Villamanín Festival Commission Deposits Lottery Jackpot, Sets March 22 Registration Deadline

Winners will have to register on a new portal to verify claims.

Overview

  • The association says it has deposited about €36 million from the winning tickets into its bank account to centralize payments with full traceability.
  • A secure web platform for claimants is slated to go live in roughly two weeks, pending final tests by the legal and technical team.
  • Registration will be mandatory to seek payment through this process, with the window closing on March 22 and no claims accepted afterward.
  • The portal will verify ownership, prevent duplicate claims and fraud, and allow registrants to review and state whether they accept the proposed distribution agreement.
  • In-person assistance days will be offered in Villamanín and in León to help people register, while disputes over roughly €4 million in unofficial participations remain unresolved.
