The first prize of 5 million euros is confirmed for the Italian Lottery 2022, whose draw is scheduled today, with the match that will be made during the broadcast “I Soliti ignoti – Il ritorno”, one of the most followed programmes on Italian television. For the other prizes you will have to wait for the decisions of the Lotteries Committee, in the headquarters of the State Monopolies: during the transmission, the winning tickets for the first category prizes will be announced, including the first of 5 million euros; the second and third category prizes will be established shortly before the start of the transmission. According to an estimate prepared by the Agipronews press agency, sales will settle around 6 million coupons, about 400,000 thousand less than last year (-5% and a collection deficit of 2 million euros). In the last edition, almost 6.4 million tickets were disconnected, with a 40% recovery compared to the year of the pandemic, which had been weighed by the lockdown and travel restrictions. To find the golden age of the Lottery you have to go back to the period between the eighties and nineties, when sales were even higher than 30 million tickets: the absolute record belongs to 1988 with 37.4 million coupons detached.
