Italy lottery draw schedule expansion

Overview

The proposed 2027 Italian Budget Law includes plans to introduce a fifth weekly draw for the Lotto and SuperEnalotto games. These new draws are scheduled to occur every Wednesday, expanding the current schedule of Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday.

Financial projections suggest the expansion will increase state revenue by approximately 30.5 million euros in 2027, with annual revenues expected to rise to 43.1 million euros from 2028 onwards. The Customs and Monopolies Agency (ADM) will be responsible for implementing the new schedule within 60 days of the law taking effect, including managing technical requirements and potential scheduling conflicts with national holidays.

While the measure is intended to boost public funds, the proposal has prompted debate regarding its potential social impact.
