About
Jersey City, NJ
SANTACON

Jersey City SantaCon is a ticketed crawl for anyone willing to wear red. Check in once, take your wristband, then work through the participating bars at your own speed while each stop runs its own event deals. PATH trains stop at Grove Street, Exchange Place and Journal Square, and the Hudson-Bergen Light Rail runs along the waterfront, so most guests can leave the car at home. The digital map lists the stops, which keeps the route simple. Where you check in, which bars take part and how the schedule runs are all confirmed in your event information.

THE EVENT DETAILS

Everything important, without the wall of text.

One wristband

One check-in, then your wristband gets you into participating Jersey City bars.

Event route

The digital map shows each stop and sits easily alongside PATH and light rail.

Holiday drink specials

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

The essentials for planning your Jersey City SantaCon

What is Jersey City SantaCon?

The event is a ticketed Santa crawl through participating Jersey City bars, all on one wristband. Buy your ticket online ahead of time, because the wristband only goes to ticket holders.

What time does the crawl start?

Hours live in the event details at the top of this page. Check-in timing arrives with your ticket information, so read it before leaving home.

What does my ticket include?

The ticket covers a wristband, entry to participating bars, bar-run event deals and a digital map. Buying the drinks is still on you; the bars offer the deals.

How old do I need to be?

Age 21 is the cutoff, and a valid government-issued photo ID proves it. Carry the physical card, since a bar may check it again after you collect your wristband.

Should I take PATH to the crawl?

PATH stops at Grove Street, Exchange Place and Journal Square, and the light rail runs along the waterfront. Check late-evening schedules, and review each transit agency's rules on carrying alcohol.

Do I have to visit every bar?

No. Visit as many participating bars as you like at your own pace within event hours. The digital map lets you skip around instead of following a fixed order.

Can I join the crawl late?

Possibly, but check the confirmed check-in window in your event information first. You need your wristband to take part, and it is only handed out at check-in.

What should I wear in cold weather?

Winter in Jersey City is cold, and you will be outdoors between stops. Put thermal layers under the Santa suit and wear closed shoes you can walk in for hours.
