Lotto bosses have given a major update on where the €8.7 million jackpot winning ticket was sold.

While the exact shop is being kept a secret until tomorrow, the National Lottery has confirmed that the ticket was sold in the Dublin 12 area. The winner of the huge Dublin jackpot has yet to come forward to claim their life-changing prize.

The winning numbers for Saturday’s Lotto draw (May 2) were: 01, 07, 27, 28, 34, 42 and the bonus was 26. The winner should sign the back of their ticket and keep it safe. They can 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 jackpot amount.

National Lottery spokeswoman Sarah Orr said: “Did you purchase your Lotto ticket for Saturday night’s draw in the Dublin 12 area? If so, you should definitely check your ticket as soon as possible! We will reveal the exact location of the winning Lotto jackpot ticket tomorrow. “Of course, that’s not the only winner we are waiting to hear from following our weekend draws as a EuroMillions player in Limerick and a Westmeath Lotto player also won big. All winners should do their best to stay calm, sign the back of their tickets and contact our prize claims team as soon as possible.”
