Millions of Australians are expected to purchase a ticket ahead of tonight's record-breaking $200 million Powerball jackpot.
The jackpot is the biggest lottery offer in the country's history, surpassing the $160 million Powerball draw in 2022 which was shared between three winners.
It's anticipated thousands of entries per minute will be generated at lottery outlets and online, according to officials from The Lott.

The chances of winning division one Powerball are more than 134 million to one. You are far more likely to be struck by lightning multiple times than win Powerball.
"This Powerball roll has been one for the Australian lottery history books," The Lott spokesperson James Eddy said.
"We're anticipating a rush online and in-store in the lead up to the record-breaking $200 million Powerball draw.
"Given the anticipation of the record-breaking $200 million Powerball draw, our advice to players is to get in early to avoid missing out on the chance to change your life.
There were 20 Powerball division one winning entries worth more than $552.15 million across Australia last year.
The draw closes at 7:30pm AEST tonight.
