On May 1, 2025, the Lotto, SuperEnalotto, and 10eLotto draws will not take place due to the Labor Day holiday. According to the regulations governing these lotteries, draws cannot be held on public holidays, which means that players will have to wait for the next available draw date.
The Agenzia delle Dogane e dei Monopoli has officially announced that the draws originally scheduled for today will be postponed. This change is part of a broader adjustment to the lottery calendar, which aims to accommodate the holiday schedule. As a result, the draws for May 1 will now occur on Friday, May 2, at the usual time of 20:00.
But that’s not all; this domino effect continues through the week. The draws scheduled for Friday, May 2, will be moved to Saturday, May 3, and the Saturday draws will be rescheduled for Monday, May 5. This adjustment means that next week, from May 5 to May 11, there will be five draws instead of the usual four.
In explaining the changes, officials noted that the same situation occurred the previous week during the Liberation Day holiday on April 25, 2025, when draws were also postponed. These adjustments are necessary to ensure that the draws comply with national holiday regulations.
Despite these changes, the total number of weekly draws remains unchanged. Players are encouraged to check the updated calendar to stay informed about the new draw dates. This week, the draws will occur as follows:
- Thursday, May 1, 2025, postponed to Friday, May 2, 2025
- Friday, May 2, 2025, postponed to Saturday, May 3, 2025
- Saturday, May 3, 2025, postponed to Monday, May 5, 2025
As noted, the draws for Lotto and SuperEnalotto typically happen on Tuesdays, Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays at 20:00. However, when these dates coincide with public holidays, adjustments must be made. This year, the Labor Day holiday has led to significant changes in the draw schedule, similar to what happened on Liberation Day.
For those who enjoy participating in these lotteries, the next few days will be filled with opportunities to try their luck. After a brief pause on Sunday, the draws will resume on Monday, May 5, providing players with the chance to win substantial prizes. The updated calendar for the upcoming draws is as follows:
- Monday, May 5
- Tuesday, May 6
- Thursday, May 8
- Friday, May 9
- Saturday, May 10
Players are reminded that they cannot place bets online or through applications during the suspension of draws. This situation is expected to remain stable until the next national holiday, which is Republic Day on June 2, 2025. However, since this holiday falls on a Monday, it will not affect the regular draw schedule.
In summary, the draws for Lotto, SuperEnalotto, and 10eLotto are postponed for Labor Day, but players will have plenty of chances to participate in the coming days. The adjustments to the schedule ensure compliance with national holiday regulations while maintaining the integrity of the lottery system.
