A SantaCon is a group holiday party where costumed guests move through bars. It is commonly traced back to San Francisco in 1994. A listing for Mesa would need to be added before there is anything to attend. Dates announced so far elsewhere are all in December.

The theme is Santa and the holidays, so a red outfit with a Santa hat is the easy starting point. December can feel mild or warm in Arizona, so breathable fabrics beat heavy fur-trimmed suits. Comfortable shoes matter because you will be walking between bars. Test the outfit at home so you know it stays put.

Expect to be 21 or older. The 21-and-over drinking law applies in Mesa just as it does nationwide. Individual bars can set stricter entry rules than the law requires. Name a sober driver or schedule a rideshare in advance. Do not lend your ID to anyone, since it will not work for them.
