A National Lottery spokesperson said: “It has been an incredible Easter weekend for two of our big winners from Donegal and Dublin. Saturday night’s Lotto and Lotto Plus draws saw over 103,000 players nationwide win prizes.

"This includes a Donegal player who won the life-changing amount of €1 million in a special Lotto Plus Raffle event which guaranteed that one player would win that huge amount in addition to the usual €500 Raffle prize.

"We are advising all our players in Moville in Donegal to carefully check their tickets today as one player now has a ticket worth €1,000,500. The winner should sign the back of their ticket and keep it safe.

“And of course, that was not our only big winner of the weekend. We are now calling on our online players in Dublin to check their emails because one of these players has an incredibly special notification waiting for them on their online account to inform them that they are a millionaire after winning the €1 million Daily Million top prize from the Good Friday 9PM draw.”
