The National Lottery has made an appeal to EuroMillions players across Ireland this morning to meticulously review their tickets after a fortunate player secured a substantial six-figure sum in Tuesday night’s draw. This thrilling revelation adds to the excitement as over 53,000 participants in Ireland clinched prizes in the EuroMillions and Plus games last night.
Among these delighted winners, one individual emerged victoriously with the Match 5 plus One Lucky Star prize, having claimed a staggering €114,649. The main EuroMillions draw for April 30 announced the winning numbers as 13, 22, 24, 33, and 47, with the lucky stars being 01 and 05.
In an exhilarating update on Tuesday evening, the National Lottery disclosed that the golden ticket, valued at €114,649, was sold in the heart of Co Kildare.

The fortunate ticket holder from Kildare is now advised to take immediate precautions: they should sign the back of their ticket and keep it in a secure place. Furthermore, they are urged to reach out to the National Lottery prize claims team by contacting 1800 666 222 or by sending an email to [email protected].
