Mayo revealed as winning location of life-changing EuroMillions ticket

Friday night’s EuroMillions Ireland Only Raffle promotion special was won in Mayo. 

The county has been revealed as the location where a EuroMillions player won a life-changing €1,005,000.

The winning ticket, purchased online, carried the raffle code I-RDJ-29621. 

As part of the ongoing ‘4 More Lottery Millionaires’ promotion, Friday’s draw saw the Mayo player from the west of Ireland have €1 million added to their €5,000 prize, marking the third of four special draws this month. 

The final guaranteed €1 million prize will be up for grabs in the Lotto Plus Raffle draw this Saturday, September 28. 

Also celebrating a significant win is an online player from Dublin, who matched five numbers and the bonus in last night’s Lotto draw, landing an impressive €132,653. 

The winning numbers in Saturday night’s Lotto draw were: 4, 15, 29, 38, 41, 46, with the Bonus number 32.  While there was no jackpot winner, over 90,000 players won prizes. 

Wednesday’s jackpot is now set at an estimated €5.5 million. 

The National Lottery is urging EuroMillions and Lotto players in Mayo and Dublin to check their online tickets very carefully and if they are a winner, to contact the prize claims team on 1800 666 222 or email claims@lottery.ie and arrangements will be made for them to collect their prize from Lotto HQ. 

National Lottery spokesperson and Mayo native, Sarah Ruane, said it was ‘an exciting time for EuroMillions players’.

“We’re thrilled to reveal Co Mayo as the latest home of a new millionaire, and we look forward to making another guaranteed millionaire in the Lotto Plus Raffle draw next Saturday.” 

Nearly 30 cent of every euro 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 six billion euro has been raised for Good Causes since the National Lottery was established 36 years ago.
