The Arizona Lottery has officially published the winning numbers for its slate of drawings held on Wednesday, Sept. 9, 2026. Players across the Grand Canyon State participated in multiple scheduled drawings throughout the evening, checking their tickets against the latest outcomes for both national jackpot games and local state-run lottery contests.
Leading the Wednesday night lineup was the multi-state Powerball drawing, which produced the winning white ball combination of 09, 40, 42, 55, and 65. The red Powerball number drawn for the evening was 23, and the Power Play multiplier for the drawing was selected as 2.
In addition to Powerball, state-specific drawings yielded new winning combinations for local players. The Pick, Arizona’s long-running in-state jackpot game, produced the winning numbers 02, 08, 09, 18, 20, and 40. Meanwhile, the daily Fantasy 5 drawing generated the winning selection of 01, 02, 05, 20, and 39.
The Arizona Lottery also conducted drawings for its other popular daily and evening games. The Pick 3 Evening draw recorded the winning digit sequence of 7, 2, and 9. Additionally, the Triple Twist game results concluded with the winning series 02, 03, 04, 05, 26, and 38 for the Wednesday drawing cycle.
For players tracking drawing routines, Powerball numbers are drawn three times weekly on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Saturdays. The official drawings take place promptly at 7:59 p.m. Arizona time, establishing a consistent schedule for ticket holders who follow each event as the results are certified.
Entering the Powerball drawing in Arizona requires an entry fee of $2 per game. Participants can purchase tickets at licensed lottery retailers across the state, where they have the option to manually fill out a play slip with chosen numbers or request a Quick Pick to allow the terminal to randomly generate the selection.
The basic gameplay mechanics of Powerball involve choosing two distinct sets of numbers. Players select five different numbers from a pool ranging from 1 to 69 representing the white balls, accompanied by a single number from a secondary pool ranging from 1 to 26 representing the red Powerball.
The Powerball game features nine distinct prize tiers. Matching all five white balls in conjunction with the red Powerball secures the Grand Prize jackpot. Matching all five white balls without the red Powerball awards a fixed second-tier prize of $1 million, while matching four white balls alongside the red Powerball yields a $50,000 payout.
Mid-tier and lower-tier payouts provide additional opportunities for players to win smaller cash prizes. Matching four white balls alone, or matching three white balls plus the red Powerball, results in a $100 payout. Matching three white balls or matching two white balls with the red Powerball awards $7. The lowest prize tier awards $4, which is won by matching either one white ball plus the red Powerball or solely matching the red Powerball.
Players also have the opportunity to enhance non-jackpot winnings by adding the optional Power Play feature for an extra $1 per play. This option applies a multiplier of two, three, four, five, or ten times to standard lower-tier prizes. The maximum 10X multiplier is eligible to appear only during drawing cycles where the advertised jackpot is $150 million or less.
When it comes to redeeming winning tickets, the Arizona Lottery enforces specific procedures based on the total prize amount. All authorized lottery retailers are required to redeem winning tickets worth up to $100, and retailers have the discretion to cash prizes up to $599. Winning tickets with payouts exceeding $599 cannot be redeemed at regular retail counters and must be claimed directly through the lottery via mail or at an official regional office.
Claimants choosing to redeem prizes over $599 through the postal system must mail their original winning ticket, a completed winner claim form, and a valid copy of a government-issued identification card. All mail submissions must be addressed to the Arizona Lottery at P.O. Box 2913, Phoenix, AZ 85062.
For in-person redemption, ticket holders must sign the back of their physical ticket, complete a winner claim form, and present both documents along with a government-issued photo ID. The Arizona Lottery operates two primary headquarters offices capable of cashing prizes of any dollar value: the Phoenix office located at 4740 E.
