Powerball has jackpotted to an incredible $80 million, after no ticket from across the country matched the numbers to secure a Division One prize over the past five weeks.
Lotterywest spokesperson Zoe Wender said if a single WA ticket takes out next week’s entire $80 million Powerball jackpot, it would stand equal to WA’s largest Division One prize on record.
“WA’s biggest Lotto win to date is an $80 million Powerball prize, which was won by a group of 55 ladies from a gym in Perth’s northern suburbs in December 2021,” she said.
“When jackpots reach these heights, it’s a great opportunity for players to get a syndicate together with family, friends or workmates, to share the cost of a ticket and hopefully the joy of a win.
“All you need to do is gather a group of players, decide on spend per person, and head to your local retailer to set up the syndicate.”
In tonight’s draw, more than 180,000 WA players shared prizes across other divisions.
Thanks to WA players and retailers, the WA community is the winner tonight, with all available profit from every Lotto ticket purchased supporting communities across the State through Lotterywest’s grants program.
A Lotterywest grant of $90,000 is bringing people together to celebrate diversity and heritage at Broome’s 16-day multicultural festival, Shinju Matsuri, until 7 September.
Tickets for Powerball’s $80 million jackpot are available in-store, online or via the Lotterywest App until 6pm on Thursday.
