Event Time

Location

Duluth SantaCon is a ticketed Santa bar crawl. Wear the red suit, collect your wristband at check-in, and make your way through participating bars at whatever speed your group prefers, taking whatever deals the bars offer. Duluth climbs a steep hillside up from Lake Superior, and Duluth Transit Authority buses run from a downtown transportation center. The digital map marks the stops, which saves you from guessing at the route. Your event information, issued after confirmation, covers the check-in venue, the bar lineup and how the schedule works.

THE EVENT DETAILS

Everything important, without the wall of text.

One wristband

One band from check-in is what participating Duluth bars look for.

Event route

Your digital map shows the stops; the walking order stays with you.

Holiday drink specials

Specials come from participating bars, with every drink purchased as you go.

Christmas party energy

Holiday-season highs average in the mid 20s, so wear the costume over thermals.

WHAT YOU GET WITH YOUR TICKET

The essentials that make this SantaCon crawl easy to join and fun to explore.

Participating Bar Access

Wristband entry at participating Duluth bars on the crawl map.

Exclusive Drink Specials

Every bar writes its own offers, so drinks are never covered by default.

Event Wristband

Handed over at check-in, then worn until you finish.

Digital Crawl Map

Every stop in one place, with the route decided by you.

Festive Party Atmosphere

Santas, elves and reindeer warming up each room you enter.

Photo-Ready Moments

Group costumes against a lakeside winter backdrop photograph well.

PARTICIPATING VENUES

Participating Duluth bars are confirmed in your event information and plotted on the digital map. Lineups can change and each bar picks its own specials. Because the city runs up a steep hillside, check how far apart two stops are before you plan to walk between them.

SIMPLE STEPS

From booking your pass to enjoying the final stop.

Buy Your Ticket

Choose the Duluth ticket that works for your group and check out online. Every sale is final, so confirm plans before paying.

Check In & Get Your Wristband

Arrive at the check-in venue in your event information, show a valid government-issued photo ID, then take your wristband and digital map.

Visit Bars & Enjoy

Go through the participating bars in your own order, ask each about event deals, and keep the wristband on.

Keep the Celebration Going

End the night when you are ready. If anything extra is planned for the finish, your event information will list it.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

The essentials for planning your Duluth SantaCon

What is Duluth SantaCon?

A ticketed Santa bar crawl where guests check in for a wristband and visit participating Duluth bars. This page covers that ticketed crawl, which is separate from other Santa events around town.

When does Duluth SantaCon start?

That is not confirmed. Look to the event details on this page and to your ticket information for the date, start time and check-in details once they are set.

Where do I collect my wristband?

At check-in. The venue is named in your ticket information after confirmation, and only check-in hands out the wristband and digital map, so go there before any bar.

What does a ticket cover?

Expect a wristband, participating-bar entry, bar-set deals and a digital map. Drinks themselves are not automatically free, and ticket tiers can differ, so read what yours says.

Do I need to be 21?

Yes, 21 or older, with a valid government-issued photo ID. Bars may check ID separately from the wristband, so carry the physical card rather than a photo of it.

How cold is Duluth during the holidays?

Very. Average holiday-season highs are about 25 and lows about 10, with around 19 inches of snow in the snowiest month. Dress in insulated layers, boots and a hat.

Is Duluth hilly for a crawl?

Yes. The city sits on a steep hillside above Lake Superior, so look at the digital map before walking between stops, and wear boots with real tread.

Do bigger groups get anything extra?

Perhaps. If your party numbers 20 or more, discounts, VIP perks, reserved check-in and private party packages may be on offer, and the group form lower down is how to ask.
