The Old Market opens with Halloween instead of Oktoberfest, the one date absent here. In a district built by German brewers, that is a strange omission.
Which Omaha district hosts the crawls?
The Old Market, almost certainly. The cobbled warehouse district concentrates the city's bars into a few blocks close to the river.
Why does the Old Market work for a route?
Because the restored warehouse blocks keep venues tightly together, which is unusual density for a plains city and ideal for walking.
Do the Old Market cobbles cause trouble?
They catch people out. The streets are original brick and stone, uneven in places, which is worth knowing before choosing footwear.
Does the College World Series matter?
It falls in June, close to the Pride date. The series fills Omaha with visitors for a fortnight, which is worth checking against that slot.
How cold are the Omaha winter dates?
Cold, usually in the twenties and thirties after dark with plains wind, so the compact Old Market is a genuine advantage in December.
Is there a Huskers fixture to check?
Worth doing for the autumn dates, though Lincoln is an hour away. A home Saturday there pulls heavily on the whole eastern half of the state.
Which Omaha date runs the longest?
December 31 in the Old Market, at eight hours. The December pair shut at eight in the evening, so the contrast across that month is sharp.
