(KMDL-FM) Sources at the Louisiana Lottery have confirmed a $50,000 winner in the multi-state Powerball lottery game. Ironically, this big win comes as a $1 million Powerball winner sold in Louisiana for a drawing last April is 24 hours away from expiring.

No million-dollar winners were sold in Louisiana for this past Saturday's drawing. Still, in the drawing in question back in April, the state won 11 million-dollar or more prizes in one of Powerball's most historic winning nights ever.

The Powerball drawing for last night, Saturday, October 24, 2026, did not produce any epic wins. In fact, only five other tickets sold across the Powerball footprint earned a prize larger than the $50,000 prize that was won in Louisiana.

What Were The Winning Powerball Numbers for Saturday, October 24, 2026?

The winning numbers drawn for the October 24, 2026 Powerball game were:

04   05   15   19   55   Powerball 19   Power Play x2

No tickets sold for Saturday's Powerball matched the numbers needed to claim the game's top prize. There were also no Match 5 Million wins reported either.

In Lotto and Easy 5, the other big-money games that the Louisiana Lottery holds drawings for on Saturday, there were no jackpot winners. The top prizes in those contests will rise to $875,000 for Lotto and $70,000 for Easy 5. Those games will next draw on Wednesday.

When Are the Next Lottery Drawings in Louisiana?

Mega Millions, the other multi-state lottery game available in Louisiana, has a jackpot prize listed at $443 million. That game will draw next on Tuesday. The Next Powerball drawing will be on Monday night. The estimated jackpot prize in Monday's Powerball is $687 million.
