Irish Lotto Jackpot Of €7.1 Million Won By Online Player
An online player has pocketed an Irish Lotto jackpot of €7.1 million after matching all six main numbers in last night’s draw. The top prize had previously been rolling over since a ticket holder from Donegal won €4.4 million on Saturday 13th January.
The winning numbers on Wednesday 21st February were 9, 26, 27, 29, 31 and 47, with Bonus Ball 30. As well as the jackpot winner, there were over 34,000 other prizes given away, ranging from a €3 scratchcard for matching two main numbers plus the Bonus Ball to €1,699 for matching five main numbers.
Go to the Irish Lotto Results page for a full prize breakdown. You can also see the latest numbers for the Irish Lotto Plus 1 and Irish Lotto Plus 2 draws, which created thousands of winners. The winning Irish Lotto Raffle code was 1970.
This week’s success marked the largest jackpot since 25th October 2017, when a player from Co Tipperary banked €7.5 million. It is only the second time this year the top prize has been won.
A Daily Million player from Dublin also scooped €1 million in Wednesday’s evening draw. The game offers seven seven ways to win and is played twice a day. The winning numbers yesterday were 2, 3, 11, 17, 22 and 30, with Bonus Ball 31.
EuroMillions Event
Following on from the two new millionaires on Wednesday, there is a great chance that Ireland could give away more spectacular prizes in Friday night’s EuroMillions draw.
The jackpot is up to €175 million, while a special event known in Ireland as the EuroMillionaires Raffle Draw is also set to take place. Everyone who enters Friday’s game will receive a unique code, and then 25 winners will be randomly selected on the night. The raffle is played by ticket holders across all nine participating countries and when it was last played on 28th October 2016 there were no Irish winners, so this Friday is your chance to make history as the country’s first winner.
You can take part in the next EuroMillions draw by visiting any authorised retailer in Ireland or choosing numbers online. Good luck!
