Lotto NZ has revealed one lucky winner has struck gold, winning a mega $33.5 million with Powerball tonight.
Powerball was not struck on Saturday and has rolled over to Wednesday night, where the jackpot was $33.5 million.
The prize is made up of $33 million from Powerball First Division and $500,000 from Lotto First Division.
The Powerball numbers are 33, 31, 15, 5, 4 and 8. The bonus ball is 29 and the Powerball is 10.
Lotto NZ said the winning ticket was sold at Fresh Choice Merivale in Christchurch.
Wednesday's winner is the ninth Powerball multi-millionaire of 2023, and the win comes just over a month after a $10.5 million Powerball prize was won by a couple from Auckland.
One other lucky Lotto player will also be celebrating after winning $500,000 with Lotto First Division in tonight's live Lotto draw. The winning ticket was sold on MyLotto to a player from Auckland.
Meanwhile, Strike Four has rolled over and will be $500,000 on Saturday night.
Anyone who bought their ticket from any of the above stores should check their ticket as soon as possible in-store, on MyLotto, or through the MyLotto App.
