Tuesday night’s EuroMillions draw is set to see the jackpot soar towards an estimated €210 million.
Meanwhile, the Winners Room in Lottery Headquarters has already seen a few rounds of celebrations over the week with winners from all over the country collecting incredible prizes.
A Cork syndicate were delighted to claim their €161,198 prize which they won in the 20th February EuroMillions draw after matching five numbers and one lucky star. Their winning ticket was purchased at Mace Sallybrook in Glanmire.

'We’ll be using this to take our dream trip to America and, of course, there’s a few home renovations planned too!'
A Dublin man was still feeling the shock arriving to the Winners Room to pick up his €30,000 cheque after scooping the top prize amount on a €3 All Cash Tripler Scratch Card. He purchased the winning Scratch Card at Cards n Things at Unit 17/18 in Citywest Shopping Centre in Dublin 24.
'I was watching television with my wife when I scratched the ticket, and I just turned to her and said, ‘I think I’ve won €30,000!’ She knew I wasn’t having her on when she saw the look on my face. I immediately jumped out of the chair and ran into the kitchen to stick on the big light to have a better look. I went about finding the perfect hiding spot immediately and settled on a fluffy dog ornament that we keep in our room – no one would be looking there!'
Travel was already on the top prize winners mind, but he has a clear idea now of how to kick off his itinerary.
'The ultimate dream is to buy a camper van. We told ourselves that we wouldn’t fly anywhere this year as we plan to make the most of seeing Ireland so this could be perfect timing.'
The National Lottery are reminding players dreaming of midweek celebrations that tickets can be purchased in-store, through the National Lottery app or at www.lottery.ie ahead of the 7.30pm cut-off time for sales this evening.
