Festive Fortune for Dublin Player who Becomes Millionaire Just Before Christmas in Special Lotto Plus Raffle Draw

It's a life-changing Christmas for an online Lotto player in Dublin who has become an overnight Millionaire following Saturday night’s (21st December) special Lotto Plus draw.

The winning Lotto Plus Raffle number drawn was entered into a once-off random draw, where one ticket was selected to win an additional prize of €1 Million.  While every ticket holder who had the winning Raffle number won €500, one player won €1 Million, in addition to the usual €500 prize.  The winning Raffle number was: 3012

Also celebrating today is a Limerick player who matched five numbers plus the bonus in the main Lotto draw, securing €87,342. The player purchased their ticket on Thursday, 19th December, from Dunnes Stores, Harvey's Quay, Henry St, Co. Limerick.

The winning numbers in the Lotto draw were: 1, 14, 16, 20, 33, 41 and the bonus was 22.

While there were an incredible 86,000 prize winners in Saturday’s bumper Lotto and Lotto Plus draws, there was no winner of the €4.7 Million Jackpot, which now rolls to an estimated €5 Million on Christmas Day’s draw.
