It may be the seventh largest town in the Northern Territory, but it was also home to the Top End’s largest lottery win last year.

New data obtained by News Corp Australia has revealed where the nation’s luckiest Lotto hot spots and postcodes are, including the suburbs in each state and territory where the most division one winning entries are sold.

The data, taken within a 12-month period until November 30 by The Lott and Lotterywest, covers all games including Powerball, Oz Lotto, Tattslotto, Set for Life and Lotto.

The new hot spots come ahead of Saturday Lotto’s Megadraw on January 2.

While Victoria as once again took out the top spot for the largest Lotto wins for a fifth year in a row, t postcode of 0860 for Tennant Creek delivered the Northern Territory’s largest prize of $4.8 million at Enterprise Electrics.

Other lucky postcodes include 0810 for Casuarina ($1.028 million) and Nightcliff ($1 million) and 0812 for Leanyer ($410,606).

The new Lotto hot spots come ahead of Saturday Lotto’s $30 million Megadraw being held on January 2, 2021.

The Lott’s spokesperson Bronwyn Spencer said 2020’s hot spots would soon have a chance to

cement their reputations as a winning postcode or region.

“It will be interesting to see if division one wins from this draw – the biggest Saturday Lotto draw of the year – fall in any of 2020’s hot spots,” she said.

“While lottery wins can land anywhere, from time to time, we see pockets of wins in the same region or postcode emerge.

“This year we’ve seen a mix of hot spots, from bustling city centres to regional areas and smaller towns, proving that a winning hotspot can emerge anywhere across the country.”
