On August 18, 2019, the CT Lottery, in conjunction with POWERBALL®, launches the First POWERBALL Millionaire of the Year? second-chance prize promotion in which Powerball players in Connecticut could win a trip to celebrate New Year's Eve in Times Square in New York City along with a chance to win an additional $1 million. The special drawing for the First POWERBALL Millionaire of the Year will occur on January 1, 2020, just after midnight, during ABC’s live broadcast of Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve with Ryan Seacrest.
“The CT Lottery is excited to partner with Powerball to give our players a chance to win a fun-filled VIP trip to New York City, plus a chance to be the first Powerball millionaire of the year,” said CT Lottery President and CEO Greg Smith. “I really hope a Connecticut winner brings home the $1 million prize.”
Connecticut

City in late December to enjoy a once-in-a-lifetime trip experience, including
the Christmas Spectacular Starring the Radio City Rockettes at Radio City Music Hall and holiday cruise on the Hudson River with dinner and entertainment. The experience also includes round-trip airfare, hotel accommodations, and an exclusive New Year's Eve gala at the Crowne Plaza Hotel, featuring live entertainment and prime viewing of the Times Square ball drop. One lucky trip winner will be randomly drawn to win $1 million.
