The next Powerball drawing will take place on Saturday, December 14, 2025, as the jackpot climbs to an estimated $1 billion. The drawing is scheduled for 10:59 p.m. EST.
The prize has grown after 41 consecutive drawings without a jackpot winner. Officials confirmed that three tickets from Maryland, Michigan, and New Jersey matched all five white balls on December 10, but none claimed the top prize.
Next Powerball Drawing Time and Current Jackpot Status
The main keyword “When is the next Powerball drawing” is central to today’s update as the game approaches one of its largest jackpots in history. According to lottery officials, the next drawing is set for Saturday, December 14, 2025, at 10:59 p.m. EST. Drawings take place every Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday from the Florida Lottery studio in Tallahassee.
The jackpot currently sits at an estimated $1 billion with a cash option of $461.3 million. This marks the seventh-largest prize in Powerball history and the second time this year the top prize has exceeded $1 billion. Wednesday’s drawing produced winning numbers 10, 16, 29, 33, 69, with Powerball 22 and a Power Play of 3x. No ticket matched all six numbers.
Three players matched all five white balls. Each secured a $1 million payout before taxes. There were no Match 5 + Power Play winners. The run continues because no ticket has claimed the jackpot since September 6, 2025, when two tickets split a $1.787 billion prize.
Players select five numbers from 1 to 69 and a Powerball number from 1 to 26. The odds of winning the jackpot are 1 in 292.2 million. Tickets cost $2 and are sold at authorized lottery retailers nationwide.
What the Growing Jackpot Means for Players and the Lottery
The rising prize has drawn increased national attention as more players participate during high-jackpot cycles. Large jackpots typically lead to higher sales, which further accelerates prize growth. Officials note that while interest increases, the odds remain unchanged.
The December 14 drawing is expected to produce strong ticket sales in the final 24 hours, based on prior billion-dollar runs. High-value jackpots also raise security and verification protocols across state lottery systems to prepare for a possible winner.
The next Powerball drawing remains one of the most anticipated of the year. As December 14 approaches, interest continues to build around the $1 billion prize and the streak of drawings without a winner.
