The anticipated jackpot for the Powerball drawing on Saturday, October 7, 2023, is $1.4 billion.

That’s a high number, the third-largest in Powerball history, but due to rising ticket sales, it might pass by the time the drawing is held and take second place. The most recent Powerball jackpot winner purchased a $1.08 billion ticket in California on July 19.
