In one of the most incredible lottery moments of 2025, an Irish ticket holder achieved the biggest EuroMillions win to date, securing a staggering €250 million jackpot. This historic success, which ties the all-time record, came after 20 consecutive rollovers. These rollovers raised the prize pool to the limit.
Winning Numbers and Lucky Location
The winning numbers drawn in Paris were 13, 22, 23, 44, 49, with Lucky Stars 3 and 5. The ticket that led to the record EuroMillions win was sold in Munster. Later, confirmation came that it was bought at Clifford’s Centra on Shandon Street in Cork city centre.
An Irish Lottery spokesperson commented: “We are absolutely thrilled to have heard from our Irish lottery winner. Our priority now is to give them the time and space to process this life changing event.”
Record EuroMillions Jackpot Claimed
Tuesday’s draw marked the fourth time the EuroMillions jackpot hit the €250 million maximum. According to the game’s rules, a Must Be Won draw would’ve followed if no one claimed it. Instead, Ireland did claim it, securing the biggest EuroMillions win.
Additional big wins also occurred through associated draws across Europe. For example, the wins included the UK Millionaire Maker, My Million in France, and Spain’s El Millón.
A Monumental Year for EuroMillions
Earlier in March, an Austrian player also hit a €250 million jackpot. Later, in December 2023, Austria celebrated another win of €240 million. Now, Ireland proudly joins the elite circle of record EuroMillions winners.
Whether the winner chooses to remain anonymous or go public, this EuroMillions jackpot has already made history. With six months left in 2025, could another biggest EuroMillions win be just around the corner?
Play for the Next EuroMillions Jackpot
The EuroMillions prize has now reset to €17 million. Soon, a postponed €130 million Superdraw could be announced, with funds ready.
