About
Norfolk, VA
New Years Eve Pub Crawls
Norfolk enters the New Year with the maritime confidence of a city that has always been shaped by the sea. The Ghent neighborhood is one of the best bar districts in Virginia and the Granby Street corridor in downtown Norfolk adds a contrasting urban energy that makes the city’s NYE bar scene genuinely interesting.
Our Norfolk New Years Eve Pub Crawl moves through Ghent and downtown Norfolk, stopping at venues that reflect the character of this Navy city. Norfolk bars have a personality that is direct, welcoming, and unpretentious. The people who drink here are serious about enjoying themselves and the venues we work with share that philosophy.
The weather in Norfolk on New Years Eve is typically mild for the region, benefiting from the moderating effect of the Chesapeake Bay and the Atlantic. The walk between Ghent and downtown is comfortable and the neighborhoods offer enough visual interest to make the route as enjoyable as the destinations.
Our hosts manage the Norfolk route efficiently. Specials are confirmed at every stop, wristbands handle entry, and the midnight countdown happens with the genuine community energy that this Navy town generates when it comes together to celebrate.
