James Kavanagh added: 'What a delight it was to meet the Dream Inspector in the flesh to celebrate the launch of Euromillions Ireland Only Raffle.
'Nine Irish dreamers will win €250,000 this month, a phenomenal prize. A once in a lifetime cruise on the Nile would be top of my list if I won.'
National Lottery spokesperson, Emma Monaghan, added to the excitement on the launch of the raffle event, she said: 'We're so excited to launch this incredible event for our players. It's going to be a whirlwind of winners in Lottery HQ.
'Not only are players in for a treat with the additional raffle prize of €250,000, ticketholders in Ireland will also be in with a chance of winning the juicy jackpots in the EuroMillions and EuroMillions Plus games.'
Simply buy a EuroMillions ticket as normal on any draw day in May. For every line you play, you'll receive a unique raffle code. The code is your entry to the special Ireland Only Draw - no extra steps needed.
On each draw day in May, 10 players in Ireland will win the standard €5,000 in the Ireland Only Raffle. Those 10 winners will then be entered into an additional special draw, where one winner will take home an extra €250,000.
