Check EuroMillions - Two €1 Million Prizes Won in Ireland!
Last Updated: Monday 25th November 2024, 13:57 pm
Friday night saw a spectacular EuroMillions draw. Not only did the jackpot manage to reach an incredible €194,669,133, but also the EuroMillionaire raffle took place - which has only occurred a total of four times before.
Each ticket that was bought in the last draw came with a unique code, 100 of which were randomly selected at the time of the draw. If anyone matched the code exactly then they were walking home with €1 million - This led to 100 millionaires being made across nine participating European countries.
We know for certain that two of these tickets were sold in Dublin and Kerry, making two Irish players millionaires overnight. The two winning codes from Ireland were IRKJ86198 and IRKS16405.
Winners Across the Country
The winning numbers of the main draw were 10,11,12,29,31 plus two Lucky Stars 8 and 11 - while nobody managed to match all seven numbers and hit the jackpot, there were still many winners on the night. In Ireland specifically there was a total of €443,976 won between 88,523 players.
On top of that, one lucky player from Wexford managed to win the EuroMillions Plus top prize of €500,000 after matching all five numbers which came out as: 7, 27, 35, 38 and 45.
The Irish Lottery has urged its players to check their tickets to make sure they haven’t lost out on winning any big prizes. Use our results page or number checker as the best way to see if your numbers or raffle codes matched up.
Remember you only have 90 days from the date of the draw to claim your prize so make sure you don’t leave it too late!
An Even Bigger Prize Could be Won Next Time
Since nobody won the top prize on Friday, the EuroMillions jackpot has rolled over to an estimated €210,000,000. This could be won on the next draw on Tuesday or keep rolling over until it reaches its cap of €250 million.
At this point the top prize will stay at this fixed amount until won, but more prize money can still be added to the second prize tier - those who match 5 + 1 Lucky Star. It is slowly approaching the biggest EuroMillions jackpot of all time, so now is as good a time as any to start playing.
If you fancy having a go on the next EuroMillions, make sure you do it before the deadline, every Tuesday and Friday. Bet online now and avoid the hassle of going to a local store.
