Lottery participants across the state of Maryland have checked their tickets following the conclusion of the Tuesday, September 15, 2026 drawings. The state lottery agency oversees an extensive catalog of daily and multi-state games, giving players multiple opportunities throughout the day and evening to compete for cash payouts ranging from small amounts to multi-million-dollar jackpots.
The multi-state Mega Millions drawing served as the headline event of the evening. The winning numbers selected for the September 15 drawing were 27, 36, 43, 57, and 58, with a Mega Ball number of 16. Ticket holders are encouraged to verify their combinations against the official roster to confirm whether they matched any of the winning tiers.
Daily numbers games also saw full slates of action across midday and evening segments. For the popular Pick 3 contest, the midday drawing generated the three-digit winning sequence of 9-8-5. Later in the evening, the Pick 3 drawing concluded with the winning combination of 5-0-4.
Players participating in the Pick 4 game followed a similar daily schedule. The midday winning numbers were confirmed as 3-3-5-5, presenting a double-pair sequence for ticket holders. During the subsequent evening Pick 4 drawing, the resulting numbers were drawn in the order of 7-4-3-9.
The Maryland Lottery also conducted its five-digit daily game drawings. In the Pick 5 midday session, the winning sequence drawn was 6-6-9-7-6. The evening Pick 5 drawing produced a distinct numerical combination, yielding the numbers 8-2-5-0-0.
For players tracking the frequent single-number Cash Pop drawings, four separate winning outcomes were recorded across the day. The 9:00 a.m. session produced the number 10, followed by the 1:00 p.m. drawing which yielded 06. The 6:00 p.m. drawing matched the earlier result by drawing 06 once again, and the final 11:00 p.m. drawing wrapped up the day with number 13.
In the state’s dedicated Bonus Match 5 game, the five primary winning numbers selected were 13, 19, 24, 29, and 34, accompanied by the Bonus Ball number 09. Meanwhile, players engaged in the continuous Keno game saw drawings taking place every four minutes around the clock, with winning entries regularly updated across the lottery’s monitoring network.
Following the confirmation of all winning entries, state lottery officials outlined the standard procedures required for winners to validate and collect their monetary rewards. Winning tickets worth $600 or less may be redeemed immediately at any authorized Maryland Lottery retail location across the state.
For payouts exceeding $600, participants must navigate a more formal claiming process, which can be accomplished either through the postal service or in person. Those claiming by mail are required to sign the back of their winning ticket, fill out an official claim form, and include clear photocopies of both a valid government-issued identification card and an official document verifying their Social Security number or Federal Tax Identification number.
All mail-in submissions must be directed to the Maryland Lottery Customer Resource Center, located at 1800 Washington Boulevard, Suite 330, in Baltimore, MD 21230. Claimants are advised to ensure all paperwork is fully complete to prevent any delays in payout processing.
In-person claims for prizes above $600 can be processed at the central Maryland Lottery headquarters, situated at 1800 Washington Boulevard in Baltimore. Visits to headquarters are conducted strictly by appointment only, running Monday through Friday between 8:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. This central office is fully equipped to handle redemptions of any size, and it is the mandatory venue for claiming any prize amounts exceeding $5,000.
In addition to headquarters, select gaming facilities and Expanded Cashing Authority Program venues are authorized to redeem winning tickets valued up to $25,000. However, state regulations mandate that individuals must be at least 21 years old to enter casino premises, and casino cashiers are prohibited from cashing prizes over $600 for resident and non-resident aliens whose taxpayer identification numbers begin with the digit 9.
Six regional casino establishments across Maryland participate in this expanded redemption initiative. These venues include the Horseshoe Casino at 1525 Russell Street in Baltimore, the MGM National Harbor at 101 MGM National Avenue in Oxon Hill, and Live! Casino at 7002 Arundel Mills Circle in Hanover. On the Eastern Shore and in western regions, players can visit Ocean Downs Casino at 10218 Racetrack Road in Berlin, Hollywood Casino at 1201 Chesapeake Overlook Parkway in Perryville, and Rocky Gap Casino at 16701 Lakeview Road NE in Flintstone.
To assist participants with future planning, the lottery maintains a strict weekly schedule of drawings. Multi-state Powerball drawings, along with Powerball Double Play, take place at 11:00 p.m. Eastern Time every Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday, while Mega Millions drawings are scheduled for 11:00 p.m. on Tuesdays and Fridays.

Evening sessions for the Pick games and Bonus Match 5 are held at 7:56 p.m. from Monday through Saturday and at 8:10 p.m. on Sundays.
