Irish EuroMillions player scoops €500,000 as bosses reveal ticket sale location

Irish Lotto bosses are calling on players in one county to check their tickets after a big EuroMillions win.

The lucky winner bought their ticket in Midleton in Cork on the day of the draw and managed to scoop the jackpot in the Plus draw.

National Lottery officials revealed that the ticket was sold in McCarthy News, which is located at 43 Main Street, in Midleton, Co. Cork.

There were over 35,000 Irish winners in last night’s EuroMillions draw, and a spokesperson for the National Lottery has called on all players to check their tickets to see if they are one of the many lucky winners.

“This Cork player is our second EuroMillions plus top prize winner of the year and second win in just 4 days after a player in Cavan scooped the EuroMillions plus top prize in last Friday’s draw,” they said.

“We’re asking all of our EuroMillions players, especially in Cork, to check their tickets to see if they are the latest winner of a life-changing lottery prize. The Cork ticket holder is advised to sign the back of their winning ticket and to keep it safe.

“The winner should make contact with the National Lottery prize claims team on 1800 666 222 or email claims@lottery.ie and arrangements will be made for them to claim their prize”.

The numbers called in Tuesday the Janaury 17 EuroMillions Plus draw - which are worth €500,000 to one lucky player - were: 1, 12, 18, 40, 43.

There was no winner of the EuroMillions jackpot worth over €17 million, which means Friday’s jackpot rolls to an estimated €30 million.
