Powerball Jackpot Rolls to $707 Million After No Winner on July 29

The Powerball jackpot has climbed to an estimated $707 million after no ticket matched all six numbers in the Wednesday, July 29, 2026 drawing. That makes it the largest Powerball prize offered so far in 2026. The advertised figure is the annuity jackpot, paid over three decades; the one-time cash option is smaller, estimated at about $309.7 million before taxes. The July 29 drawing had been advertised at an estimated $663 million before rolling over.

In the Wednesday, July 29, 2026 drawing the winning numbers were 30, 36, 40, 42 and 57 with a red Powerball of 2. No ticket matched all six numbers, so the top prize rolled over once again. The next drawing is set for Saturday, August 1, 2026, with the estimated jackpot rising to $707 million and an estimated cash value of about $309.7 million.

At an estimated $707 million, this is the largest Powerball jackpot offered so far in 2026 and the second-biggest lottery prize of the year, trailing only the $800 million Mega Millions prize claimed by a Florida ticket buyer on July 28, 2026. It remains far short of Powerball's all-time record of $2.04 billion, set in 2022. The odds of matching all five white balls plus the red Powerball to win the jackpot are roughly 1 in 292.2 million. A jackpot keeps growing with each drawing until a single ticket finally claims the top tier.

Powerball draws are held Mondays, Wednesdays and Saturdays at 10:59 p.m. ET. Players pick five main numbers from 1 to 69 and one Powerball from 1 to 26.
