Powerball Winning Numbers for April 27, 2026
The Powerball winning numbers for the Monday, April 27 drawing have been announced, with a jackpot of $130 million (equivalent to $59.1 million in cash value). Despite the substantial prize, no one claimed the jackpot this time around.
The Largest Winning Ticket in Michigan
One of the most notable Powerball wins in Michigan history was a ticket worth $842.4 million, sold in January 2024 at Food Castle in Grand Blanc. This serves as a reminder of the life-changing potential of the game.
What Were the Winning Numbers?
The winning numbers from the April 27 drawing are:
- White Balls: 18, 31, 33, 36, and 62
- Powerball: 3
- Power Play Multiplier: 3x
These numbers were drawn during the regular Powerball session, which took place at 10:59 p.m.
No Jackpot Winner This Time
Despite the high jackpot amount, there were no winners who matched all five white balls and the Powerball. This means the jackpot will roll over to the next drawing, which is scheduled for Wednesday, April 29.
Next Drawing and Ticket Sales Deadlines
The next Powerball drawing is set for Wednesday, April 29, at 10:59 p.m. Drawings occur every Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday. In Michigan, in-store and online ticket sales are available until 9:45 p.m. on the night of the draw. Players should make sure to purchase their tickets before this deadline to be eligible for the upcoming drawing.
How Much Does It Cost to Play?
A standard Powerball ticket costs $2. Players can also choose to add the Power Play feature for an additional $1 per play. This feature multiplies non-jackpot prizes by two, three, four, five, or 10 times, depending on the randomly selected multiplier.
Understanding the Power Play
The Power Play multiplier is randomly selected before each drawing. Notably, the 10X multiplier is only available when the advertised jackpot annuity is $150 million or less. This makes it a valuable addition for players looking to increase their potential non-jackpot winnings.
