The National Lottery draw held on April 4, 2026, was a major event for Spain’s residents. This time, substantial amounts were distributed, sparking interest not only among regular participants but also those who usually do not follow such draws. The top prizes were won in different parts of the country, fueling excitement and conversation among Spaniards.
The first prize, amounting to €60,000 for each winning ticket, went to number 11711. This number was sold in several cities: Madrid, Almuñécar (Granada), Burgos, Zaragoza, Manacor (Baleares), Tudela (Navarra), Salas de los Infantes (Burgos), Siero (Asturias), Sant Pere Pescador (Girona), Las Palmas de Gran Canaria (Las Palmas), La Perdoma (Tenerife), Valencia, and Bilbao (Vizcaya). This spread of prizes across different regions allowed more people to feel the luck firsthand.
Second Prize and Additional Winnings
The second most important prize—€12,000 per ticket—was awarded to number 20744. Winners were located in Vélez-Málaga (Málaga), Rincón de la Victoria (Málaga), Barcelona, Madrid, Adra (Almería), Sevilla, La Orotava (Tenerife), Jerez de la Frontera (Cádiz), Fraga (Huesca), Calahorra (La Rioja), and Ponteareas (Pontevedra). Once again, the geographic diversity of the winners covered almost the entire country, highlighting the widespread popularity of the National Lottery among Spaniards.
In addition to the main prizes, extra amounts were awarded for tickets matching the last two, three, or four digits. A match of the last two digits (02, 30, 35, 48, 54, 65, 69 — twice, 81) earned participants €12 each, and if the ticket ended in 69, the amount doubled to €24. Matching the last three digits (307, 345, 359, 548, 625, 670, 759, 767, 839, 961) brought in €30, while matching four digits (2639, 5772, 7318, 9924) resulted in a €150 payout.
Approximations and additional payouts
Particular attention was given to so-called ‘approximations’—prizes for ticket numbers immediately before or after the winning numbers. For the first prize, tickets 11710 and 11712 received €1,000 each; for the second prize, numbers 20743 and 20745 were awarded €554 each. This expanded the pool of satisfied players, even if their ticket was just one step away from the top prize.
There were also payouts in the ‘centena’ and ‘termination’ categories. Ninety-nine tickets matching the hundreds of the first and second prizes (11700–11799 and 20700–20799) received €30 each. For matching the last three digits with the first prize (711), 99 prizes of €30 were awarded, while matching the last two digits (11) resulted in 999 prizes of €12 each.
Reintegro and draw results
Reintegro is another category that rewards ticket holders whose numbers end with a specific digit. This time, tickets ending in 0, 1, or 7 were winners. Each such ticket brought its owner €6. While this is a small amount, it’s a pleasant bonus to the main and additional prizes, helping players recoup part of their expenses.
As AS.com notes, official results are always published by Loterías y Apuestas del Estado, and only these are considered valid. It is important to check information through official sources to avoid mistakes or misunderstandings.
The Lotería Nacional regularly sparks discussions in Spanish society. In recent years, major prizes have often been shared among residents of different regions, keeping interest in participation high. For example, last year a similar draw brought significant winnings to Madrid and Barcelona, while in 2024 the top prize went to the Canary Islands. Such events not only bring joy to winners but also become part of the country’s cultural life, uniting people in anticipation of luck.
