Powerball Results for Wednesday, 30 September 2026
The white balls drawn on Wednesday were 4, 6, 23, 33 and 44, and the red Powerball was 13. The Power Play multiplier was 4x. The advertised jackpot for that drawing was US$411 million (cash value US$171.0 million), and with no jackpot winner the whole amount carries forward.
One ticket did come close: a single Match 5 prize of US$1 million was won in Texas, by a player who found all five white balls but missed the red ball. You can check the full Powerball results and the history of earlier drawings on LottoPark.
22 Drawings Since the Last Jackpot Win
The current run started after the jackpot was hit on 12 August 2026, when a single ticket from Illinois won an estimated US$1.04 billion. Since then, 21 consecutive drawings have ended without a jackpot winner, and Saturday will be the 22nd. The estimate has grown from US$22 million on 15 August to US$440 million today:
| Drawing | Estimated jackpot | Cash value | Result |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sat, 15 August 2026 | US$22 million | US$9.4 million | Rolled over |
| Wed, 2 September 2026 | US$150 million | US$65.2 million | Rolled over |
| Sat, 19 September 2026 | US$298 million | US$127.2 million | Rolled over |
| Mon, 28 September 2026 | US$389 million | US$161.7 million | Rolled over |
| Wed, 30 September 2026 | US$411 million | US$171.0 million | Rolled over |
| Sat, 3 October 2026 | US$440 million | US$183.1 million | Next drawing |
Between Wednesday and Saturday alone the estimate rose by US$29 million, and since the drawing of 23 September it has grown by more than US$100 million. The bigger the jackpot gets, the faster it tends to climb.
When Is the Next Powerball Drawing?
The next drawing takes place on Saturday, 3 October 2026 at 10:59 p.m. Eastern Time. In UTC that is 02:59 on Sunday, 4 October, so players in Europe, Africa and Asia will learn the winning numbers on Sunday morning local time. If nobody wins on Saturday, the following drawing is on Monday, 5 October. Powerball is drawn every Monday, Wednesday and Saturday.
What Happens if Nobody Wins on Saturday?
Powerball has no jackpot cap. Every drawing without a jackpot winner adds part of the ticket sales to the top prize, and the jackpot keeps growing until somebody matches all five white balls and the Powerball. Only then does it reset to its starting level of US$20 million. A jackpot above the US$400 million mark is still well below the billion-dollar prizes of recent years, so there is plenty of room for this run to continue.
