Location
Ann Arbor SantaCon is a ticketed holiday bar crawl for people who like a costume and a cold-weather plan. You check in, pick up a wristband and a digital map, then visit participating bars in Santa hats, elf outfits or an overdone sweater. Main Street, Kerrytown and State Street sit side by side near the University of Michigan campus. Snow is common in a Michigan winter, so the map and a pair of boots matter more than the costume. Your check-in venue, the participating bar lineup and the schedule are confirmed in the event information that comes with your ticket.
Everything important, without the wall of text.
The essentials that make this SantaCon crawl easy to join and fun to explore.
Ann Arbor’s participating bars are confirmed in your event information and shown on the digital map, so treat the map as the final word. Lineups can change, and each bar sets its own specials. The map decides your actual route, so follow it through the night.
From booking your pass to enjoying the final stop.
Select a ticket sized for your group and pay online. Every sale is final, so settle the headcount before you click.
Carry valid government-issued photo ID to the confirmed check-in venue, where the wristband and digital map are waiting for you.
Move between participating bars, ask about the SantaCon deals and keep the wristband on your wrist.
Head home when you are done. Plans for the end of the event, if any, will be in your event information.
The essentials for planning your Ann Arbor SantaCon
Picture a ticketed pub-to-pub crawl in Santa gear, using one wristband at participating Ann Arbor bars. Buy your ticket ahead of time, because walking up without one will not get you in.
Look in your ticket email and event information for the confirmed check-in venue, and head there before any bar. That is where the wristband and map get handed out.
Show up 21 or older and carry a valid government-issued photo ID. Bars may look at it again, and a phone screenshot is risky, so bring the physical card.
Wear boots with grip, because winter sidewalks can be icy, and give yourself extra time to get between bars. Check each stop on your digital map before you head out.
Wear thermals and a warm coat under or over your costume, plus waterproof boots and gloves. Snow is common in Michigan winters, and a Santa suit alone will not cut it.
Plan your ride before the night starts. Pick a designated driver or book a rideshare instead of driving between bars, and agree on a meeting point if your group splits up.
No. Visit participating bars at your own pace within event hours, and skip any you do not fancy. The map simply shows what is on offer.
Fill out the group booking form lower on the page if your party reaches 20 or more. Discounts, VIP perks, reserved check-in and private party packages are possible for groups that size.
Pick your pass and get ready to join the party.
