Mid-week millionaire WA player takes $1 million prize

Lotto luck is back in Western Australia after a local player beat the odds on last night’s Wednesday Lotto draw, taking home a cool $1 million prize.

The ticket was one of two Division One winners produced across the nation and was purchased online by a Lotterywest member.

Lotterywest spokesperson Pina Compagnone said luck was striking in threes with the win marking the third Division One Wednesday Lotto win in WA this year.

“Last night’s win is also number 33 for the year – luck certainly strikes in three’s!” Ms Compagnone said. 

Lotterywest is waiting to hear from WA's newest Division One winner.

When you play Lotterywest games, the money stays in WA and supports the community through Lotterywest grants.

Last month, Lotterywest supported iconic WA organisations Screenwest and Perth Festival with $7 million each. This will go towards the development, support and promotion of film, television and digital media production in WA, as well as support free community events for the Perth Festival 2019.

Next chance to win big?

Excitement is building for Super Saturday when a $20 million Saturday Lotto prize pool will go up for grabs on 1 September – just in time for Father’s Day.

Lotterywest confirmed that 8 Superdraw winners have shared in over $13 million in Division One prizes so far this year.

Superdraw tickets are available until 6pm Saturday from Lotterywest in-store, online or through the app.
