Powerball Jackpot Reaches $629 Million Ahead of Thanksgiving

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. — The Powerball jackpot has grown to an estimated $629 million for the drawing scheduled on Saturday, Nov. 22, 2025, with a cash option of $291.6 million available to the winner.

The winning numbers for the upcoming drawing are 28, 32, 36, 51, 69, with a Powerball of 2, and a Power Play of 2x. Results and any winning ticket updates are currently pending.

This increase comes after no one matched all five numbers plus the Powerball in the previous drawing. The jackpot, previously at $593 million, surged by over $30 million after a series of rollovers.

This Powerball run started on Sept. 8, when two tickets from Fredericksburg, Texas, and St. Louis, Missouri, won a record $1.787 billion jackpot. Since then, the jackpot has rolled over a remarkable 30 times, maintaining player interest as the Thanksgiving holiday approaches.

Powerball drawings occur three times a week at 10:59 p.m. ET on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Saturdays. Players can win various prizes by matching numbers, beginning with $4 for matching just the Powerball.

A regular Powerball ticket costs $2, with an optional Power Play feature available for $1, which can multiply non-jackpot winnings. Additionally, players have the option to include a Double Play for another chance to win an alternate jackpot.

The last Mega Millions drawing also yielded a significant jackpot of $70 million, with a cash option of $32.3 million. That drawing is scheduled for Tuesday, shortly after the Powerball.

As excitement builds, Sunday night will reveal whether someone will become the newest Powerball millionaire just in time for the holidays. Stay tuned for updates on winning tickets and the evolving jackpots.
