Saturday Jackpot Third Largest
Saturday’s Powerball® jackpot ranks as the third largest in Powerball® history and the third largest among all U.S. lottery jackpot games, behind only the world-record $2.04 billion Powerball® jackpot won on Nov. 7, 2022, and the $1.765 billion jackpot won on Oct. 11, 2023.
Saturday’s drawing will mark the 42nd since the jackpot was last won on May 31, 2025—setting a new game record for the most consecutive drawings without a jackpot winner. The previous record of 41 drawings ended on April 6, 2024, with a $1.326 billion jackpot win in Oregon.
Meanwhile, Friday’s Mega Millions® jackpot is an estimated $336 million.
