Could it be you! EuroMillions jackpot soars to €130m
A LUCKY EuroMillions player from county Kilkenny could see their own name added to Ireland’s Rich List straight in at number 124 – above golfer Rory McIlroy, businessman Ben Dunne and actor Liam Neeson – if they win tonight’s massive EuroMillions €130 million jackpot.
Speaking ahead of Friday’s EuroMillions Mega Draw, National Lottery chief executive Dermot Griffin said: “Every so often EuroMillions gives back to its players by offering special draws. Together with the National Lottery’s EuroMillions partners, we have boosted the jackpot to an incredible €130 million.”
He added: “This is the largest EuroMillions jackpot since the Naul Family Syndicate won €175.4 million on a ticket sold in Co. Dublin in February – the highest ever jackpot won in Ireland. We are expecting huge interest from our players who hope to become Ireland’s 15th EuroMillions jackpot winner. It would be incredible to get a second Irish EuroMillions jackpot winner in the space of a few months.”
Ireland ranks as the third luckiest country when it comes to Euromillion jackpot wins per capita, behind Portugal and Luxembourg.
To be in with a chance of winning, play EuroMillions in-store, on the National Lottery app or online by 7.30pm this evening.
