"When is the next Powerball drawing? Jackpot hits $925 million after no big Sept. 27 winner"
The estimated $856 million Powerball jackpot remains unclaimed, increasing excitement for the upcoming Sept. 30 drawing.
The Powerball jackpot drawing on Wednesday night did not produce a winner, which means the prize money will continue to grow for the next drawing on September 30th. This year, we have seen the Powerball jackpot reach incredible heights, and it is now getting closer to breaking records.
The upcoming drawing on September 30th will determine the fifth Powerball jackpot winner of 2023. Could it be you? Before you rush out to buy your Powerball tickets, let's go over some important information about drawing days, times, how to play the lottery in Arizona, and where you can watch the draw.
The next Powerball draw will take place on Saturday, September 30th. The drawing is scheduled for 10:59 p.m. ET or 7:59 p.m. Arizona time. The jackpot pool is estimated to grow to a staggering $925 million, with a cash value of $432.4 million.
For the previous drawing on Wednesday night, the winning numbers were 1, 7, 46, 47, and 63. The Powerball number was 7, and the Power Play was 3X. Unfortunately, no one claimed the jackpot-winning ticket for that drawing. However, it's important to note that you don't need to match all six numbers to win a prize in the Powerball.
In fact, three tickets purchased in California, Kansas, Maryland, and New York matched the first five numbers (excluding the Powerball) and won $1 million each. So, even if you don't hit the jackpot, there are still opportunities to win big.
If you're interested in participating in the Powerball, you can use the Arizona Lottery's "Where to Play" map to find the nearest store where you can purchase tickets. Each play costs $2, and you also have the option to add Power Play for an additional $1 per play, which can multiply your winnings.
Make sure to purchase your tickets before the cutoff time, which is 6:59 p.m. Arizona time on the night of the draw. The Powerball drawing is streamed live on the lottery website and may also be aired on local television stations in your area.
To win the Powerball jackpot, you must match all six numbers on your ticket. However, even if you don't hit the jackpot, you can still win smaller prizes by matching five numbers. The Powerball website has a helpful chart to see what you have won if you don't win the jackpot.
If you are lucky enough to win the Powerball jackpot, you have two payout options. The first option allows you to receive the jackpot amount spread out over 30 years as an annual payment. The second option gives you just over half of the jackpot amount as a lump sum payment.
Remember, the Powerball drawings occur three times a week on Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday at 10:59 p.m. ET or 7:59 p.m. Arizona time. So, mark your calendars and get ready for the next drawing on September 30th. Who knows, you could be the next big Powerball winner!
