There was one winning ticket for last night's Lotto jackpot worth over €13 million.

The winning ticket was a €12 quick pick bought yesterday at News 'N' Choose newsagent in Loughrea, Co Galway.

Last night's prize, one of the biggest in National Lottery history, was the result of a rollover from the 11 draws held since Wednesday November 14 which failed to find a winner.

In July a series of rollovers saw the jackpot reach €16 million before it was won.

Since National Lottery games began, 322 people have become millionaires. Over €4 billion has been paid out in prize money and over €2.6 billion has been given to good causes.
