A Powerball® Millionaire Made in Victory Lane
Next year it could be you!
Stay tuned for the list of lotteries participating in the 2024 NASCAR Powerball Playoff
What is the NASCAR Powerball Playoff?
The NASCAR Powerball Playoff™ is a national Powerball® promotion that culminates with four lottery players winning a VIP trip for two to NASCAR Championship Weekend™ at Phoenix Raceway and entry into a special drawing to win the $1 million grand prize!
The $1 million drawing will be broadcast live prior to the start of the 2024 NASCAR Cup Series Championship Race™ on NBC.
How do I enter?
Entry into the national Powerball® promotion begins at the state level.
Beginning in 2024, participating lotteries will hold second-chance drawings and contents, of their choosing, to form a national pool of entrants. Entry periods and requirements will vary by lottery jurisdiction.
At the end of the 2024 NASCAR® regular season, 16 semi-finalists will be randomly drawn from the national pool to advance to the Playoff Drawings.
How do the Playoff Drawings work?
The Playoff Drawings are a series of elimination drawings that mirror the elimination rounds of the NASCAR Playoffs.
In the NASCAR Playoffs, the top 16 drivers at the end of the regular season are eligible to compete for the championship title. After each playoff round, the bottom four drivers are eliminated until the field of eligible drivers decreases from 16 to 12 to 8 to 4. The final four drivers, known as the Championship 4, are the elite group competing for the championship title during the final race of the season at Phoenix Raceway.
Likewise, the NASCAR Powerball Playoff™ starts with 16 national semi-finalists. When NASCAR reduces its playoff field of drivers, Powerball will reduce its playoff field of semi-finalists eligible to win the $1 million grand prize. Through a series of elimination drawings, the field of semi-finalists will be reduced from 16 to 12 to 8 to 4 – with the remaining four finalists winning a VIP trip for two to NASCAR Championship Weekend™ at Phoenix Raceway and entry into the $1 million drawing in Victory Lane.
Cash prizes were awarded to all 16 semi-finalists based on their elimination position, ranging from $2,500 to the $1 million grand prize.
