Getting Involved: How UK Residents Living in Spain Can Bet on the Lottery

As an ex-pat living in Alicante can attest, Spain has an awful lot to offer Brits abroad. With wonderful weather, friendly locals, and a real sense of community and inclusion, it’s a great place to settle when you’re looking for a home away from home, but there are always going to be facets of your old life that you miss - the little things: the daily tradition of drinking rounds of tea at work, the regional terms of endearment that strangers on the street used to address you, even the grey and rainy days that you’re so used to.
But one part of everyday life that you’re not excluded from is playing the lottery. Although you might assume this is only open to Spanish nationals, the country’s El Gordo, La Primitiva, Bonoloto, and Loteria Nacional can actually be played and won by anyone. Here’s how you can get involved.
