EuroMillions results: No winner of massive jackpot, but thousands win prizes
No lucky punter managed to snap up the life changing EuroMillions top prize on Tuesday evening, but almost 90,000 players scooped prizes.

The winning numbers from the draw were: 20, 21, 29, 30, 35 and Lucky Stars 2 and 12.

EuroMillions draw LIVE updates: Jackpot reaches 'truly historic' €250 million
One lucky EuroMillions player is in line to scoop a truly historic prize in Tuesday's draw, with the jackpot reaching its maximum possible amount of €250 million. The EuroMillions jackpot reached its maximum cap on Friday, June 6, meaning this extraordinary prize cannot grow any further. But here's the exciting part: on draws at the cap, any excess money that would usually be allocated to the jackpot will flow down to the next prize level at which there are winners. If no one wins the top prize in tonight's EuroMillions draw, the jackpot will remain at €250 million for up to three more draws before it must be won on Friday, June 20. If no one matches all seven numbers on the fifth draw, then the entire jackpot will roll down to the next prize level at which there are winners. You can watch all EuroMillions draws first on The National Lottery website or it's YouTube channel at 8.45pm every Tuesday and Friday. The draw will take place at 8:45pm. If you can't watch the draw live, results will be posted shortly after. Players are reminded that tickets for tonight's draw can be purchased in-store, through the National Lottery app or online here ahead of the 7:30pm cut-off time for sales on tonight's draw. Darragh O'Dwyer, National Lottery spokesperson said: 'This is a truly historic moment for EuroMillions players in Ireland. "With the jackpot capped at €250 million, any additional prize money that would normally increase the jackpot, will now be redirected to increase the value of the next prize tier at which there are winners. "Imagine - we could be waking up tomorrow to news of Ireland's first €250 million winner.'
