Augusta, GA
Santa Pub Crawls
Augusta’s SantaCon brings the Masters Golf Tournament city’s bar culture and Georgia holiday spirit to one of the most sports-heritage December celebrations in the South. The downtown Augusta and the Broad Street bar corridor are the heart of Augusta nightlife and when SantaCon arrives the combination of Augusta National Golf Club’s global prestige, the Augusta arts and riverfront community, and the excellent local bars creates a holiday celebration with an Augusta character that is warm, golf-heritage-rooted, and genuinely Georgia.
Augusta is famous worldwide for the Masters Tournament and the green jacket and the SantaCon reflects that prestige alongside Augusta’s warm Southern community character. The Santa costume competition draws on the Augusta University and Paine College communities and the Augusta arts scene and the entries have a Georgia combination of Southern warmth and genuine golf-country creativity.
December in Augusta is cool, typically ranging from 30 to 46 degrees at night. The Georgia winter has a mild Southern character and the Broad Street bar community provides the warm, welcoming hospitality that Augusta’s community spirit is known for.
Our hosts manage the Augusta route through Broad Street and the downtown bar corridor. Specials confirmed at every stop, wristbands handle entry, and the Santa competition celebrates Augusta creativity.
