Powerball drawings are held three times a week: every Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday night at 10:59 p.m. Eastern Time.

Regular draw schedule

  • Draw days: Monday, Wednesday, Saturday.
  • Draw time: 10:59 p.m. Eastern Time (ET) on each of those days.
  • Ticket sales cutoff: Each state lottery sets its own cutoff time, typically 1–2 hours before the draw time.

How to know the next draw

Given today’s date and time in UTC, the next Powerball draw will be the next Monday, Wednesday, or Saturday at 10:59 p.m. ET (which is 3:59 a.m. UTC the following day during Standard Time, and 2:59 a.m. UTC during Daylight Time). Exact conversion depends on whether the U.S. is on daylight saving at that time.

Where to watch or check results

  • Live stream and recorded drawings are available on the official Powerball site’s drawing page.
  • Local TV stations in many U.S. markets broadcast the drawing around 10:59 p.m. ET.
  • Official state lottery websites and the main Powerball site post winning numbers shortly after each draw.
