A EuroMillions Plus player in Kildare had a Friday night worth celebrating after scooping the top prize of €500,000 in last night’s draw.
The online player became the biggest winner in Ireland after purchasing their Quick Pick ticket online.
The winning numbers in the Friday, November 29 EuroMillions Plus draw were: 20, 33, 40, 46, 49.
The National Lottery has confirmed that a notification and email has been sent to the winner’s online account. The Kildare player is advised to make contact with the prize claims team on 1800 666 222 or email claims@lottery.ie and arrangements will be made for them to collect their prize.
As there was no winner of the €17,000,000 jackpot on offer in Friday’s main draw, Tuesday’s EuroMillions jackpot is now set to roll towards €25 million (estimated).

Sarah Ruane, spokesperson of the National Lottery said: “We are encouraging all of our online players in Kildare to log into their National Lottery accounts today to carefully check their tickets from last night’s draw as one player has officially become a top prize winner. The online player got their weekend started in style after scooping €500,000 in the EuroMillions Plus draw.
“For players hoping to still be in with a chance of winning big this weekend, tonight’s Lotto jackpot is set to roll towards an estimated €2.5 million. Tickets can be purchased in-store, through the app or at www.lottery.ie ahead of the 7.45pm cut-off time for sales this evening.”
Nearly 30 cent in every €1 spent on National Lottery games goes back to Good Causes in the areas of sport, youth, health, welfare, education, arts, heritage and the Irish Language. In total, more than €6.5 billion has been raised for Good Causes since the National Lottery was established 37 years ago.
In 2023 alone, €227.9m million was raised for local Good Causes in communities across Ireland.
