Powerball Winning Numbers for Tonight’s $500 Million Jackpot: Are You the Next Multimillionaire?
• Hot Trendy News
Winning numbers for the Wednesday, April 22, 2026 Powerball drawing are 24 – 29 – 32 – 49 – 63 with a red Powerball of 11 and Power Play 2X. The jackpot was estimated at $100 million with a cash option of roughly $46.4 million before taxes.
No ticket matched all six numbers, so the grand prize rolls over for the next drawing on Saturday, April 25, when the top award is projected to climb to $118 million (cash $54.5 million).
Key takeaways for players
• Match 5 second-tier prize: Two tickets, sold in California and Pennsylvania, each won $1 million by matching the first five white balls.
• Power Play boost: Ten players who matched four white balls plus the Powerball saw their $50,000 prize doubled to $100,000 thanks to the 2X multiplier.
• Overall odds of winning any prize remain 1 in 24.9; odds of hitting the jackpot are 1 in 292.2 million.
What to do if you won
1. Sign the back of the ticket immediately and store it in a safe place.
2. Check your state’s claim deadlines; most range from 90 days to one year.
3. Consider meeting first with a financial adviser and attorney before claiming large prizes.
Upcoming deadlines and drawings
• Ticket sales for Saturday’s draw cut off between 9:45 p.m. and 10 p.m. ET in most jurisdictions.
• Wednesday, April 29, will be the final draw before May’s series of guaranteed $10 million Double Play top prizes.
Remember: Powerball tickets cost $2, or $3 with Power Play, and are available in 45 states plus Washington D.C., Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands. Always play responsibly and within your budget.
