About this Event

If you're looking for a laid back, create-your-own-adventure bar crawl experience, look no further! This bar crawl helps you embrace the holiday spirit while casually strolling from bar to bar with your friends and family.

The River North neighborhood is home to some of the best bars in Chicago and the atmosphere that they offer is unmatched! During the holiday season, the bars get decorated with holiday flair and several of them even taking on a whole new look, becoming Christmas themed Pop-Ups! These venues serve as a perfect pathway to the beautiful and renowned Christkindlmarket.

As you crawl, the most famous bars in Chicago will be showing off their midwest generosity by hooking you up with a shot to piggy-back off of any beverage purchase.

Whether you're traveling from out of town or a Chicagoan through and through, this is the perfect opportunity to embrace the holiday spirit with friends and family while throwing back a few drinks!
