Players should be aware that while the first 40,000 euros of any prize are exempt from taxation, any amount exceeding this will be taxed at a rate of 20%. This means that only those who win the major prizes will need to consider tax implications.

Tickets for this special draw are currently available for 15 euros each.

The Lotería Nacional has a rich history dating back to the 19th century and remains one of the most popular games in Spain. The draw this Saturday was particularly special as it marked the 50th anniversary of the Hospital Clínico Universitario de la Virgen de Arrixaca, with the lottery ticket dedicated to this significant milestone.
