Saturday Powerball Drawing Rolls Jackpot to $1.1 Billion

TALLAHASSEE, Fla., Aug. 31, 2025 (AP) - The Powerball jackpot continued its historic climb Saturday, rolling past the billion-dollar mark after no ticket matched all six numbers in the August 30 drawing.
The winning numbers drawn Saturday night were 3, 18, 22, 27 and 33, with the red Powerball 17 and a 3x Power Play multiplier. No ticket captured the jackpot, pushing the estimated prize for Monday’s Labor Day drawing to $1.1 billion annuity ($498.4 million cash option).
Although there was no grand prize winner, players nationwide still scooped up substantial prizes in lower tiers:
