When is the next Powerball drawing? Jackpot jumps again after no winner
The Powerball jackpot has risen to $410 million ahead of the Saturday drawing with an estimated $184.9 million lump-sum payment after taxes, according to the lottery.
There have been four Powerball jackpot winners in 2025, most recently on May 31, when a person in California won the $204.5 million prize.
A lucky player in Oregon had the first jackpot-winning Powerball ticket of 2025, netting $328.5 million on Jan. 18. A second jackpot winner matched all six Powerball numbers on March 29, winning $527 million. A third jackpot winner from Kentucky won the $167.3 million prize on April 26.
The next drawing will happen on 11 p.m. ET Saturday. Here's what you need to know ahead of the next Powerball drawing.
When is the next Powerball drawing?
The next drawing will take place on Saturday, August 2, just after 11 p.m. ET.
How to play the Powerball
To play the Powerball, you have to buy a ticket for $2. You can do this at a variety of locations, including your local convenience store, gas station, or even grocery store. In some states, Powerball tickets can be bought online.
Once you have your ticket, you need to pick six numbers. Five of them will be white balls with numbers from 1 to 69. The red Powerball ranges from 1 to 26. People can also add a 'Power Play' for $1, which increases the winning for all non-jackpot prizes.
The 'Power Play' multiplier can multiply winnings by: 2X, 3X, 4X, 5X, or 10X.
If you are feeling unlucky or want the computer to do the work for you, the 'Quick Pick' option is available, where computer-generated numbers will be printed on a Powerball ticket. To win the jackpot, players must match all five white balls in any order and the red Powerball.
Powerball drawings are held on Monday, Wednesday and Saturday nights. If no one wins the jackpot, the cash prize will continue to tick up.

Gannett Co Inc (GCI) Q2 2025 Earnings Call Highlights: Strategic Moves and Financial Gains Amid ...
Release Date: July 31, 2025 For the complete transcript of the earnings call, please refer to the full earnings call transcript. Positive Points Gannett Co Inc (NYSE:GCI) reported sequential improvement in key financial metrics, including a 27% increase in total adjusted EBITDA and a 73% growth in free cash flow. The company successfully repaid $23.4 million of debt in Q2, contributing to a total of nearly $100 million repaid in the first half of the year. Digital advertising revenues grew 4% year over year, reversing a slight decline in the first quarter. Gannett Co Inc (NYSE:GCI) announced a strategic AI content licensing agreement with Perplexity, expected to drive revenue growth. The company is implementing a $100 million cost reduction program, anticipated to enhance EBITDA growth and expand margins in 2025 and 2026. Negative Points Total revenues decreased by 8.6% year over year, with a 6.4% decline on a same-store basis. Digital-only subscription revenues faced challenges, with a need for several quarters to return to year-over-year growth. The company is still experiencing the impact of rebuilding its subscriber base and tightening offers, affecting digital subscription revenue. Print and commercial revenues continue to decline, although efforts are being made to manage these declines efficiently. The pace of revenue improvement is slower than expected, leading to a revision of the full-year outlook for digital revenue growth. Q & A Highlights Warning! GuruFocus has detected 4 Warning Signs with GCI. Q: When do you think your revenues will turn flat? A: Mike Reed, CEO: We expect our revenues to turn flat in the early stages of 2026. We are optimistic due to improvements in print trends, a strong digital advertising marketplace, and new initiatives like our AI licensing deal and Address USA partnership. These factors, along with a $100 million cost reduction program, position us for meaningful EBITDA and free cash flow growth in the back half of this year and into 2026. Q: Can you provide more details around the cost reduction program? A: Trisha Gosser, CFO: The cost program focuses on automation, outsourcing, and eliminating duplication to add variability to our cost structure. This includes shuttering two large print facilities and moving some products to mail delivery. Payroll will be a component, but we are leveraging AI to improve processes and workflows, allowing us to stay committed to our product and content. Q: What has been your experience with AI search engines affecting traffic to content sites? A: Kristen Roberts, President of Gannett Media: Despite concerns, our digital audience continues to grow, with over 1 billion page views per month. We are proactively diversifying traffic sources and using technology to block unauthorized AI scraping. Our partnership with Perplexity exemplifies a strategic approach to AI, ensuring compensation and attribution for our content. Q: Are there any updates on the tech antitrust case with Google? A: Mike Reed, CEO: The ad tech cases are progressing positively. The DOJ's favorable ruling in April has led to proposed remedies, with a hearing scheduled for September. Our case is expected to be scheduled for trial in 2026. We remain confident in our position and see positive movement in the broader developments. Q: When do you expect to see year-over-year growth for digital subscriber revenue? A: Kristen Roberts, President of Gannett Media: We are focusing on sustainable and profitable subscriber acquisition, moving away from low introductory offers. Positive signs include sequential and year-over-year growth in digital-only ARPU. We expect sequential growth in the third and fourth quarters and overall growth next year.
