‘Tis the season for giving, and what’s more satisfying than striking it rich in the El Gordo Christmas Raffle? This Spanish lottery is a heavyweight contender in the world of lotteries, serving up mouthwatering payouts worth millions of euros. El Gordo, aka ‘The Fat One,’ lives up to its name – it’s time to feast on those fat stacks of cash!
Spain’s El Gordo lottery is drawn on 22nd December each year and is famous for its enormous jackpots. There are a total of 180,000 tickets available, each with a unique number between 00000 and 179999. These five-digit numbers are divided into ten series of 18,000 tickets each.
The number of times a number is repeated can differ from one draw to the next, but it has been as high as 195. The term decimal comes from the Latin word “decimum,” which means “tenth.” When a ticket is said to be n decimos, it refers to one-tenth of the price. Most players purchase a tenth of ticket (a decimo). It’s a cheaper option, which is why the decimo is the most popular.
Players also have the option to buy a “billete” which is a full ticket. If their raffle number is drawn, then they stand to win a MUCH bigger prize!
With a prize fund of €2.4 billion and there are over 15,000 prizes (from €200 to €4m per number) in different prize categories for each of the 17 series. If you bought a whole winning billete (number), you would win €4 million; if you bought a décimo, you would win €400,000.
The prizes are broken down between a number of larger prizes and then lots of smaller ones. In 2019, each ‘serie’ of prizes was made up of:
You have the option to buy a ticket for the El Gordo draw from numerous lottery outlets and retailers in Spain. Additionally, thanks to the convenience of the internet, you can also easily purchase tickets online through Lotto247!

Introducing El Niño lottery: where half a billion euros rain down on lucky winners every New Year’s Day. It’s Spain’s very own raffle to kickstart the year with a bang!
Similar to the El Gordo Christmas Raffle, the El Niño lottery is drawn on 6th January each year and has a total of 50 series with 100,000 tickets available for sale. Every year, El Niño pays out millions in prize money and, according to predictions, the overall prize pool is expected to be €700 million!
The name ‘El Niño’ comes from the Spanish phrase “el niño,” meaning “the little one.” But don’t let the name fool you, this little one packs a big punch, especially when it comes to the prize money!
Similar to the Spanish Christmas Lottery, Spain’s El Niño offers remarkable winning odds compared to many global lotteries. With a one-in-one hundred thousand chance, you could be the fortunate winner of the grand prize!
El Niño is renowned for being the ultimate New Year’s Raffle, bestowing a multitude of prizes upon fortunate winners. El Niño, meaning “the boy” or “the child” in Spanish, is also referred to as Spain’s New Year’s Raffle or Lotería del Niño. Previously known as the “Sorteo Extraordinario del Niño”, its name originates from the biblical event when three wise men presented gifts to baby Jesus. This extraordinary raffle occurs annually on January 6th.
There’s no better way to kickstart your New Year than with a hefty cash injection from the El Niño New Year Raffle. Imagine ushering in the New Year with a bang, celebrating a windfall that has the potential to completely transform your life! Investing in an El Niño lottery ticket could mean swapping your regular New Year’s resolutions for grand plans of travel, home ownership, or even early retirement.
Just like the vast winning opportunities they offer, both El Gordo de Navidad and El Niño are known for their limited availability of tickets. This scarcity often leads to a sell-out well before the draw date. The limited ticket availability adds an extra layer of excitement to these raffles and also contributes to the frenzy and anticipation leading up to the draw dates. Remember, with such a high demand and limited supply, it’s always good to secure your ticket well in advance.
Don’t miss out on these incredible Spanish raffles – your chance to be the next big winner!
