The historic Powerball® jackpot run ended with a $1.08 billion jackpot-winning ticket sold in California, making it the third-largest Powerball® jackpot and sixth-largest U.S. lottery jackpot.

The Powerball® ticket worth $2 million matched all five white balls drawn: 7, 10, 11, 13, and 24. The four other Powerball® tickets matched four white balls and the red Powerball® (24), winning $100,000 each. Without the $1 Power Play® option, the $2 million-winning ticket would have been worth $1 million, and the $100,000 tickets would have been worth $50,000 each. The Power Play® multiplier drawn was two.
Prior to the recent win in California, the Powerball® jackpot has been rolling since April 19, 2023, when it was last won in Ohio. In Pennsylvania alone, this jackpot run resulted in sales of nearly $96 million, profiting over $38 million to support older Pennsylvanians.
In addition to the jackpot winners, over 266,300 other PA Lottery Powerball® tickets won various prizes in Wednesday’s drawing. Among them, more than 55,200 tickets were purchased with Power Play®, and over 21,200 tickets were purchased with Double Play®. Remember to check every ticket, every time.
The Powerball jackpot has exceeded $1 billion three times in the game’s history: the record-breaking $2.04 billion jackpot last year, the $1.586 billion jackpot in 2016, and the recent $1.08 billion jackpot won on Wednesday.
