Mallorca’s million-euro moment as lucky lottery ticket lands in Illetas

We’ve all imagined it. The numbers are drawn one by one, your heartbeat quickens, and suddenly you realise your ticket matches. For one incredibly lucky EuroMillions player in Mallorca, that fantasy has become reality after scooping Spain’s coveted El Millón prize in the latest draw.

The winning ticket was sold in Illetas, turning an ordinary evening into one that someone there will never forget. While the eye-watering €98 million EuroMillions jackpot rolled over after nobody matched all five numbers and two Lucky Stars, one player on the island still woke up a millionaire thanks to Spain’s exclusive El Millón game.

A life-changing ticket

The winning El Millón code, FVR40362, was validated at a lottery outlet in Cas Català-Illetas, instantly making one ticket holder €1 million richer. The prize is unique to Spain and guarantees that one player wins €1 million in every EuroMillions draw, regardless of whether the main jackpot is claimed.

For many residents and visitors, the news has sparked plenty of excitement, with hopefuls wondering whether the mystery millionaire has already discovered their good fortune or whether the life-changing ticket is still tucked away in a wallet, handbag or kitchen drawer.

Bigger jackpot ahead

The main EuroMillions jackpot was not won on Tuesday night, meaning the prize fund now climbs to an estimated €111 million for the next draw on Friday.

The winning EuroMillions numbers drawn on Tuesday were 13, 17, 33, 35 and 39, with Lucky Stars 7 and 12. Although no one claimed the top prize, players in Spain enjoyed success across several prize categories, including Mallorca’s brand-new millionaire.

For now, all eyes are on Illetas, where one anonymous winner has every reason to celebrate. Whether they choose to travel the world, buy their dream home or simply enjoy the financial freedom that comes with such an extraordinary windfall, one thing is certain: this week’s EuroMillions draw has already changed one life on the island forever.
