Misryoum reports the National Lottery says an €8.7m Lotto winning ticket was bought in Dublin 12 and urges players to check immediately.
A €8.7 million Lotto jackpot winner could still be waiting to come forward after the National Lottery confirmed where the winning ticket was sold.
Misryoum reports that the ticket for Saturday night’s Lotto draw, worth €8,726,418, was purchased in Dublin 12. The winner has not yet claimed the prize from the May 2 draw.
For anyone who bought a Lotto ticket in the Dublin 12 area, Misryoum says the National Lottery is urging a careful check of their numbers as quickly as possible, given the size of the payout tied to the ticket.
This kind of guidance matters because the value of the prize can be missed even when the ticket is in hand, especially when players are busy and the claim window is easy to overlook.
The National Lottery confirmed the winning numbers as 01, 07, 27, 28, 34, 42, with a bonus number of 26. Players are advised to sign the back of their ticket and keep it safe before contacting the claims team.
Misryoum also notes that the Prize Claims team can be reached on 1800 666 222 or by email at claims@lottery.ie, after which arrangements can be made to collect the jackpot amount.
On the wider lottery scene, Misryoum reports that weekend draws also delivered major wins in other counties. A Limerick player took the top prize of €500,000 in Friday’s EuroMillions Plus draw, while a Westmeath player won €146,878 in the Lotto after matching five numbers and the bonus.
Meanwhile, the National Lottery says it will reveal the winning retail location for the weekend draw results on Wednesday, May 6, while continuing to wait for winners to get in touch.
This matters for players across the country because a single ticket can lead to a life-changing outcome, and quick verification is often the difference between a missed opportunity and a successful claim.
Misryoum adds that National Lottery games support Good Causes, with the organisation pointing to the long-running impact of funding across areas including sport, youth, health, welfare, education, arts, heritage, and the Irish language. Players are reminded to play responsibly, play for fun.
