A EuroMillions player in Dublin is set for a midweek celebration after matching all five numbers in Tuesday night’s Plus draw to win the top prize of €500,000. The winning Quick Pick ticket was purchased on Saturday, 25th April, at Circle K Westmoreland St, 3-4 Ballast House, on Westmoreland Street in Dublin 2.
The winning numbers in the Tuesday, 28th April draw were: 3, 5, 7, 19 and 41.
The Dublin winner is advised to sign the back of their ticket and keep it safe. The winner is advised to contact the Prize Claims team on 1800 666 222 or email claims@lottery.ie, and arrangements will be made for them to visit Lottery Headquarters to collect their prize.
National Lottery spokesperson, Emma Monaghan said “Tuesday night’s draw saw over 33,000 players nationwide win prizes across the EuroMillions and Plus draws, including one Dublin player who scooped the EuroMillions Plus Jackpot worth €500,000. As there was no winner of the €26,211,265 Jackpot on offer, Friday’s EuroMillions Jackpot is now set to roll towards an estimated €40 Million.”
Meanwhile, a Dublin man recently visited National Lottery Headquarters to collect his EuroMillions Plus prize of €500,000 from the draw on Tuesday, 21st April. His winning ticket was purchased at Charles Treacy, 191 Philipsburgh Avenue in Marino, Dublin 3.
The delighted winner shared, “I’ve been playing the same numbers of personal significance for years. I check the results every Tuesday and Friday night online and tick them off one by one. When they all started matching, I just couldn’t believe what I was seeing. At first, we thought the prize was €250,000, so finding out it was €500,000 was a whole new level of shock and excitement – it was just brilliant, I’ll never forget it!”
He added, “First, I want to let the win sink in. It still doesn’t feel real, even sitting here in the Winner’s Room. Then it will be time to get the garden ready for summer, finally get some home improvements done and make a donation to a charity that’s close to my family’s heart.”
Also claiming their EuroMillions prize was a Midlands winner who matched five numbers and one Lucky Star to win €344,056 in the 14th April draw. Their winning ticket was purchased from Daybreak, Bridge Street, Cootehill in Co. Cavan.
Speaking on the win, the winner shared, “It was almost a full week after the draw before I checked my ticket. When I saw the results, the numbers started looking a little familiar. Little did I know I was sitting on a winning ticket that whole week. I’ve always wanted to go on a cruise holiday, so I’ll hopefully be setting sail in the near future with my winnings!”
Tonight’s Lotto Jackpot is set to roll towards an estimated €8.2 Million. Players dreaming of winning big are reminded that tickets can be purchased nationwide in-store, through the National Lottery app or online at www.lottery.ie ahead of the 7.45pm cut-off time for sales this evening.
