A lucky player in Dublin just scored a life-changing win — we’re talking over €8.7 million from last night’s Lotto draw. Yep, that’s a massive payday.
Here’s how it went down:
- Winning numbers: 01, 07, 27, 34, 42
- Bonus number: 26
- The store that sold the ticket? Still under wraps until Wednesday.
While Dublin grabbed the spotlight, someone in Westmeath also had a pretty incredible night. That player walked away with €146,878 after matching five numbers plus the bonus in Saturday’s draw. The ticket was picked up at a local service station in Athlone.
Lottery officials are urging players — especially in Dublin — to double-check their tickets ASAP. One person is now officially the second Lotto jackpot winner of 2026, and they might not even know it yet.
A few quick highlights from the weekend draws:
- Over 101,000 winners across Lotto and Plus games
- Two standout wins: Dublin (€8.7M+) and Westmeath (€146K+)
- Big reminder: Check your tickets carefully
Winners are being told to sign the back of their tickets and keep them secure before reaching out to claim their prizes. The lottery also reassured players that solid security measures are in place, both online and in stores, to keep everything safe and legit.
