EL PASO, TEXAS (KFOX14/CBS4) — The City of El Paso is inviting the community to participate in Loteria Nights at Winterfest.

According to the city, Loteria Nights is a series of events held from 6 to 8 p.m. on Dec. 4, 11, and 18 at San Jacinto Plaza as part of this year’s WinterFest.

Attendees can enjoy the traditional Mexican game Lotería, often referred to as Mexican bingo, under the plaza’s historic lights.

According to the city, this year’s Loteria cards will feature iconic El Paso images.

The free event will also offer prizes, including ice-skating tickets, El Paso Zoo passes, and gift certificates from local organizations.

Additionally, various city departments will host activity booths throughout the plaza, as Loteria Nights is one of several holiday events taking place during WinterFest.
