ILLINOIS — A Powerball ticket sold in Illinois is worth $150,000 following Saturday night’s drawing, according to lottery officials.
The drawing was held on Saturday, Jan. 24, 2026, with winning numbers 2, 16, 35, 61, 63, and a Powerball of 5. The Power Play multiplier was 3x, which boosted the Illinois ticket’s prize to $150,000 after matching four of the five white balls and the Powerball.
The estimated jackpot for Saturday’s drawing was $20 million, with a cash value of approximately $9.0 million. No ticket matched all six numbers, so the jackpot was not claimed.
As a result, the Powerball jackpot will roll over to the next drawing on Monday, Jan. 26, 2026, when the estimated jackpot is expected to rise to $30 million, with a cash value of $13.6 million.
Lottery officials advise winners to sign the back of their ticket immediately and to contact the lottery for instructions on claiming their prize.
