As the excitement built around the latest EuroMillions draw, participants across Europe eagerly awaited the announcement of the winning numbers that could transform their lives with a staggering €78m jackpot at stake. However, the grand prize remained elusive, rolling over to a jaw-dropping estimated €90m for Tuesday’s upcoming draw.
The absence of a jackpot winner in Friday’s draw has heightened anticipation exponentially, as the prize pot expands and the dreams of players from Ireland and the rest of Europe grow even bigger. With aspirations of a life-changing €90m in their sights, the EuroMillions frenzy continues to spread.
Despite the main prize going unclaimed, Friday’s draw was not without its success stories. Fortunes smiled upon several lucky Irish contenders, two of whom nearly hit the jackpot, matching four numbers along with both lucky stars, each securing a €1,498 windfall. These near-misses are testament to the unpredictable nature of the draw and how close one can get to colossal wealth.

The fortuitous streak extended beyond these individuals, as ten fortuitous Irish players found themselves on the receiving end of a substantial €5,000 each, thanks to the Irish raffle. The winning raffle codes—bringers of such unexpected prosperity—were:
I-QDW-53007
I-QDX-99729
I-QDZ-53592
I-QDZ-84564
I-QFC-08350
I-QFC-82810
I-QFD-13566
I-QFF-13912
I-QFF-23080
I-QFF-26873
These raffle victories underscore the variety of ways in which the EuroMillions draw can turn a regular Friday night into an occasion of celebration, even for those who miss out on the main jackpot.
The numbers that held the key to the €78m jackpot that night were 16, 17, 18, 45, and 49, with the Lucky Stars being 9 and 12. Yet fate decreed that these specific combinations would not render anyone a multimillionaire that time around.
The excitement wasn’t limited to just the main draw. EuroMillions Plus, another chance for players to hit it big, also had a sizeable €500,000 jackpot up for grabs. Yet fortune proved equally slippery here, with no winners managing to come forward with the combination of 11, 13, 42, 45, and 48.
The relentless chase for fortune lives on, however, as EuroMillions continues to captivate and inspire those who dare to dream. It’s a reminder of the chance for transformation that lies within a simple lottery ticket.
