NEW! for 2023 – We have reserved select nights so that you can Wind Down and enjoy Allerton overnight! While lodging is available throughout the year based on availability, now you can plan ahead and book a room to get away for a weekend night – or two!
All dates feature a discounted rate of $130/night (plus tax), and two drink tokens per room, per night. Wind Down Weekends are often paired with additional Allerton events (separate ticket purchase may be required), Greenhouse Café specials, or suggested activities in the surrounding community.
