A Daily Million player in Wicklow became Ireland’s newest Millionaire this week after scooping the top prize of €1 Million in Tuesday’s 9pm draw. The National Lottery today revealed that the winning ticket was purchased at Earl’s on Abbey Street in Wicklow.
Store owner Paul Vambeck, who has owned the Wicklow Town shop for 25 years, was thrilled to hear that his store sold the life-changing ticket.
“Our customers have had a few big wins over the years, but this is the biggest so far which has really brought a lot of excitement to the shop. The team here in-store were delighted when we got the call from the National Lottery, and the customers are getting in on the celebrations now too. We have been telling everyone to check their tickets. A massive congratulations to the winner and we hope they are enjoying the win.”
The National Lottery has confirmed that the winner has made contact, and arrangements are now being made for them to visit the Winners Room in Lottery HQ to claim their top prize amount.
The top prize winner earned themselves the title of 6th Daily Million top prize winner of the year-to-date following wins by players in Donegal, Cork, Wicklow, Kildare, and Laois.
The €1 Million prize marked the third National Lottery win for Wicklow players this week. Monday night’s EuroDreams draw saw two Wicklow players win incredible prizes with both the Tier one and Tier two prizes being won by Garden County players. An online player became the first EuroDreams top prize winner in Ireland after securing themselves a life-changing €20,000 per month for 30 years. Meanwhile, the tier two prize was also won after another Wicklow player scooped €2,000 per month for five years after purchasing their winning ticket at SuperValu in the Castle Street Shopping Centre in Bray.
Nearly 30 cent in every €1 spent on 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 2024 alone, €239.3 Million was raised for local Good Causes in communities across Ireland.
