Powerball jackpots to $20 million on Thursday, April 1 | Draw 1298 details
Someone could hop into the Easter weekend a millionaire, with the Powerball prize hitting a whopping $20 million.
The Powerball jackpot has hit $20 million giving someone the chance to become a millionaire just in time for the Easter weekend in Thursday’s draw.
The winning numbers are 27, 23, 1, 26, 25, 13 and 7. The Powerball is 15.
There was no top prize winner on Thursday, but three people won a division two prize of $141,345 and 47 people won $5,513.45 in division three.
The top prize has now jackpotted to the next draw.
Powerball has already jackpotted to $20 million four times this year. The last time Powerball was won at $20 million was in January, when it was shared by two players, one from Queensland and one from NSW.
“Two of 2021’s Powerball division one winners have come from Queensland, while the other two have come from NSW. Will good fortune continue to shine on players from these states or will we see a Powerball win land elsewhere in Australia?” said The Lott’s Lauren Cooney.

The most recent Powerball division one winner was just two weeks ago, when a Sydney woman took home $50 million.
“It’s certainly going to make life easier. It’s going to help us all so much. We will look after our family first. I am sure they will have some things they want to do with the prize,” she said.
“And there’s going to be lots of shopping sprees. I love shopping, so I can’t wait. And we might get a new house too, who knows.”
This year there have been four Powerball division one winners and $120 million paid out in division one prize money.
