OLYMPIA — The Powerball jackpot has reached an estimated $856 million after no top-tier winners in Wednesday’s drawing, officially ranking it as the eighth-largest prize in the game’s history, Washington’s Lottery announced. The next Powerball drawing is scheduled for Saturday, August 8, 2026, at 7:59 p.m. PT, with the estimated jackpot at $856 million.
The Powerball jackpot continues to grow following a series of rollovers. In the past week alone, Washington players have won four separate $50,000 prizes by matching four white balls and the Powerball. The retailers that sold the winning tickets are:

Powerball tickets remain available for purchase at authorized Washington’s Lottery retail locations throughout the state. Players can find nearby retailers on the Washington’s Lottery website.
Drawings take place at 7:59 p.m. Pacific time every Monday, Wednesday and Saturday. Ticket sales end at 6:45 p.m. PT on the day of a drawing and resume at 6:46 p.m. the same day.
Players may add optional features for $1 each: Power Play, which multiplies non-jackpot prizes according to a randomly selected multiplier drawn each night, and Double Play, which enters the ticket into a second-chance drawing held at 8:30 p.m. with a top prize of up to $10 million.
