The Dome

(NOTE: The dome is available to reserve October through March only)

Whether you’re hosting a family game night, planning a secluded night out with your sweetheart, or looking for a creative workspace, our Dome is the perfect way to experience Allerton!

The Dome is located on the Wetland Boardwalk in the Formal Garden area of the Park, overlooking the Reflecting Pond and historic Allerton Mansion. Outfitted with four comfy chairs, the Dome offers protection from the elements so you can enjoy the outdoors no matter the weather!

Tuesday – Saturday – $75 (for 3 hours)
6-9pm
(Available October through March)

Ask our sales team about adding beer, wine, or champagne to your reservation! You’re also welcome to pack a basket of your own food and non-alcoholic* beverages to enjoy.

The Dome will be cleaned and sanitized before and after each guests. 

For questions about additional times or to make a reservation, call 217-333-3287.

PLEASE NOTE:
The Wetland Boardwalk is closed to the public during the winter season for Dome reservations.
Dress warmly! The Dome has a space heater and blankets, but is not totally temperature-controlled.
*In compliance with University of Illinois policy, no outside alcohol is permitted. Alcoholic beverages are available for purchase through Allerton’s Sales Team.

Must be 21 or older to reserve. You may be asked to put a damage deposit down at check-in.
