The Dublin player was not the only person to win in last nights lotto. In total, more than 101,000 players across the country won prizes in the Lotto and Plus draws on Saturday night, including the Dublin jackpot winner.

Elsewhere, a player in Westmeath also enjoyed a substantial win, taking home €146,878 in Saturday night’s draw. The lucky ticket was sold at The Grove Service Station in Baylough, Athlone.

National Lottery spokesperson Sarah Orr urged players in Dublin to double-check their tickets, noting that one person now holds the distinction of being the second Lotto jackpot winner of 2026.

She also confirmed that the Westmeath winner matched five numbers plus the bonus to secure their prize.

Both winners are being advised to sign the back of their tickets and store them securely. They should then contact the Lottery’s Prize Claims team to arrange collection of their winnings.

The National Lottery added that it continues to operate a range of safeguards to protect players, both online and in retail locations
