Join us at The Morton Arboretum on Friday, April 24, or Saturday, April 25, 2026, for an evening of Lotería, a traditional Mexican game of chance similar to bingo.
Lotería is played with a deck of illustrated cards depicting familiar objects and symbols. This special edition of Lotería features custom, Arboretum-themed cards illustrated by artist Jaz Rodriguez.
Lotería Nights take place in the Arboretum’s Firefly Pavilion, a sustainably built, open-air event venue with a patio overlooking scenic gardens and tree collections.
Highlights
A bilingual emcee will lead the games in English and Spanish.
Lotería winners will receive Arboretum-themed prizes and prizes donated by local artisans.
A local vendor and a full-service bar in the pavilion will offer authentic food and drinks to purchase during the event.
Browse handmade goods from a local artisan between Lotería rounds.
