About
Minneapolis, MN
Halloween Pub Crawls
Minnesotans have a long, practiced relationship with cold, and the Minneapolis Halloween Bar Crawl is built for people who treat a parka as a costume accessory. One wristband links participating bars across the city, including Punch Bowl Social, so you can move through a night out without committing to a single room.
Minneapolis nightlife is spread out in a useful way. Downtown and the Warehouse District, the North Loop, Northeast and Uptown each have their own character, and the Blue and Green Line light rail connects a good portion of downtown and the university area. The skyway system keeps parts of downtown walkable even in bad weather, which matters more here than almost anywhere.
Late October in the Twin Cities can go either way, from crisp and mild to bitterly cold with an early snow. Evenings in the 30s and 40s are normal, so layer under the costume and pick shoes you can walk in. Halloween weekend usually draws University of Minnesota students and alumni, local professionals and groups from the suburbs.
The confirmation email has the exact check-in venue and arrival window. Pack your photo ID. The crawl is strictly 21 and over, and staff check every guest at the door. Eat dinner first, and keep gloves and a hat in the coat pocket in case the temperature drops fast.
