A resident of Sestao has secured 573,615 euros from La Primitiva. The winning ticket was validated at a local administration. Several other regions also saw significant prizes distributed.

A single La Primitiva ticket validated at the lottery office on Vicente Blasco Ibáñez street in Sestao, Bizkaia, has brought its owner 573,615 euros. The Saturday draw also produced another winner of the same amount in Mataró, Barcelona.

Beyond the main prizes, four secondary prizes of 46,500 euros each went to tickets sold in La Parra (Badajoz), Ponteareas (Pontevedra), and two towns in Valencia province. The next La Primitiva draw will offer a jackpot of 12.1 million euros.

The official results confirm that the winning ticket in Sestao was sold at the administration located at Vicente Blasco Ibáñez, 4.

The winning numbers for the 5 September 2026 draw were 3, 12, 19, 31, 45, and 47. The complementary number was 01, and the reintegro was 3. The El Joker number was 6 414 438. La Primitiva is played by choosing six numbers from 1 to 49, with each bet costing one euro.

Prizes are divided into categories. The Special Category requires matching all six main numbers plus the reintegro. The first category is for all six main numbers, and lower categories reward partial matches, down to three correct numbers or just the reintegro. Only the top prizes reach amounts that can change a winner's finances.

Prizes under 2,500 euros can be collected at any lottery office. Larger prizes, like the one in Sestao, must be claimed at a bank with the winning ticket and ID. For group bets, everyone involved must be present. Since 2020, only winnings above 40,000 euros are taxed, with a 20% deduction applied automatically. If a prize is shared, it should be split at the bank to avoid extra gift tax later.

According to official data, there were no winners in the Special Category (6 + reintegro) for this draw, meaning the jackpot rolled over and increased to 12.1 million euros for the next event. This information is regularly published by the state operator, ensuring transparency and accuracy in prize distribution.

La Primitiva draws are held three times a week—Monday, Thursday, and Saturday. The green ticket covers a single draw, while the brown ticket allows entry in both Thursday and Saturday draws if validated before Thursday's game.

Lottery games are a regular part of life in Spain, and the Basque Country has a long tradition of participation. A recent report highlights the region's history with lotteries and community ties. The Sestao win adds to this ongoing story.

The process for claiming prizes is clear, and the rules are straightforward. For the Sestao winner, the next steps are to keep the ticket safe, go to the bank, and prepare for a new financial reality.
