Guaranteed Dreaming! €250,000 Must be Won in Ireland in Every EuroMillions Draw this May!

Get ready for a month full of guaranteed dreaming and excitement because every EuroMillions draw in May will give one player in Ireland the chance to win a massive €250,000!

This series of special EuroMillions Ireland Only Raffles will guarantee players a top up in the prize fund for all nine draws, every Tuesday and Friday, over the month of May. Typically, every EuroMillions draw produces ten winners of the €5,000 Ireland Only Raffle prize, but over the next month, we have created something extra special. In addition to the normal Raffle prize, one winner in each draw in May will win a dazzling €250,000 on top of the usual €5,000 Raffle prize.

The National Lottery’s Dream Inspector has this to say to our hopeful players: “My fellow dreamers! €250,000 must be won in every EuroMillions draw across 9 Ireland Only Raffle games! What are you going to do with that? Commission a giant portrait of yourself? Hire a personal butler like James Kavanagh? Your next big dream could just be a ticket away!”

James Kavanagh added “What a delight it was to meet the Dream Inspector in the flesh to celebrate the launch of Euromillions Ireland Only Raffle! Nine Irish dreamers will win €250,000 this month, a phenomenal prize. A once in a lifetime cruise on the Nile would be top of my list if I won!”

National Lottery spokesperson, Emma Monaghan, added to the excitement on the launch of the raffle event: “We’re so excited to launch this incredible event for our players. It’s going to be a whirlwind of winners in Lottery HQ! Not only are players in for a treat with the additional raffle prize of €250,000, ticketholders in Ireland will also be in with a chance of winning the juicy jackpots in the EuroMillions and EuroMillions Plus games!”

How do I Play? Simply buy a EuroMillions ticket as normal on any draw day in May. For every line you play, you’ll receive a unique raffle code. The code is your entry to the special Ireland Only Draw - no extra steps needed!

How Do I Win?
On each draw day in May, 10 players in Ireland will win the standard €5,000 in the Ireland Only Raffle (IOR). Those 10 winners will then be entered into an additional special draw, where one winner will take home an extra €250,000!
When are the Draws?
Every EuroMillions Tuesday and Friday draw in May, starting Friday, 2nd May and running through to Friday, 30th May.

Nearly 30 cent in every €1 spent on all National Lottery games goes back to Good Causes in the areas of sport, youth, health, welfare, education, arts, heritage, and the Irish Language. In total, more than €6.5 Billion has been raised for Good Causes since the National Lottery was established 37 years ago. In 2023 alone, €227.9 Million was raised for local Good Causes in communities across Ireland.
