On March 19, 2025, the exciting Sorteo Extra del Día del Padre was held by ONCE, revealing the winning number as 29491 and the special series as 16. This annual event not only celebrates Father’s Day but also distributes significant cash prizes, making it one of the most anticipated lotteries in Spain.
This year's draw featured an enticing total prize pool amounting to over 22 million euros. The grand prize of an astonishing 17 million euros was awarded to anyone holding the winning number 29491 with series 16. Along with the top prize, additional funds were distributed among 99 winners of 40,000 euros each for the same number, 900 winners of 1,500 euros each for the last four digits (9491), 9,000 winners of 100 euros for the last three digits (491), and 90,000 winners of 10 euros for the last two digits (91). Lastly, 900,000 winners scooped up 5 euros for the last digit (1).
For those who purchased their tickets online through JuegosONCE, the prize amount is deposited directly into their virtual accounts, providing a seamless experience in claiming winnings. Meanwhile, individuals who bought their tickets from vendors or authorized points of sale can claim their rewards at designated financial institutions or ONCE centers. The draw results brought joy not only to the winners but also offered a respite for Valencia, where the first prize once again landed, echoing similar sentiments from 2021.
The excitement doesn’t end here; on March 21, 2025, the Cuponazo will offer a massive 6 million euros, and the EuroJackpot will present an impressive 98 million euros. There's also an upcoming special draw by the Lotería Nacional for Father’s Day scheduled for March 22, with a top prize of 15 million euros. This upcoming event continues the tradition of celebratory draws surrounding significant holidays.
Tax considerations play a crucial role in understanding these winnings. The prize of 17 million euros incurs a 20% tax rate on amounts exceeding 40,000 euros. This results in a taxation of 3,392,000 euros, leaving winners with a net amount of 13,608,000 euros.
In the wake of this successful event, the ONCE organization has solidified its position as a significant contributor to the joy of many during festive occasions. The recent storms brought devastation to Valencia, marking this moment as not just a random lottery win but as a significant uplift for the community.
This year, as families celebrate Father’s Day, the excitement of the lottery draws adds a delightful twist to the occasion. Whether participants walked away with large sums or smaller amounts, the energy and anticipation surrounding the event left a lasting impression.
For those hoping for a second chance or another shot at significant prizes, mark your calendars for the next Extra del Día de la Madre, happening on May 4, which will replicate the prize structure of the Father’s Day lottery.
If by chance you did not hold the winning coupon, all hope is not lost; the Cuponazo on March 21 offers another opportunity to secure grand prizes and the chance to enhance one’s life financially. With so many opportunities for prizes, the excitement is bound to continue.
Moreover, for future curiosities regarding past draws, participants are encouraged to check results via official channels like the JuegosONCE webpage or via trusted news outlets to confirm their respective numbers and prize entitlements.
Overall, the Sorteo Extra del Día del Padre represents more than just a lottery; it symbolizes community celebration, camaraderie, and a shared hope among participants for luck and prosperity.
