The San Francisco Ugly Sweater Pub Crawl

While the holidays might mean different things to different people, the majority of people engage in some type of celebrations at the end of the year, leading up to New Year’s Eve. Whether you celebrate Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, Las Posadas, Winter Solstice or any other holiday, there’s one thing that can bring together people of all different cultures, religions and ethnicities to celebrate together. Grabbing some cheap drinks and meeting new friends on a huge San Francisco pub crawl is a great way to enjoy life and to celebrate for absolutely no reason at all.

CrawlSF’s holiday pub crawl is the perfect event to help you dodge your holiday responsibilities for a bit and just relax and throw back a few cocktails with friends. Even better, it is an Ugly Sweater Pub Crawl, so you can feel free to wear your craziest or funniest sweater and really get into the spirit. After all, everything is more fun when you are wearing a costume.

The Pub Crawl takes place every year on the Saturday before Christmas (typically the week after SantaCon). The event starts at Mayes Oyster House, where you can check in and pick up your pub crawl wristbands and maps with a list of all the bars and specials. Bars on the crawl typically include Mayes, Mcteagues, R Bar, El Lopo, Lush Lounge, Amsterdam Cafe, Wreck Room, DecoDance and more. Each participating venue will have an awesome selection of cheap drink specials on cocktails, beers and shots.

The Ugly Sweater Craze

Ugly sweaters have become a staple of pop culture, with their garish colors, outrageous patterns, and often tacky designs. They’re so popular that there’s even a national holiday dedicated to them: National Ugly Sweater Day, celebrated on the third Friday of December each year. But it’s not just about wearing ugly sweaters – it’s about having fun and embracing the kitschiness of it all.

One of the best ways to celebrate National Ugly Sweater Day is by attending Sweatercon, the San Francisco Ugly Sweater Pub Crawl. This annual event brings together locals and visitors alike, all sporting their ugliest and most outrageous sweaters as they hop from pub to pub in some of San Francisco’s most vibrant neighborhoods.

But why attend an ugly sweater pub crawl? For starters, it’s a great way to get into the holiday spirit and let loose with friends and family. You’ll be surrounded by like-minded individuals who are all there to have a good time and celebrate the season.

Another great thing about ugly sweater parties and pub crawls is that they give you a chance to be creative. Unlike other holiday parties that may require fancy attire or specific dress codes, ugly sweater parties are all about embracing your own unique style and having fun with it. Whether you’re wearing a sweater that’s been in your family for generations or one that you picked up at a thrift store, it’s all about the joy of wearing something that’s unabashedly over-the-top.

As for the Sweatercon pub crawl itself, attendees can expect to visit multiple bars and pubs throughout the day, each offering drink specials and other holiday-themed festivities. It’s a great way to explore some of San Francisco’s most lively bars, from Mayes Oyster House to California Jacks, all while wearing your ugliest sweater with pride.

If you’re looking for a fun and festive way to celebrate the holidays, the San Francisco Ugly Sweater Pub Crawl is the perfect event. With its fun and lighthearted atmosphere, it’s a great way to embrace the holiday spirit and have fun with friends and family. So grab your ugliest sweater and get ready to hit the town – it’s going to be a blast!
