The excitement and expectation that surrounds the Christmas Lottery every year awakens the illusion of many to reach the coveted ‘Gordo’. In Catalonia, certain municipalities have been repeatedly blessed with luck, becoming points of reference for fortune seekers.
On the Christmas Lottery luck map, Barcelona stands out as a region of particular relevance, accumulating a total of 68 occasions in which the jackpot has fallen on its inhabitants.
This figure positions it as the epicenter of fortune in Catalonia, with the capital attracting crowds from all over Spain, especially to emblematic places such as La Rambla or Passeig de Gràcia, where the purchase of Christmas tickets becomes an annual tradition.
Christmas Lottery in Catalonia
Beyond Barcelona, other Catalan municipalities have enjoyed the generosity of the Christmas Lottery on multiple occasions. Vic, Santpedor, Cerdanyola del Vallès and Granollers are among the lucky localities, each with its own story of winning the Christmas lottery.
The dispersion of fortune among these municipalities demonstrates that fortune is not only concentrated in the capital, bringing hope to various communities in the region.
The desire to win the jackpot, always present in every corner of the country, is strengthened by the new features presented for the 2023 Christmas Lottery.
This year, five additional sets per issue have been offered for sale, for a total of 185 sets, each consisting of 100,000 issues. This increase in supply not only increases the chances of winning, but also expands the prize pool, which reaches an impressive €2.59 billion, up from €2.52 billion the previous year.
Online sales
Another significant innovation is the foray into online sales. Legendary administrations such as “Doña Manolita” and “La Bruja de Oro” have enabled the purchase of numbers through the Internet, adapting to the digital era and giving enthusiasts the opportunity to participate in the drawing regardless of their geographic location.
This modernization in ticket sales reflects the evolution of tradition, keeping excitement and participation alive, while adapting to contemporary preferences and needs.
With the Christmas Lottery drawing just around the corner, hope and excitement fill the air, weaving dreams of fortune and joy for those invested in the possibility of a dramatic change in their lives.
While the numbers are waiting to be revealed on December 22, the attention is focused on these lucky municipalities, rooted in the history of the Christmas Lottery, waiting to know if fortune will knock on their doors again in this edition.
