It’s time to crack open the champagne for one lucky Dubliner who just bagged a massive €255,000 in last night’s Euromillions draw. The winner started off with a sweet €5,000 win, but then struck gold with an additional quarter of a million in the Ireland Only Raffle. The winning ticket was purchased online on the day of the draw, which was Friday, May 23. The winning raffle number that changed this person’s life is I-SDD-67295.
But the celebrations don’t stop there! Tipperary is also in for a treat as an online player from the county snagged the EuroMillions Plus top prize of €500,000. Last night’s winning numbers in the Euromillions Plus draw were 21, 32, 36, 46, and 47. Darragh O’Dwyer, the spokesperson for the Lotto, commented, “It was a night to remember for our online players, with two big wins to celebrate this weekend.” Despite no one hitting the jackpot of over €182 million, more than 65,000 people in Ireland took home prizes in both the EuroMillions and EuroMillions Plus games.
The lucky winner of the Ireland Only Raffle, with the winning ticket number I-SDD-67295, will be taking home a whopping €255,000. Additionally, the 15th winner of the EuroMillions Plus top prize hails from Co. Tipperary and will be pocketing €500,000. The National Lottery has reached out to both winners in Dublin and Tipperary, advising them to get in touch with the prize claims team to collect their winnings.
The Ireland-Only Raffles guarantee players a top-up of €250,000 in the prize fund for all nine draws, every Tuesday and Friday throughout the month of May. Lotto players across the country still have two more chances this month to win the additional prize in the upcoming Tuesday and Friday draws. So, keep those fingers crossed and who knows, you could be the next lucky winner!
