Malaga Delight in El Niño Lottery
Malaga Delight in El Niño Lottery
It’s been a fantastic start to the new year for players of the El Niño draw in Malaga. On Saturday January 6 they were among many lucky ones to win a €200,000 top prize.
Among the areas in which the top prize winning number 94974 was sold were: Torremolinos, Arriate, Calle and Marbella.
Malaga also sold some third-tier winning prizes and that saw players win €25,000. What a way to begin 2024 with a big win in this traditional Spanish Lottery.
Popular draw in Malaga
The El Nino lottery is popular all across Spain and definitely so in Malaga. It sold 125,478 tickets for the draw worth a total of €25095 million. That was an average expenditure of €14.25 per resident and for some of them it proved to be a great decision to make.
It wasn’t just Malaga that had success though. Madrid, Las Palmas, Badajoz, Valladolid and Vizcaya also sold tickets that won the top-tier prize and that was great news for all who purchased winning ones.
Those tickets that were able to match 89634 won the second-tier prize of 75,000 euros. It was great news for those who had purchased tickets in Móstoles (Madrid). All the second-tier winners bought their tickets in that area.
‘El Niño’ has an English translation of ‘the child.’ That’s significant for this lottery as it marks the date when it’s believed the Three Kings finally arrived in Bethlehem to deliver their gifts to the baby Jesus.
More celebrations
There were post-Christmas celebrations too in San Pedro del Pinatar’s El Perolo and El Palmar in Murcia. In El Parmar, the Lottery and Betting State Administration No. 24 is owned by PIlar Alcaraz and Carmen Maria.
They were delighted after selling ten first-tier winning tickets that won their owners a total of €2 million. When news of their success in the El Niño draw became known, well-wishers arrived to congratulate them. One of the big winners was a local hairdresser who proved to be a cut above the rest.
