EuroMillions results: Lucky player scoops six figure prize in special draw
One lucky EuroMillions player has won a life changing six figure sum in Friday's special draw.
While there was no winner of the EuroMillions jackpot, worth a life changing €123,011,264, over 61,000 players in Ireland won prizes in the EuroMillions and Plus games, including one player who scooped up €255,000.
The winner of the Ireland Only Raffle special draw snapped up the prize with the winning code: I-SBS-10586. Nine other lucky EuroMillions players grabbed €5,000 in the Ireland Only Raffle with the following codes:
Although no one grabbed the jackpot, plenty of players grabbed prizes, including one player who snapped up €971. The winning numbers were: 15, 18, 25, 29, 47 and the lucky stars 5 and 9.
There was also no winner of the EuroMillions Plus top prize, worth €500,000, but plenty of players still won prizes. The winning numbers: 1, 6, 29, 31 and 37.
Meanwhile, there were celebrations at National Lottery HQ this week as a family syndicate from Co Cork made the trip to Dublin to collect a cheque worth a staggering €500,000.
The group scooped the life-changing sum after winning the EuroMillions Plus top prize in the draw on Tuesday, April 29.
Their all-important Quick Pick ticket was purchased from Lidl on the Mill Road in Youghal.
'We're truly a mix of hopefuls and sceptics. The family syndicate has been running for years, and I'd confidently say we're regular players who've held out for a big win like this!' said the head of the syndicate, beaming with joy.
One member recalled the moment he found out they had the winning ticket. 'It was the day after the draw, and I remembered to check my ticket," they revealed.

Louth lotto syndicate of 11 tradesmen wins €255,000 EuroMillions
The syndicate are 'Jacks of All Trades', made up of builders, plumbers, electricians, and engineers that have been playing together for five years. The group has stuck to a simple system: one group chat, one EuroMillions ticket each, three lines with the Plus, and everyone keeping an eye on every ticket. On this occasion, their winning Quick Pick ticket was purchased by head of the syndicate, Richard O'Brien, at Applegreen, Newfoundwell Road, Greenbatter, Drogheda, Co. Louth, on the day of the draw. That ticket held the all-important raffle number: I-SDL-14299, and Richard said he initially thought they won a modest €5,000. Typically, every EuroMillions draw produces ten winners of the €5,000 Ireland-Only Raffle prize, but last month players have the chance to win an additional €250,000. 'One of the lads said, 'check again, we've won a lot more than that. There's a special raffle on'. I thought he was pulling my leg until I looked it up. That's when I saw we'd won an extra €250,000. 'The phone was hopping with calls and texts for the rest of the night. It was madness but great excitement,' Richard said. The next morning, Richard phoned the National Lottery Claims team to confirm the win. That evening, the group met up to sign the back of the winning ticket and celebrated their win together. There are many plans for spending the winnings, with talks of holidays and sun destinations, and one winner has his heart set on buying a couch for his partner. The crew of 11 travelled to the National Lottery Headquarters today to collect and celebrate their winnings. This marks the second win in Drogheda over the last week, with €255,000 won last week. Nearly 30 cent in every €1 spent on National Lottery games goes back to good causes in the areas of sport, youth, health, welfare, education, arts, heritage and the Irish language. In total, more than €6.5 billion has been raised for good causes since the National Lottery was established 37 years ago. In 2024 alone, €239.3 million was raised for local good causes in communities across Ireland.
