Lottery players across the country had plenty to celebrate over the weekend, as several drawings delivered life-changing prizes just days before St. Patrick's Day.

From a $6.7 million jackpot hit in Arizona to a $10 million win in California. We even had a Mega Millions ticket boosted to $10 million thanks to a multiplier. The weekend turned into a lucky stretch for players hoping to strike gold. Here’s a look at the biggest lottery wins from the weekend.

Their own pot of gold

It was a big winning weekend for one lucky Arizona Lottery player. The lucky player can now celebrate St. Patrick's Day with their very own pot of gold after winning a jackpot worth $6.7 million.

The winning ticket was sold at an Albertsons near 19th and Northern avenues in Phoenix for Saturday night's The Pick drawing. The ticket matched all the winning numbers for the March 14, 2026, drawing, which were 1, 13, 15, 19, 22, and 34.

The jackpot had climbed to $6.7 million, but now resets to an estimated $1 million after the big win. If you happen to be holding onto this winning ticket, you have 180 days from the date of the drawing to claim the prize.

Big weekend win in California

It was a big winning weekend throughout the country, also. In California, one lucky ticketholder matched all of the winning numbers for the SuperLotto Plus drawing on Saturday night to win the $10 million jackpot.

The winning numbers for that draw were 10, 15, 16, 21, and 33, and the Mega Ball was 6. The winning ticket was purchased at A & J Happy Liquor, located at 414 W. Lincoln Ave. in Orange.

If you are holding onto this winning ticket, you have 180 days from the date of the drawing to claim your prize.

Mega Millions winners

While there were no jackpot winners from the Mega Millions drawing on Friday night, there were a couple of big winners for the drawing. The estimated jackpot heading into the night was $50 million. With no winner, it has rolled over to $60 million for the next drawing.

Two lucky players matched all of the white ball numbers, but missed out on the Mega Ball. Those winning tickets were worth $1 million, but then it depends on the multiplier. As it turns out, a player in Pennsylvania matched all the winning white ball numbers to win a $1 million prize. They had a 2X multiplier, which means they have won $2 million.

The $10 million wins continue, as a player in Florida also matched all five of the winning white ball numbers to win the $1 million prize. However, they had a 10X multiplier, so their prize increased to $10 million, the biggest prize available at this prize level.

The winning white ball numbers for the Friday, March 13, 2026, drawing were 6, 19, 36, 40, and 55, with a Mega Ball of 9.

Enjoy playing the Arizona Lottery, and please remember to play responsibly.
