We have had a slow build, but there are now multiple jackpots over $20 million as we head into this June weekend. Powerball and Mega Millions have been slowly increasing, with a combined jackpot total of almost $600 million now.

Meanwhile, other jackpots are creeping higher and higher, approaching record-breaking amounts. We are taking a look at the five biggest jackpots up for grabs this weekend and an honorable mention for a record-breaking jackpot run in Massachusetts, so check them out below!

1 - Mega Millions - $368 million

Mega Millions tops the list, with the current jackpot at $368 million for the drawing on Friday, June 5. The last Mega Millions jackpot win came on St. Patrick’s Day, March 17, which was for $60 million. That means this current jackpot run has been going on for 22 draws.

2 - Powerball - $212 million

Powerball has been trying to catch up to Mega Millions, but is still trailing for now. The current jackpot is at $212 million for the drawing on Saturday, June 6.

The last Powerball jackpot win came on May 2, 2026, when one ticket matched all the numbers to win the $20 million jackpot. We have seen 14 draws without a winner, so will that streak come to an end this weekend?

3 - Lotto America - $28.58 million

Another multi-state draw game makes the list. This time, it's Lottow America. This jackpot has climbed to $28.58 million, the third-largest jackpot in the game's history, for the drawing on Saturday, June 6.

The last jackpot win for Lotto America players came on August 6, 2025. We are approaching a year without a jackpot winner! That has happened in this game before, especially during those long jackpot runs that reach the game's highest jackpot, $40.03 million.

4 - SuperLotto Plus in California - $26 million

Now to the states, as in-state draw games finish out the Top 5 jackpots this week. In fourth place is SuperLotto Plus in California, which currently sits at $26 million for the Saturday, June 6 drawing.

This jackpot has been growing since April 1, so it has been 19 drawings without a jackpot winner. You have to be in California to play this game.

5 - Hoosier Lotto in Indiana - $24.4 million

The Hoosier Lotto from the Indiana Lottery comes in at fifth with a $24.4 million jackpot available for the Saturday, June 6, drawing.

The last Hoosier Lotto jackpot win came way back on August 16, 2025, when one player matched all the winning numbers drawn that night to win the $9.9 million. We have been climbing and climbing ever since.

Honorable mention: Megabucks for Massachusetts Lottery - $19.65 million

Yes, the Megabucks jackpot hasn't passed the $20 million mark, but it still deserves to make the honorable mention list. Why? This is the third-largest jackpot in the draw game's history.

One thing to note is that if one person wins the jackpot, the $19.65 million jackpot would be the most won by a single ticket. The top two prize amounts for this in-state draw game were split by multiple winners.

Enjoy playing the lottery, and please remember to play responsibly.
