Jackpot! Someone in Ireland has won tonight’s €250m Euromillions draw

It could be you…

LAST UPDATE | 17 Jun

A EUROMILLIONS JACKPOT worth €250 million has been won in Ireland, the Irish National Lottery has announced. 

The winning numbers are: 13, 22, 23, 44, 49 and the Lucky Stars are: 03, 05.

“Who wants to be a Quarter Billionaire?” the National Lottery said in a post to X. “Check those Euromillions tickets at lottery.ie or on our App.”

The single winner of the jackpot has resulted in a record prize, surpassing the €175 million record for the largest cheque presented in the famous Winners’ Room, when Reilly’s Daybreak on Main Street, The Naul, Co. Dublin, sold the winning ticket for Ireland’s largest EuroMillions win in February 2019.

National Lottery CEO Cian Murphy has tonight advised EuroMillions players to check their tickets very carefully.

“We are absolutely thrilled to see this incredible and record win for an Irish EuroMillions player,” he said. “We are advising our players to check their tickets and if they are the winner, sign the back of the ticket, keep it safe, and contact National Lottery HQ and we will guide you through the claims process.”

The details surrounding the winning ticket will be revealed over the coming days, Murphy said.

He added that with the size of the win the National Lottery has procedures to follow, but that it will reveal the winning location “as soon as [it] can”.

“While this is a massive win, it can come as a shock to a winner and we advise them to stay calm, get independent legal and financial advice and contact us as soon as they can.”

The EuroMillions jackpot reached its maximum cap on Friday, 6 June 2025, meaning the prize could not grow any further.

Tonight, the latest mega-jackpot player becomes Ireland’s 18th winner of the Euromillions in Ireland and will take the title of the largest ever win in Ireland.
