In a stunning turn of events in the world of lottery, while the grand jackpot of Friday’s EuroMillions draw remained elusive, with no winners laying claim to the €29,442,596 prize, fortune smiled generously on one Irish player who hit an extraordinary six-figure win. The EuroMillions Plus draw, separate from the main attraction, produced a winner who remarkably matched all five required numbers – 17, 21, 28, 29, and 42.
This astoundingly lucky ticket holder from Ireland is now half a million euros richer, having landed the top prize of the Plus draw worth a whopping €500,000. It’s a life-altering win, and Lotto officials are encouraging everyone who purchased a ticket in Ireland to meticulously review their numbers as they might be the newly-minted winner.
The lucky EuroMillions Plus top prize ticket was sold in the bustling county of Limerick, adding to the storied history of this western Irish city. The specifics regarding the point of sale or the identity of the purchaser remain undisclosed, allowing the winner to step forward and claim their prize at their leisure.
The half a million euro windfall wasn’t the only payout from the recent draw; a commendable number of 46,000 other players across Ireland also woke up to the good news of having won prizes of various amounts. Each win, irrespective of its size, has its own significance and adds a sprinkle of joy to the ticket holders.
Moreover, in the Ireland-Only Raffle draw, ten fortunate players found themselves entitled to a €5,000 boost to their bank accounts. This particular draw always guarantees that ten participants in Ireland will win exactly this amount, making it a highly anticipated part of the EuroMillions experience.
Not only do the lucky winners of the raffle get to enjoy their winnings, but those in the main draw didn’t go home empty-handed either. Matching numbers proved fruitful for others, with a group of 24 Irish participants snagging €122 each—succeeding in matching four main numbers and one of the two lucky stars, numbers 2 and 12. For these winners, even though the summit of the jackpot remained out of reach, taking home a triple-digit sum is still cause for celebration.
The main draw, combining both excitement and anticipation, had ticket holders on the edge of their seats as the winning numbers 10, 21, 30, 38, 42 and lucky stars 2 and 12 were announced. Hopeful participants with a variety of number combinations awaited to see if they were drawn in luck’s favor.
EuroMillions, known for its life-changing prizes, continues to entice millions of players across participating countries with the promise of fortunes to be won. Each draw brings with it the chance for participants to dream big and elevate their lives with a single ticket.
