For two National Lottery players, the weekend has already started with a bang after winning €500,000 each in the EuroMillions Plus draw
This follows excitement building nationwide as the EuroMillions jackpot is still up for grabs following last night’s draw, August 15. This sets the stage for Tuesday’s draw to reach its cap of an estimated €250 million. 
After matching all five numbers, two lucky players, located in Limerick and Kildare, are now €500,000 richer. 
 
The Plus player in Co Limerick purchased their winning ticket on the day of the draw from Day Today Rathkeale in New Line, Rathkeale. 
Meanwhile, the Kildare player purchased their Quick Pick ticket on the day of the draw online. 
 
The winning numbers in last night’s EuroMillions Plus draw were: 10, 34, 37, 38 and 43.  
 
Emma Monaghan, National Lottery spokesperson, said, “Huge congratulations to our EuroMillions Plus winners in Co Limerick and Co Kildare, who have each won €500,000 – a fantastic start to their weekends! While there was no winner of the EuroMillions jackpot worth €232,174,804, in total, over 70,000 players in Ireland won prizes in the EuroMillions and Plus games.” 
 
The National Lottery is urging all players in the Limerick area to check their tickets carefully, while an email notification has been sent to the online Kildare player. Contact the National Lottery prize claims team on 1800 666 222 or email claims@lottery.ie to arrange the collection of your prize.
