No one matched all the numbers in the latest La Primitiva draw, so the jackpot grows for the next round. Ten tickets won over €20,000 each by matching five numbers plus the complementario.

No one won the La Primitiva jackpot in Thursday’s draw, so the top prize will roll over and grow for the next round. No ticket matched all six numbers plus the reintegro, and the six-number category also had no winners. The basic prize fund will increase, leaving a larger jackpot up for grabs in the next draw.

While the biggest prizes went unclaimed, ten players across Spain matched five numbers plus the complementario, winning €20,971.52 each. The winning tickets were sold in Burgos, Conil de la Frontera (Cádiz), Palafrugell (Girona), Girona, Lleida, Vilalba (Lugo), two locations in Madrid, Alcorcón (Madrid), and Torrent (Valencia). For players who added El Joker, the winning code was 3341852, which offered a separate chance to win a million-euro prize.

Spanish media reports put the jackpot for the 10 September 2026 draw at approximately 12.1 million euros. No player claimed the top prize, laSexta reported.

The winning numbers for the 10 September draw were 17, 26, 35, 44, 45, and 48. The complementario was 3, and the reintegro was 5. Players can check results through official Loterías y Apuestas del Estado channels or at authorized retailers. Keep the original ticket in good condition until any prize is collected.

How to collect a prize depends on its amount. Winnings under €2,000 can be claimed at any of the nearly 11,000 official lottery outlets. For prizes of €2,000 or more, winners must go to a BBVA or CaixaBank branch, whether or not they are customers. These payments carry no commission. For online play, smaller prizes go directly into the player’s Lotobolsa account, while larger amounts require a formal request and verified account details.

La Primitiva divides prizes into several categories. The top prize requires six correct numbers plus the reintegro, followed by six numbers, then five plus the complementario, and down to three correct numbers. The El Joker game, available for an extra euro, gives each ticket a unique seven-digit code. Matching all seven digits wins a million euros.

Telecinco and LNE reported that, after the 10 September 2026 rollover, the next La Primitiva draw was rescheduled to the nearest standard date, Saturday, because there was no jackpot winner. The change followed several previous rollovers, including one after the 7 September draw, which added to the growing prize pool and heightened public interest.

Lottery prizes up to €40,000 are tax-free in Spain. Any amount above that is taxed at 20% on the excess. For example, a single winner of a €13 million jackpot would have €2,592,000 withheld, receiving just over €10.4 million after taxes. A portion of every big win so goes back to the state.

La Primitiva draws take place every Monday, Thursday, and Saturday, with results published from 21:40. Players who missed out this time will have another chance in a few days. The lottery dates back to 1763 under Carlos III, making it one of Europe’s oldest games of chance. After a long break, it returned in its current form in 1985 and remains a regular part of Spanish life, much like the cycling drama of the Vuelta a España.

La Primitiva’s popularity reflects its straightforward format and low ticket price, alongside the appeal of big jackpots. With no top winner this Thursday, the prize pool grows again, and more players are likely to try their luck in the next draw.
