Pre-Avalon Ball Pub Crawl: Stroll, Drink, Eat, Meet & Greet
Schedule
Fri May 15 2026 at 05:00 pm to 09:00 pm
UTC-07:00Location
Avalon Grille | Avalon, CA
For those on the island the evening before the Avalon Ball, may we suggest going out on the town, meeting old friends and making new ones, having cocktails or supper at any number of places, and spending the evening in a beautiful place in the best of company. In the past there were just too many of us for any one Avalon establishment to accommodate, so you might want to sample the island's watering holes in a "crawl."
You can arrange a rendezvous with others, or just show up at the centrally located Avalon Grille, see who's around and fan out from there.
Reservations are advisable at the Avalon Grille, the Bluewater and the other more formal restaurants around town.
