Time to go check those tickets, because someone in Ireland won €500,000 in last night’s EuroMillions draw.
The overall jackpot was worth a life-changing €39,141,320. And while nobody won the top prize, 41,000 people in Ireland *did* win something.
But it was the EuroMillions Plus that saw one player win big, as someone scooped up the top prize of €500,000.
The numbers drawn were 1, 8, 15, 26 and 41 and the National Lottery have confirmed that the ticket was sold in the East.
It comes a few days after a Kerry EuroMillions player also won the Plus’ jackpot prize.
More than 34,000 players in Ireland scooped up prizes in the main draw, which was worth €30,777,246.
The lucky numbers that came up were 12, 17, 24, 30, 36 and the lucky stars were 1 and 9 – although, nobody won the EuroMillions’ main jackpot.
Meanwhile, the €5,000 winning Ireland-only raffle numbers are:
I-HWH-10300, I-HWK-70619, I-HWL-67146, I-HWN-96185, I-HWP-20537, I-HWP-23340, I-HWP-64334, I-HWP-68721, I-HWQ-87395, I-HWQ-89768
In the EuroMillions Plus’ main draw, the numbers were 8, 15, 23, 41 and 42.
There was one winner of the top prize – someone in Kerry – so it’s time to get checking those tickets.
“A lucky player from #Kerry has matched 5 and won the top prize of €500,000 on tonight’s EuroMillions Plus draw,” they wrote on Facebook.
“There was no winner of the EuroMillions Jackpot. In total over 34,000 players won prizes in Ireland.”
