The UAE Lottery names third AED 5m second-prize winner

The UAE Lottery has confirmed a third AED 5 million second-prize win, naming Dubai resident Zenn Ariane Garceles as the latest recipient. The operator announced the result on August 20, 2026.

Garceles, 38, is a Philippine national living in Dubai. The operator said the prize was won through Lucky Day.

The UAE Lottery said the win follows two AED 30 million grand prizes won five weeks apart, bringing what it described as a combined AED 65 million across those recent top-tier payouts within three months. It also said Lucky Day has awarded more than AED 280 million in prizes since launch.

A spokesperson for The UAE Lottery said: “It’s extraordinary to see another AED 5 million winner emerge after such an incredible run of major prizes. We are delighted to celebrate Zenn Ariane’s win and welcome her to the group of big winners from The UAE Lottery. Every winner brings a unique story, and we look forward to seeing what this remarkable prize means for her.”

Garceles said: “I couldn’t even process it at first. I had to ask my husband how many zeros there were.” The operator added that its games are regulated by the General Commercial Gaming Regulatory Authority (GCGRA).
