The Powerball jackpot has climbed to an estimated $1.80 billion ahead of Saturday night’s drawing, officially making it the second-largest Powerball jackpot in U.S. history.
The jackpot has been building since June 1, when a single ticket in Michigan claimed $224 million. In the 37 drawings since, no player has matched all six numbers — the most drawings ever in a single jackpot run — sending the prize pool into historic territory. It is the first time Powerball has reached this level since November 2022, when a California player won $2.04 billion.
“This jackpot is truly a historic moment in lottery history. At $1.80 billion, this Powerball run has already set records for longevity and now ranks as the second-largest prize ever. At Jackpot.com, we’re excited to help players across the country take part in a truly unforgettable moment.”
