Santa Barbara SantaCon is a ticketed, 21+ holiday bar crawl for guests dressed as Santas, elves and reindeer. You check in, take an event wristband and visit participating bars in your own order, with deals those bars offer. State Street runs through downtown Santa Barbara, the Funk Zone district sits on Lower State Street, and the Pacific is close by. The digital crawl map covers the stops, so you can wander without carrying a plan in your head. Before you set out, your event information confirms where to check in, which bars are participating and how the schedule runs.
Everything important, without the wall of text.
The essentials that make this SantaCon crawl easy to join and fun to explore.
Santa Barbara’s participating bars are confirmed through your event information and listed on the digital map, so treat that as the lineup. Lineups can change, and each bar sets its own specials. State Street and the Funk Zone are downtown districts, but your map decides where you actually go.
From booking your pass to enjoying the final stop.

The essentials for planning your Santa Barbara SantaCon
What it is, a ticketed holiday bar crawl, with guests in Santa gear visiting participating Santa Barbara bars on a single wristband. Buy a ticket in advance, since it is needed to take part.
Arrival time depends on the event details at the top of this page. Your own check-in window is confirmed in the ticket and event information that reach you.
The crawl starts at the confirmed check-in venue named in your ticket and event information. Head there first, as that is where the wristband and digital map are given out.
The ticket includes the event wristband, participating bar access, deals those bars offer and a digital crawl map. Drinks are not automatically free, and ticket tiers can differ.
Yes, 21 or older, with a valid government-issued photo ID. Keep the physical card on you, since each bar checks ID on its own, apart from the wristband.
Santa Barbara winters are mild, though evenings can feel cooler. A costume with a light jacket underneath is usually enough, and comfortable shoes matter more.
Drinking is part of the plan, so arrange a rideshare, a designated driver or another ride home before you arrive. Settle it before the first stop, not at the end of the night.
Buying for 20 or more? Ask through the group form lower down. Discounts, VIP perks, reserved check-in and private party packages may be on the table.
Pick your pass and get ready to join the party.
