About Halloween Pub Crawls
Baton Rouge takes a party seriously, and Halloween gets the same treatment as a football Saturday: costumes, crowds and a determination to make the night last. The Baton Rouge Halloween Bar Crawl puts a route of participating bars under one wristband, so you can move through the city without picking a single spot and hoping. Bring a friend who knows the city if you can.
LSU is the center of gravity. Tigerland near campus has its own reputation, while downtown, Mid City and the Perkins Rowe area draw an older crowd. Add Southern University students, state workers, oil and chemical industry staff, and groups who drive in from Gonzales, Zachary, Denham Springs and Prairieville, and you have a mix that fills the city’s bars.
Late October in South Louisiana is warm and humid by Northern standards, with evening temperatures in the 60s and 70s. That means costumes can be elaborate and sweaty at the same time, so pick breathable fabrics. A rain shower can arrive quickly, and parking near popular bars gets tight on a busy weekend.
Wristband, digital map and specials all arrive with one ticket. Check in once with your photo ID, then move between participating bars in any order. The confirmation email names the starting venue, so you know whether the night begins near campus or elsewhere before you call the ride.
