Lottery Nacional Results Announced in Spain: Main Prize Goes to Galicia. On Saturday, May 16, the latest Lottery Nacional draw took place. The main prize of €60,000 was awarded to a resident of Galicia. The second prize was distributed among several provinces, including Cadiz, Malaga, and Seville.
The latest draw of the Lotería Nacional in Spain took place on Saturday, May 16. According to El Confidencial, the top prize of €60,000 per winning ticket went to number 59203. This ticket was sold in Marina, province of Pontevedra, and was the sole winner of the first prize in this draw.
The second most significant prize—€1,200 per ticket—went to number 36848. Winning tickets were sold in several regions: in Cádiz (La Línea de la Concepción, Algeciras, Guadiaro), Málaga (Estepona, San Luis de Sabinillas), as well as in Gijón, Cartes, Cabanillas del Campo, Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, Vielha, Ayegui, and Seville. In total, €120,000 was distributed for this number across the series.
Other winning combinations included tickets with four, three, and two matching digits. Matching four digits (1641, 8389, 5808, 1759) earns €150 per ticket; three digits (210, 516, 975, 929, 034, 784, 697, 536, 742, 869) pay €30, and two digits (83, 58, 03, 02, 51, 76, 79, 86, 12) pay €12. Results for all categories are published on the official website of the organizers.
This time, the winning numbers for ticket refunds (reintegro) are 3, 4, and 9. If the last digit of your ticket matches any of these, the player receives a refund of the ticket price.
Organizers remind participants: if winnings exceed €2,000, everyone who shared the ticket must present identification at the bank to collect the prize. Banks authorized to pay out large winnings include Abanca, Banco Sabadell, BBVA, CaixaBank, Cajasur, Cajamar, Caja Rural, Ibercaja, Kutxabank, and Unicaja. Prizes over €10,000 are subject to a 20% tax.
The ticket price for the Saturday draw is 6 euros, which is twice as much as on Thursday. However, the main prize is also higher — 60,000 euros compared to 30,000 euros on Thursdays. Unlike the Christmas draw, which features 195 series for each number, a regular Saturday draw only has 10 series, making the distribution of winnings more concentrated.
On the same day, after the conclusion of the Lotería Nacional, the Bonoloto (21:30), Primitiva and Joker (21:40) draws begin. For comparison, Eurojackpot winners were also determined on Friday — details on payout rules and deadlines can be found in the article on Eurojackpot results.
Participation in the Lotería Nacional is not limited by citizenship, and tickets can be purchased both at traditional retail locations and online. Sales for the current draw closed at 12:30, after which no new purchases were possible. Organizers recommend securing shares in advance when buying tickets collectively to avoid disputes during prize payments.
Lottery draws remain one of the most popular forms of gambling in Spain. In addition to regular draws on Thursdays and Saturdays, there are also special and holiday draws throughout the year with increased prize funds, notably the Christmas and Niño draws. In 2026, interest in lotteries remains high, and the rules for taxation and prize payments remain unchanged.
