Meow Wolf, the arts and entertainment company that bends minds with its immersive experiences, teams up with Illegal Pete’s, the beloved Colorado burrito chain. This collaboration will bring art and flavor together for burrito lovers across Colorado and beyond with the introduction of the Portilla – (Por-TEE-yah) – noun – [little portal], a trippy, tie-dyed tortilla created with Colorado Tortilla Co.

Starting August 1st, customers at all Illegal Pete’s locations can enjoy their favorite burritos, tacos, and quesadillas wrapped in eye-catching, all-natural tie-dye tortillas. This limited-time offering promises a burst of visual delight, allowing fans to give their burritos the Meow Wolf treatment.

“We’re psyched for this collaboration because it was a true creative partnership where we made something together just for fun,” says Pete Turner, Founder of Illegal Pete’s. “We can’t wait for our customers to experience the Portilla and the entire campaign all month long.”

“We love partnering with Illegal Pete’s, a company that represents Colorado and supports the arts here,” says Shannon Slack, Marketing Producer at Meow Wolf. “Meow Wolf and Illegal Pete’s share similar values in our commitment to community and creativity. This creative partnership solidifies our mutual dedication to sparking joy and having some fun.”
To celebrate this collaboration, Meow Wolf and Illegal Pete’s co-created a delightfully absurd video ad titled “Memoritos.” The ad, reminiscent of an Illegal Pete’s commercial warped by the creative minds at Meow Wolf, will play in-store throughout the partnership. They unveiled it at a special screening at Meow Wolf’s cocktail lounge, Sips (with a Z), on July 24.

In addition to the tie-dyed tortillas and the captivating video spot, burrito lovers and Meow Wolf fans can look forward to exclusive merchandise: trippy limited-edition t-shirts and stickers that depict a reality blending Illegal Pete’s and Meow Wolf.

Don’t miss out on this unique culinary and artistic experience! Head to your nearest Illegal Pete’s location from August 1st to August 31st to get your burrito “Meow Wolfed” and enjoy the pure joy of this singularly psychedelic collaboration. “Memoritos” will release August 1st to mark the occasion. You can check it out on the Illegal Pete’s or Meow Wolf website.
