Tens of thousands of EuroMillions players in Ireland scooped up prizes in Friday night’s draws.

There was one winner of the EuroMillions jackpot. The winning ticket, worth a life changing €178,656,733, was sold in France.

While no one in Ireland snapped the nine figure prize, in total, over 60,000 players in Ireland won prizes in the EuroMillions and Plus games – including 10 Irish Only Raffle winners who nabbed €5,000 each.

The winning numbers in the main draw were: 5, 29, 33, 39, 42 and the Lucky Stars 3 and 9. The winning raffle codes were:

There was also no winner of the Plus top prize worth €500,000, but 69 players matched four numbers to win €2,000. The winning numbers were: 9, 27, 35, 38, and 46.

Meanwhile, Lotto winners in Cork and Limerick headed to claim some incredible prizes this week, including one lucky man who snapped up a seven-figure windfall.

First up at Lotto HQ this week to collect their winnings was a Cork man who walked away with the largest cheque of the week, after winning €1,000,000 on the Lotto Plus 1 draw on Saturday, November 1. His ticket was purchased at Tesco, Market Green Shopping Centre, Midleton, Co. Cork.

Although a regular Lotto player, he described the moment of discovery as completely unexpected, “I always buy my ticket the day before the draw, and on this particular day, I was doing the school run – nothing out of the ordinary!”
