There's good news for one lucky Lotto player as a millionaire ticket has been sold in the county.

The Kerry player scooped €1 million in last night's (Wednesday) Lotto Plus 1 draw making them the third National Lottery millionaire of 2023.

The overnight millionaire chose the right combination of numbers which were: 8, 11, 26, 27, 38, 45 and the bonus was 43.

The National Lottery has confirmed that it will reveal the winning store location tomorrow morning (Friday).

While there was no winner of last night’s €2.3 million jackpot prize, over 65,000 players won prizes, including two winners of the Match 5 + Bonus prize each winning €18,022. The two players purchased their tickets online or on the National Lottery App.

Next Saturday’s Lotto jackpot is now set to roll to an estimated €2.8 million. The winning Lotto numbers last night (Wednesday) were: 2, 10, 16, 17, 29, 47 and the bonus was 7.

Following the midweek draw, the National Lottery are now appealing to players, especially in Kerry, to check their lottery tickets carefully.

The big winners are advised to sign the back of their winning tickets and keep them safe.

A local cafe in Killarney is hosting an event to celebrate cherished sporting memories in Killarney.

The event is taking place in Clann Housing, Coill na Darrach on June 28 and it is part of the wider Alzheimer Society of Irelands sporting memories initiative.

There will be stories, photographs, and memorabilia shared on the day.

The Alzheimer Society of Ireland is organising a sporting memories initiative which aims to harness the power of sport to spark memories and create connections with people living with dementia.

John Don O’Donoghue, who is a joint organiser of the event, is emphasising the importance of events like these for those who suffer with dementia.

He said: “They offer people, especially older adults and those living with dementia, a meaningful way to reconnect – not just with their memories, but with each other. We’ve seen first-hand how powerful it can be when someone’s face lights up remembering a match, a goal, or a moment they thought was long forgotten.”

All members of the community are welcome to attend and take part. The event is free and guests are encouraged to bring their own photos, memorabilia and stories to share.

For more information, please contact: Triona Heffernan or John Don O’ Donoghue Email: soccermemoriescafe@gmail.com
