Last weekend, the Polish lottery network recorded a significant success. In the Lotto draw from Saturday, February 21, 2026, the main prize worth over 6.8 million zloty was won. At the same time, in Western Europe, particularly in Spain and France, jackpots are rolling over in national lotteries, where prize pools in the coming days will reach from 3 to over 5 million euros.

Win in Tricity

The main Lotto prize from February 21 was won in the Polish Tricity area.

Spanish jackpot grows

The lack of a main winner in El Gordo de la Primitiva increased the pool to 5.2 million euros.

French jackpot

In Monday's French Loto draw, 3 million euros will be up for grabs.

The Polish lottery network has gained another millionaire following Saturday's Lotto draw. According to official announcements, the first-tier main prize was won by a player who sent their ticket from one of the lottery outlets in the Tricity area. Hitting the popular "six" ends a period of accumulating jackpot, although players still have a chance for high wins in supplementary games like Mini Lotto or Multi Multi. The success in Poland coincided with intense excitement in other European number game systems, where the lack of main winners has caused stakes to rise. In Spain, the Sunday draw of El Gordo de la Primitiva (February 22) did not produce a main tier winner. Two participants correctly selected the five main numbers, earning them prizes of approximately €80,000 each. Consequently, the predicted pool for the next week has risen to €5.2 million. Meanwhile in France, the lottery operator FDJ announced that after no winner on Saturday (a €2 million pool), the jackpot in the Monday, February 23rd draw will be €3 million. The history of the Polish state lottery dates back to 1955, when Totalizator Sportowy was established, beginning operational activity a year later. The first numbers game, known as Toto-Lotek, debuted in 1957, supporting the construction of sports facilities in post-war Poland.The market situation is complemented by results from smaller games, such as the Spanish Bonoloto or the ONCE lottery. In Poland, players' attention is now shifting to upcoming draws of the Ekstra Pensja and Mini Lotto systems. Experts remind that the chances of hitting the main prize remain statistically low, but regular high jackpots sustain interest in numbers games across the European Union, generating significant revenue for state budgets for social and cultural purposes.
