Strike Four has also rolled over tonight and will be $400,000 on Saturday.

Earlier big win was ‘mind-boggling’

An Auckland couple were earlier in a celebratory mood after winning more than $23m in a draw last month.

The couple, who bought the winning ticket online, bagged the mega prize from a midweek draw.

They said seeing “$23,333,333″ on their MyLotto ticket was “mind-boggling”.

“We’re both shocked to our core. It’s going to take a while to sink in, and I don’t think it will start to feel real until we see it in the bank,” the winners, who wished to remain anonymous, said after claiming the prize.

Other Powerball wins in 2025

New Zealand has had major Powerball wins across the country this year.

In January, a Wellington Lotto player won $7m, with a Taranaki player pocketing $8.3m in the same month.

A Hamilton player and a Waihī player each picked up $10.5m from Powerball wins in February.

There were three lucky Powerball multimillionaires in March, with wins in Christchurch, Dunedin and Port Chalmers.

Last Saturday, a $17.2m prize was claimed by the winner who bought their ticket from New World Whitby in Porirua.

The bumper prize is made up of a $17m Powerball win and $200,000 from a five-way split of First Division.

It is the ninth Powerball multimillionaire this year.
