About
Boston, MA
SANTACON

Boston SantaCon is a ticketed, 21+ holiday bar crawl. You check in, collect an event wristband, then visit participating bars in your Santa gear at a pace you set, picking up deals along the way. Faneuil Hall sits in Downtown Boston, Fenway Park is near Kenmore Square, and the MBTA subway can connect parts of the city. Your digital map lays out the stops, so you can leave the planning to it. Look to your event information for the check-in venue, the bars on the route and the finished schedule.

THE EVENT DETAILS

Everything important, without the wall of text.

One wristband

One wristband at check-in covers every participating Boston bar on the crawl.

Event route

The digital map shows the participating bars, so the order is your call.

Holiday drink specials

Deals offered by participating bars. Drinks are still bought one at a time.

Christmas party energy

Santa gear goes over a real winter coat in Boston, so size up the layers.

PARTICIPATING VENUES

Boston’s participating bars are confirmed in your event information and shown on the digital map. Lineups can change, and each bar sets its own specials. The map, not the neighborhood name, decides where you actually go.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

The essentials for planning your Boston, MA SantaCon

What is Boston SantaCon?

Think of it as a ticketed holiday crawl, with guests in Santa suits, elf outfits or reindeer gear visiting participating Boston bars on one wristband. No ticket, no entry.

When does Boston SantaCon start?

Times for the start and finish are printed in the event details block at the top of this page. Your ticket information adds the check-in window that applies to you.

Where do I check in?

Go to the check-in venue named in your ticket and event information before visiting any bar. That is the only place wristbands and the digital map are given out.

What is included with a ticket?

Count on a wristband, entry to participating bars, those bars' own deals and a digital map. Each drink is still a separate purchase, never an automatic freebie.

How old do I need to be?

Carry a valid government-issued photo ID and be 21 or older. Bars on the route may ask for the physical card on top of your wristband.

Should I take the T?

Consider the T. The Red, Orange, Blue and Green lines all cross downtown, and Kenmore sits on the Green Line. Check the current schedule for your ride home, or line up a rideshare.

How cold does Boston get for a crawl?

Boston winters are cold and stormy, so check the forecast before you leave. Wear your costume over layers, with boots you can walk in and gloves.

Do I need to visit every bar?

No. Visit as many or as few participating bars as you like during event hours. The digital map shows the lineup and you choose the order.
