DTPHX Lotería

Celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month By Playing DTPHX Lotería

Explore new places, discover local businesses, and appreciate some cool, Mexican-inspired art.

Play the Game: October 6 – October 15, 2023

Kickoff Event: Friday, October 6 from 6-8 p.m. at Xico, Inc. (829 N 1st Ave).

How To Play

Part art walk, part game, part urban adventure, participating in DTPHX Lotería is an easy and fun activity for the whole family. Just pick up a “tabla” (Bingo-like playing card) at any participating downtown business, or from a DTPHX Ambassador.

Each tabla will feature 16 Downtown businesses depicted Lotería style — a colorfully-illustrated card symbolizing the location. Once you find the card that corresponds with the business (the artist-designed poster will be visible from the exterior), go inside and get your DTPHX sticker from an employee.

How To Win

Players who get four across, in a row, diagonal, or a two-by-two box (4 images) anywhere on the tabla get a commemorative enamel pin.

⁠Fill the entire card to get an exclusive Downtown Phoenix-themed Lotería game to take home!

How to claim your prize:

Stop by the Downtown Phoenix Information Center at CityScape Phoenix anytime between Monday – Friday, 9 a.m. to 6 p.m., from Oct. 9-23, located at 1 E. Washington St., Ste. 230. Available while supplies last.
