As Christmas approaches, Spain is in a euphoric mood

As Christmas approaches, Spain is in a euphoric mood. But not in the way you might think, because of El Gordo Navidad, the Christmas lottery. The lottery is actually a special, very interesting raffle that almost all Spaniards take part in. The draw, held on 22 December, is a real prize-winner, with 70% of the prize pool being returned to the winners. It is the most watched and anticipated TV event of the year, a real Christmas Fiesta. After the draw, the winners celebrate together in the streets. And that’s the extra magic of it all: families and friends come together, share the experience, rejoice together, for each other.
