Scratchcards at Christmas

Add some play to Christmas

Our National Lottery Scratchcards ad show’s the nation how Scratchcards can bring unexpected fun this Christmas!

In the ad a family is sitting around a dining table after finishing their traditional Christmas feast. Instead of pulling crackers and exchanging gifts, they play a fun game involving National Lottery Scratchcards.

As music plays in the background, National Lottery Scratchcards are passed among the family members and guests. When the music stops, the lucky person holding the Scratchcard gets to scratch it off and see if they’ve won an incredible National Lottery prize.

The heartwarming seasonal ad shows how people can add some play to Christmas with Scratchcards from The National Lottery. You can watch the ad below:
