Western Australians can start dreaming big with $60 million on offer in tonight’s Powerball jackpot.
The past five-week jackpot run has seen no one across the country match the numbers to a Division One Powerball prize, which has resulted in tonight’s $60 million jackpot.
Up to one-in-six Australian adults are expected to have an entry in tonight’s draw.
Lotterywest spokesperson James Mooney said Lotterywest HQ has been humming with excitement this week, with a $60 million Powerball jackpot following the launch of new Lotto game, Millionaire Medley.
The new game offers three draws each week, on a Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, and provides up to six Division One winners a guaranteed $1 million prize.
“Millionaire Medley will draw every Friday starting from 20 May, meaning if you miss out on a prize in Thursday’s Powerball draw, you can still round off your week with a Millionaire Medley ticket” he said.
“There’s $60 million on offer in tonight’s Powerball draw, and we can’t wait to see if a West Aussie takes home the prize.
“We are expecting our busiest period for ticket sales between 4pm and 5pm on Thursday afternoon, predicting more than 500 tickets to be sold each minute.
“Our advice is to get your tickets early and make sure they’re registered so we can contact you if you win.”
The most frequently drawn winning numbers from the main barrel are 4, 6, 20, 25 and 34 while the least frequently drawn numbers are 8, 11, 28 and 29.
This five-week jackpot run has seen more than $7 million raised so far for Lotterywest’s grants program supporting events like Subi Blooms, which will display the biggest, most breathtaking display of floral artistry in WA throughout the streets of Subiaco this Mother’s Day weekend.
Tickets are available until 6pm tonight in-store, online, or via the Lotterywest App.
