NOT SO UNLUCKY
Ireland's first National Lottery millionaire of 2026 bought ticket on Friday the 13th
The Quick Pick ticket was bought in Drumcondra yesterday on a date combination many consider unlucky.
THE NATIONAL LOTTERY has confirmed that the winning ticket for Friday night’s EuroMillions Ireland Only Raffle, worth €1,005,000, was sold in Dublin 9 yesterday.
The winning Quick Pick ticket was purchased from Spar Drumcondra on Friday the 13th – a date combination many consider unlucky.
The winning raffle ticket number was: I-TGQ-37601.
Last night’s EuroMillions draw featured an ‘Ireland Only’ raffle event, where one EuroMillions winner had an additional €1,000,000 added to their prize, making them the first National Lottery millionaire of 2026 with a total prize worth €1,005,000.
“What a fantastic win for Dublin’s Northside!”, Niall Tobin, store manager of Spar Drumcondra, said.
“The team here at Spar Drumcondra are absolutely delighted to have sold the winning EuroMillions Ireland Only Raffle ticket that has made the first National Lottery millionaire of 2026!”
Darragh O’Dwyer, National Lottery spokesperson, said that over 56,000 players in Ireland won prizes across the EuroMillions and EuroMillions Plus draws last night.
The latest EuroMillions Ireland Only Raffle winner is advised to sign the back of their ticket and to keep it safe. They should make contact with our prize claims team on 1800 666 222 or email claims@lottery.ie and arrangements will be made for them to collect their prize in Lottery HQ.
