The Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office (PCSO) announced the temporary suspension of lotto draws from Maundy Thursday to Easter Sunday, in accordance with the observance of Holy Week.
In a statement released on Facebook, the PCSO outlined that regular lotto draws will continue as scheduled from Holy Monday to Holy Wednesday, maintaining the usual selling period.
Additionally, the 24-hour continuous selling for e-lotto will remain operational during this time.
Lotto draws are set to resume on April 1 and will follow the standard selling period upon resumption. The 24-hour selling for e-lotto services will also recommence on the same date.

The PCSO's decision aligns with the annual tradition of observing Holy Week, a significant period in the Philippine calendar marked by religious observances and practices.
