Terms of Service

Effective date November 3, 2026

Welcome to TheSantaCon.com. These Terms of Service (the “Terms”) govern your access to and use of https://thesantacon.com/ (the “Service”), which is operated by TheSantaCon.com (“us”, “we”, or “our”). By accessing or using the Service, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree with any part of them, please do not use the Service.

These Terms should be read together with our Privacy Policy, which explains how we collect, use, and disclose personal data. Terms used but not defined here have the same meanings as in the Privacy Policy.

Use of the Service

The Service provides information about SantaCon holiday bar crawl events in cities across the United States, including event dates, times, locations, and ticketing details. You agree to use the Service only for lawful purposes and in accordance with these Terms. You agree not to:

  • Use the Service in any way that violates applicable local, state, national, or international law or regulation.
  • Attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Service, its servers, or any connected systems.
  • Interfere with or disrupt the Service, including by introducing viruses, malware, or other harmful code.
  • Use automated tools to scrape, copy, or collect content from the Service without our prior written permission.
  • Submit false, misleading, or fraudulent information through any form on the Service.

Eligibility and Age Requirements

Our Service does not address anyone under the age of 18, and you must be at least 18 years old to use it. Events listed on the Service may require attendees to be 21 years of age or older, and valid government issued photo identification may be required at check-in. By using the Service or purchasing a ticket, you confirm that you meet the age requirements for the event you wish to attend.

Events, Tickets, and Purchases

Event listings, dates, times, participating venues, and included items are provided for informational purposes and may change. Event details shown on a city or event page are the most current information we have, and we may update them at any time. Tickets may be required to take part in an event. When you purchase a ticket you agree to provide accurate purchase information and to pay all applicable charges. Pricing, what is included with a ticket, and any refund or transfer terms are described at the time of purchase, and those terms apply to your order. Tickets may not be resold for more than their original price. We reserve the right to cancel, reschedule, or modify any event because of weather, venue availability, safety concerns, legal requirements, or other circumstances outside our control.

Responsible Participation

Events are social gatherings held at bars and other licensed venues. You are solely responsible for your own conduct and for drinking responsibly. By attending an event you agree to:

  • Follow all venue rules, staff instructions, and applicable laws, including alcohol laws.
  • Treat other guests, venue staff, and the public with respect.
  • Arrange safe transportation and never drive after drinking.
  • Accept that venues and organizers may refuse entry or remove anyone who appears intoxicated, behaves unsafely, or violates these Terms, without a refund.

User Submissions and Communications

If you submit information to us, for example through a contact form, a venue signup form, or a request to list your SantaCon, you confirm that the information is accurate and that you have the right to share it. You grant us a non-exclusive, royalty-free license to use that information to operate, promote, and improve the Service. We will handle personal data you provide in accordance with our Privacy Policy.

Intellectual Property

The Service and its original content, features, graphics, logos, and design are owned by TheSantaCon.com or its licensors and are protected by copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws. You may view and share links to the Service for personal, non-commercial use. You may not copy, modify, distribute, or create derivative works from any part of the Service without our written permission.

The Service may contain links to third party websites or services that we do not own or control, including ticketing providers, venues, and analytics services. We have no control over and assume no responsibility for the content, privacy policies, or practices of any third party sites or services. We strongly advise you to review the terms and privacy policy of every site you visit.

Cookies and Analytics

We use cookies and similar technologies, and we may use third party analytics providers such as Google Analytics, to operate and improve the Service. Details about the data we collect and your choices are explained in our Privacy Policy.

Disclaimer of Warranties

The Service is provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis. We make no warranties, express or implied, about the accuracy, reliability, or availability of the Service or its content, or that the Service will be uninterrupted or free of errors. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we disclaim all warranties, including implied warranties of merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose.

Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, TheSantaCon.com, its owners, employees, partners, and affiliates will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or any loss of profits, data, or goodwill, arising from your use of or inability to use the Service or from your attendance at any event. Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot be excluded under applicable law. Participating venues and independent third parties are responsible for their own premises, services, and conduct.

Indemnification

You agree to defend and indemnify TheSantaCon.com and its owners, employees, and affiliates from any claims, damages, losses, and expenses, including reasonable legal fees, arising from your violation of these Terms, your misuse of the Service, or your conduct at any event.

Termination

We may suspend or terminate your access to the Service at any time, without prior notice, if we believe you have violated these Terms or if we need to do so to protect the Service or other users. Provisions that by their nature should survive termination, including intellectual property, disclaimers, limitation of liability, and indemnification, will remain in effect.

Governing Law

These Terms are governed by and interpreted under the laws of the United States and the state in which TheSantaCon.com is based, without regard to conflict of law principles. Any dispute arising from these Terms or the Service will be handled in the courts located in that state.

Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. We will post the updated Terms on this page and update the effective date at the top. Where a change is significant, we will let you know by email or through a prominent notice on the Service before the change takes effect. Your continued use of the Service after changes are posted means you accept the updated Terms.
