EuroMillions Record Jackpot: €250 Million on 19 August 2025

On 19 August 2025, EuroMillions reached an unprecedented milestone: a record-breaking €250 million jackpot. This made it one of the largest prizes in the history of the game, creating huge excitement among players across Europe – and sparking strong interest in Ireland.

  • The jackpot reached its maximum cap of €250 million after several consecutive rollovers with no top prize winners.
  • The winning numbers were: 24, 31, 34, 41, 43, with Dream numbers 06 and 08.
  • The jackpot-winning ticket was sold in France, according to lottery officials.

Just two months earlier, on 17 June 2025, Ireland had already made history when a ticket purchased in Cork also scooped the maximum €250 million EuroMillions jackpot.
This means that Ireland, together with France, became one of the very few countries to produce winners at the highest possible jackpot level in 2025.

🌟 Rising Excitement

Jackpots of this size always fuel a surge in ticket sales, both online and in shops. Syndicates and lottery groups in Ireland saw a noticeable increase in participation.

📺 Media Buzz

Record jackpots dominate news headlines and social media, drawing massive traffic to lottery result websites and creating a wave of excitement across communities.

🎭 A Cultural Moment

For many, EuroMillions is not just a game but a social phenomenon. In Ireland, the June jackpot win was still being talked about in pubs, workplaces, and local shops weeks after the draw.

The €250 million EuroMillions jackpot of 19 August 2025 was one of the largest ever seen in the game’s history. While the winning ticket came from France, Ireland had already celebrated its own historic €250 million jackpot in June.

These record-breaking moments don’t just create new millionaires – they spark excitement, bring communities together, and keep the lottery at the centre of public attention.
