The El Gordo lottery, officially known as El Gordo de la Primitiva, is one of Spain’s most popular lottery games. Established in 1985 by Loterias y Apuestas del Estado, this lottery was designed to operate all national lotteries within Spain. The El Gordo lotto game quickly became a favourite due to its generous payouts and favourable odds.

With a minimum jackpot of €5 million, the lottery can expand significantly due to its lack of rollover limits. This means the jackpot keeps increasing until it’s won, creating a dynamic and enticing game.
