the special Lotto Plus Raffle Draw on Saturday, September 28th.
It was also a winning night in Cork, where a EuroMillions Plus player scooped the top prize of €500,000. The winning Quick Pick ticket was purchased on the day of the draw at Kearney’s Centra, Ballydesmond, Mallow, Co. Cork.
The winning numbers in last night’s EuroMillions Plus draw were: 13, 20, 27, 34, 50.
While there was no winner of the €54,712,555 EuroMillions jackpot, in total, over 50,000 players in Ireland won prizes in last night’s EuroMillions and EuroMillions Plus games.
The National Lottery is urging EuroMillions players in the West of Ireland and Cork to check their tickets very carefully and if they are a winner, they are advised to sign the back of their ticket and to keep it safe. They should contact the prize claims team on 1800 666 222 or email claims@lottery.ie and arrangements will be made for them to collect their prize from Lotto HQ.
