The Powerball jackpot soared close to the $400 million threshold after Mercredi night’s drawing yielded no grand prize winner. With a prize pool initially set at $375 million, the jackpot continues to climb, drawing significant attention ahead of the upcoming draw.
Winning Numbers and Drawing Détails
The winning combination for the July 1, 2026 drawing featured the white balls 2, 6, 26, 39, and 68, accompanied by the red Powerball number 6. Players who participated with the Power Play option benefited from a 2x multiplier during this round.
For fans wishing to review the live event, the official drawing video from July 1 is available for viewing, providing a clear record of the winning numbers.
Despite the excitement, the jackpot remained unclaimed as no ticket matched all six numbers—five white balls and the Powerball. This marked the 26th consecutive drawing without a grand prize winner, allowing the jackpot to accumulate further.
Following this outcome, the jackpot is now projected to reach an estimated $396 million for the next drawing, with the corresponding cash option rising to approximately $180.2 million. These amounts are quoted before taxes.
The next opportunity to claim the growing prize will be on Samedi, July 4, when the updated jackpot will be available for hopeful participants nationwide.
