Powerball Winning Numbers for August 30: No Jackpot Winner as Prize Jumps to $1.1 Billion

The Powerball drawing on Saturday, August 30, did not produce a jackpot winner. The winning numbers drawn were 3, 18, 22, 27, 33, with the red Powerball 17. The Power Play multiplier was 3x.

Despite the lack of a jackpot winner, several players still walked away with major prizes. According to Powerball’s official site, three tickets matched all five white balls and used the Power Play to win $2 million each. Another nine tickets matched all five white balls, scoring $1 million prizes.

This drawing was for a staggering $1 billion jackpot, which now rolls over to an estimated $1.1 billion for the next Powerball drawing on Monday, September 1. This makes it one of the largest Powerball jackpots in history, according to AP News.

No Jackpot Winner: Powerball Jackpot Rises Again

Saturday’s Powerball drawing brought excitement across the nation. But once again, no ticket matched all six numbers. The jackpot has now surged past the billion-dollar mark.

The last time a Powerball jackpot was hit was on January 1, 2024, when a Michigan resident claimed $842 million. That was previously the sixth-largest in history — a spot now taken over by this current rollover.

Powerball officials confirmed there were over 1.5 million winning tickets in total from the August 30 draw. These ranged from smaller amounts to six-figure wins. More than 115 tickets matched four white balls and the Powerball to win $50,000, while 27 tickets with Power Play matched the same combination and earned $150,000.

What to Expect Next: Labor Day Powerball Jackpot Hits $1.1 Billion

The next Powerball drawing is scheduled for Monday, September 1, 2025, just after 11 p.m. ET. This coincides with Labor Day, potentially increasing ticket sales as players look to become instant billionaires over the long weekend.

To win the jackpot, a player must match all five white balls and the red Powerball. Tickets cost $2, with an optional $1 Power Play to boost non-jackpot prizes.

With the jackpot now at an estimated $1.1 billion, lottery fever is likely to surge. If no one wins Monday, the prize will climb even higher. The record Powerball jackpot remains the $2.04 billion won in California in November 2022.

Powerball winning numbers, last night, did not yield a jackpot winner—but the stakes are now even higher.
