$800 Million Jackpot Up for Grabs in Tonight’s Powerball Drawing
$5,000 Welcome Bonus
No one matched all six numbers in Saturday’s Powerball drawing, giving players a shot at $800 million tonight. The cash option for the jackpot is $384.8 million.
If a player wins tonight’s jackpot, it would be the second Powerball jackpot won this year and the sixth largest Powerball jackpot ever won.
Tonight’s drawing will be the 36th drawing since the jackpot was last won Jan. 1 when one ticket purchased in Michigan won the $842.2 million jackpot. The winning ticket was purchased at the Food Castle of Grand Blanc, located at 3035 East Grand Blanc Road in Grand Blanc. The huge jackpot has yet to be claimed. The lucky winner should contact the Lottery’s Player Relations Division at 844-917-6325 to set up an appointment to claim their prize. Powerball tickets are valid for one year from the drawing date.
Since the Powerball jackpot run began Jan. 3, Michigan Lottery players have won more than $5.8 million in prizes, including two $1 million prizes.
Lottery retailers throughout the state are selling Powerball tickets until 9:45 p.m. tonight. Tickets also may be purchased online at MichiganLottery.com.

A “Power Play” option that multiplies non-jackpot prizes by up to 10 times to a maximum of $2 million may be added to any Powerball play for only $1. For an additional $1 per play, Double Play may be added to a Powerball ticket, giving players a second chance to win up to $10 million in the nightly Double Play drawing.
