Wexford player wins big on record-breaking EuroMillions draw as ticket seller revealed
The winner of the Irish record-breaking jackpot is located in the Munster region, but champagne corks may just have been popped in the Model County after Tuesday night's EuroMillions draw too as one lucky EuroMillions plus player managed to match all five winning numbers to secure a top prize of €500,000. The half a million euro ticket was sold in the Selskar Bookshop, located just off North Main Street in Wexford town. The Plus player purchased a Quick Pick on the day of the draw and the winning numbers were 11, 19, 30, 39 and 50. No doubt there will be quite a bit of speculation around the identity of the lucky player and they are encouraged to keep their ticket safe and get in touch with the National Lottery on 1800666222 or by emailing claims@ within 90 days to claim their prize. Emma Monaghan, spokesperson for the National Lottery, said: 'What a night for our EuroMillions players. Not only did we see 92,000 players in Ireland win prizes, including our top prize in EuroMillions Plus, but we also saw the historic jackpot being won by an Irish player. We are continuing to advise all EuroMillions players in the Munster region to check their tickets very carefully to see if they have landed this mega windfall. We're looking forward to sharing more details about the win in the coming days!'
