Perfect end to the year as four WA Megadraw tickets pick up $1.7 million

Western Australia is set to end the year with 57 Division One winning Lotto tickets after four local tickets took home a prize in tonight’s $30 million Saturday Lotto Megadraw.

WA’s winning tickets, each worth $1,764,705, were sold at the following Lotterywest stores:

  • Winning Streak Lottery Centre in Warwick
  • Medina Newsagency
  • Spencer Village News and Lotteries in Thornlie
  • A ‘Lotterywest Network Syndicate’ with shares sold at: Tarunda Supermarket in Fitzroy Crossing, newsXpress Centrepoint Midland, Padbury News and Post, Mends Street News and Supplies in South Perth, The Golden Nugget in Boddington, Hutton Street Lottery Centre and Newsagency in Osborne Park, The Lucky Charm Warnbro, The Lucky Charm South Hedland, The Lotto Lottery Centre in Booragoon AND Crossways News and Lotteries in Subiaco

The State’s winners shared in the $30 million Division One prize pool with 13 others from around the nation.

Lotterywest spokesperson Pina Compagnone said this was a great result following strong support from WA players in the draw.

“The Megadraw is one of the most popular and anticipated Lotto events each year,” she said.

“This year’s draw saw around one million tickets purchased across the State and during our busiest hour of sales today, Lotterywest terminals produced close to 550 tickets each minute.

“We’re absolutely delighted for our winners and whether they realise they’ve struck Lotto luck yet, I’m sure their prize will provide them with a great start to the New Year.”

Over 295,000 other WA players won a prize in tonight’s Megadraw, including 50 people set to pocket a Division Two prize worth $9,490.

Tonight’s Megadraw winners are not the only ones to celebrate – with players helping Lotterywest to raise over $5 million to support the WA community.

Tonight’s winning Saturday Lotto Megadraw numbers were 9, 33, 39, 30, 2 and 17. The supplementary numbers were 22 and 41.

Ms Compagnone said things would continue to heat up next week.

“Where set to ring in 2019 with an incredible $50 million Powerball jackpot on Thursday,” she said.

Powerball tickets are now available from Lotterywest in-store, online or via the app.
