17th Annual Shop the Blocks

The holiday season is quickly approaching and your favorite shopping event is back! Downtown Lincoln’s boutiques, book stores, art galleries, specialty shops, and stores are open late just for you. On November 21st, take your opportunity to get access to the VIP Passport to enjoy special discounts, giveaways, and more.

Pick up your VIP Shop the Blocks bag & passport at our check-in location at the Rococo Theatre (140 N 13th St) by showing your e-ticket on your phone. Shop from 4:30-9pm and then attend the after party at the Rococo.

There are so many prize opportunities! For every $20 you spend at a participating business, you will be entered to win 100s of dollars in gift cards. If you purchase a gold tier ticket, you can party at the Rococo, enter to win raffle prizes, and enjoy appetizers and a cash bar. If you want to enter to win the grand prize at one of our amazing downtown hotels, take a photo of yourself (or your group) in front of or inside all of the shops listed on your passport, and send that to shoplocal@downtownlincoln.org. Thank you to The Kindler Hotel and Boitano's Lounge for sponsoring this year's grand prize.
