Powerball Jackpot Reaches $1.6 Billion After No Winner in December 20 Drawing

The Powerball jackpot has risen to an estimated $1.6 billion after no ticket matched all six numbers in the December 20 drawing. The winning numbers were 4, 5, 28, 52, and 69, with a red Powerball of 20. The Power Play multiplier was 3x.

While the grand prize remained unclaimed, eight tickets sold across seven states—California, Florida, Iowa, Massachusetts, Michigan (two), New Hampshire, and Ohio—matched all five white balls, each winning $1 million.

The next drawing is scheduled for Monday, December 22, with the jackpot now standing at an estimated $1.6 billion, making it the fourth-largest in Powerball history. The cash value of this jackpot is approximately $735.3 million.

Powerball drawings occur three times a week, every Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday at 10:59 p.m. ET. Tickets are sold in 45 states, as well as Washington, D.C., Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands.

The odds of winning the jackpot are 1 in 292.2 million. Players can purchase tickets at authorized retailers, with sales cut-off times varying by jurisdiction.
