Lottery participants across Arizona are reviewing their tickets following the official release of winning numbers from multiple major drawings held on the evening of Wednesday, Sept. 9, 2026. The Arizona Lottery confirmed the official results for its broad slate of popular draw games, giving ticket holders statewide another opportunity to check their numbers for potential jackpot windfalls and secondary cash prizes.
Leading the lineup of Wednesday’s drawings was the national Powerball lottery, which drew widespread attention from players across the state. The winning white ball combination drawn was 09-40-42-55-65, paired with the red Powerball number 23. Furthermore, the drawing established a Power Play multiplier of 2, allowing eligible non-jackpot tier winners who purchased the add-on feature to double their baseline prize amounts.
Alongside the national drawing, Arizona’s flagship state-level jackpot contest, The Pick, also finalized its winning numbers on Wednesday night. The winning six-number sequence drawn for The Pick was 02-08-09-18-20-40. The Pick serves as the primary home-state draw game for local players seeking large jackpot payouts within Arizona's dedicated gaming system.
Additional state-run lottery drawings produced winning combinations on Sept. 9 across various play styles. The Fantasy 5 drawing yielded the winning numbers 01-02-05-20-39, while the Triple Twist game produced a winning combination of 02-03-04-05-26-38. Concurrently, the Pick 3 Evening drawing concluded with the three-digit winning sequence of 7-2-9.
Players participating in the multi-state Powerball game must remain aware of the operational framework and scheduling rules that govern each drawing. Powerball drawings are regularly conducted three nights per week on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Saturdays, taking place precisely at 7:59 p.m. Arizona time. In the state of Arizona, purchasing a single Powerball ticket costs a standard fee of $2 per play.
The fundamental gameplay of Powerball requires participants to choose a total of six numbers across two separate pools. Bettors must select five numbers ranging from 1 to 69 for the white balls, along with a single number from 1 to 26 representing the red Powerball. Players can manually select their numbers on a paper play slip or opt for the lottery terminal to randomly generate their picks.
Winning outcomes in Powerball are distributed across nine distinct prize tiers based on the accuracy of matched numbers. The highest reward, the Powerball Grand Prize jackpot, is awarded exclusively to tickets that match all five white balls in addition to the red Powerball. Matching all five white balls without the red Powerball awards the game’s standard second-tier payout of $1 million.
Players who match several numbers but miss the grand jackpot can still secure significant secondary winnings through intermediate prize tiers. Correctly picking four white balls alongside the red Powerball delivers a $50,000 cash prize. Additionally, ticket holders matching either four white balls alone or three white balls combined with the red Powerball receive a fixed payout of $100.
Lower-tier winning combinations provide multiple avenues for players to recover their entry costs and secure modest winnings. A payout of $7 is awarded to participants who successfully match three white balls, as well as those who match two white balls together with the red Powerball. The baseline prize level awards $4 to players matching one white ball plus the red Powerball, or matching solely the red Powerball.
Ticket holders also have the opportunity to multiply their non-jackpot earnings through the Power Play feature, available for an additional cost of $1 per play. Depending on the draw, the Power Play multiplier can increase eligible winnings by two, three, four, five, or ten times. The maximum 10-times multiplier becomes active in drawings where the advertised jackpot is valued at $150 million or less.
When it comes to redeeming winning tickets, the Arizona Lottery enforces specific procedures determined by the total payout amount. All authorized Arizona Lottery retail locations are required to redeem winning tickets valued up to $100. In addition, retail locations have the option to redeem prizes valued up to $599 at their own discretion.
Prizes exceeding $599 cannot be processed at standard retail counters and require submission through official Arizona Lottery channels, either by mail or in person. To file a claim by mail, winners must submit a completed winner claim form, the original winning ticket, and a copy of a government-issued photo identification to P.O. Box 2913, Phoenix, AZ 85062.
Those seeking to collect prizes in person have access to two full-service Arizona Lottery regional offices capable of cashing prizes of any amount. The Phoenix Arizona Lottery Office is located at 4740 E. University Drive, Phoenix, AZ 85034 (480-921-4400), and the Tucson Arizona Lottery Office is situated at 2955 E.
