A lucky Powerball player from New Plymouth will be over the moon after winning $23.3 million with Powerball First Division in Saturday night’s live Lotto draw.
The winning ticket was sold at Woolworths Spotswood to a player from New Plymouth.
The prize is made up of $23 million from Powerball First Division and $333,333 from Lotto First Division.
Saturday night’s winner is the twentieth Powerball multi-millionaire of 2024, and the win comes after two winners from Pōkeno and Tauranga scored themselves a sweet $5.25 million each in November. Both winners are looking forward to buying their first homes.
Two other lucky Lotto players will also be celebrating after winning $333,333 with Lotto First Division in Saturday night’s live Lotto draw. The winning tickets were sold at Woolworths Eastgate in Christchurch and at Pak n Save Papamoa in Papamoa.
Meanwhile, Strike Four has rolled over and will be $1.1 million on Wednesday night.
