The location where a lucky EuroMillions player bought a winning ticket worth a life-changing €500,000 has been revealed.

The Irish punter scooped the top prize in Tuesday’s EuroMillions Plus draw.

It has since been announced that the winning Quick Pick ticket was purchased at Tesco in the Dundrum Town Centre in Dublin 16 on Monday, November 22.

The winning numbers for the EuroMillions Plus draw were: 13, 22, 27, 32, 49.

The Dundrum winner, who now has a ticket worth €500,000, is advised to sign the back of their ticket and keep it safe.

The biggest Irish winner from the draw should contact the prize claims team on 1800 666 222 or email claims@lottery.ie and arrangements will be made for them to claim their prize.

As there was no winner of the incredible €145,091,098 jackpot on offer in Tuesday's draw, Friday’s EuroMillions jackpot is now set to roll to an estimated €165 million.

Meanwhile, the National Lottery has confirmed that over €60.7 million has been raised for Good Causes in the current Lotto jackpot roll-over series since Wednesday, June 9.

Ahead of Wednesday's record-breaking draw, the National Lottery is continuing to appeal to players to purchase their tickets early either in-store, through the National Lottery app or online before the 7.45pm cut-off time for sales.

A National Lottery spokesperson said: “The past 5 months have been record-breaking for the Lotto game.

"The current Lotto jackpot of €19,060,800 and rollover of 24 weeks is unprecedented and has generated a huge amount of excitement across the country.

"While we have not seen a player match the jackpot numbers since Saturday 5th June, we have seen an increase of Lotto players winning larger prizes due to the jackpot prize roll down across the past 15 draws.

"Since Saturday 2nd October, 180 Lotto players who won the Match 5+Bonus or Match 5 prizes have shared an incredible €13.5 million."

They added: "As the Lotto jackpot is capped, the funds that would usually go to the jackpot are instead distributed to the next prize tier at which there is a winner.

"In last Saturday’s draw, a player in Cork scooped €996,216 after matching 5 numbers and the bonus.

"Could tonight’s draw mark the end of the current Lotto jackpot roll? Just a few hours to go until we see!”
