The winning numbers were 5, 12, 14, 27, 34, and 42.
And the bonus number to take home the overall prize was 25.
Lotto bosses have not yet revealed where the player is based or where they purchased the golden ticket.
But they urged the person who landed the winning ticket to make contact with HQ.
Those who win the Lotto have 90 days from the day of the draw to make contact.
They should contact the National Lottery claims department who will make arrangements for the prize to be collected.
And those who find out they did win should sign the back of their card and keep it somewhere safe.
The winning raffle number tonight was 3033, and it’s guessed that 62 winners claimed raffle prizes.
The prize amounted to €500 for each lucky player.
Meanwhile, there was no winner of the Lotto Plus draw, which would have made someone €1,000,000 better off.
There was also no winner of the Lotto plus two draw, with a prize set at a handy €250,000.
Separately, Lotto bosses have revealed where a ticket worth €500,000 was sold.
One delighted EuroMillions player is now half a million better off after taking home the big win last night.
The winning numbers were 4, 15, 24, 30 and the bonus number was 45.
Lotto bosses revealed that the golden ticket was bought at Centra at The Mell in Drogheda.
All players in the area and in Louth have been urged to check their tickets carefully.
Spokesperson for the National Lottery, Emma Monaghan said, “We’re absolutely delighted to celebrate this significant win for a Louth player.
“While there was no winner of last night’s EuroMillions jackpot worth €17,000,000, in total, over 29,000 players in Ireland won prizes in the EuroMillions and Plus games, including our EuroMillions Plus jackpot prize.
“This fantastic prize is a wonderful reminder that exciting moments can happen when you least expect them.”
Over 29,000 players won big in the draw, which took place last night on January 28.
