The start of 2025 has been an incredibly lucky one for a resident in Craigieburn, Victoria, who has woken up to the life-changing news of winning over $20 million in the Powerball. This win is a remarkable way to begin the year, as the lucky individual managed to score the entire $20,809,257.29 jackpot in the national draw on January 2, 2025.
This massive win comes after the person selected seven winning numbers and the Powerball number, making them the only division one winner in this draw. The winning numbers for the night were 21, 27, 9, 22, 15, 18, and 8, with the all-important Powerball number being 19. While the winner's identity is still a mystery, the excitement surrounding the win is already palpable, especially for the team at The Lucky Charm store in Craigieburn, where the ticket was purchased.

As of now, the winner may still be unaware of their incredible fortune. The Lott spokesperson Matt Hart shared that they hope the ticket holder checks their numbers soon. “Imagine the thrill of realizing you’ve just become a multi-millionaire at the beginning of a new year,” he said. The winner is encouraged to check their tickets and, if they have the winning one, contact The Lott to begin the claim process.
Interestingly, if the winner had been a member of The Lott’s Members Club and registered their ticket online, they would have already been notified. But for now, officials are eagerly waiting for the mystery person to come forward and claim their prize.
This Powerball win isn’t the only major jackpot recently, with other Aussies also celebrating smaller but still substantial wins. Two other division one winners from a recent draw each walked away with over $241,000. Additionally, there were several division three winners, with two of them from Western Australia each taking home $10,519.80.
This incredible $20 million Powerball win is just one of many large jackpots in recent times, with the total division one winnings for the fiscal year now reaching an impressive $236 million. It’s a testament to how transformative these kinds of wins can be, offering life-altering amounts of money for those lucky enough to win.
Now, we wait with bated breath to see who this mystery winner is and how their life will change thanks to this massive windfall. We can only imagine the joy and opportunities this $20 million will bring!
