Powerball Jackpot Surges to $707 Million; LOTTO Jackpot Rises to $2.108 Million for Saturday Draw

Little Rock, Ark.

The Powerball and LOTTO jackpots are on the rise for Saturday night. 

The Powerball® jackpot is $707 million, the draw game’s largest jackpot since the $1.817 billion jackpot won in Arkansas in December 2025. Five jackpots have been won since then, including another Arkansas player who won $250.8 million.

Powerball drawings are held every Monday, Wednesday and Saturday. Tickets cost $2 per play. For an extra $1 players can purchase the optional Power Play® multiplier, which can increase non-jackpot winnings by 2, 3, 4, 5 or 10 times. Ticket sales cut off at 8:59 p.m. on draw nights.

Also drawing Saturday night, the Arkansas-exclusive draw game LOTTO offers big winnings to in-state players. Its jackpot rises to $2.108 million and nears the game’s second-highest jackpot of $2.338 million. Previous jackpot winners include Yell County, Sebastian County and Pulaski County residents. This week, eleven winning LOTTO tickets worth $500 or more were sold for Wednesday night’s draw, including three tickets worth $1,500.

LOTTO drawings are held every Wednesday and Saturday at 9 p.m. Tickets cost $2 per play, and ticket sales cut off at 8:59 p.m. on the night of the draw.

Powerball and LOTTO are available for purchase at licensed Arkansas Scholarship Lottery (ASL) retailers and through retailer apps from ASL’s Play on the Go partners. For more information about the Play on the Go options, visit the Where To Play page on the ASL website.
