Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about the Ann Arbor Halloween Bar Crawl 2026
What happens on the Ann Arbor Halloween Bar Crawl?
You buy one ticket, check in with event staff, and get a wristband plus a digital map of the participating bars. From there you work the route at your own pace, hitting Halloween drink specials and themed cocktails along the way. Live DJs play select stops.
When is the Ann Arbor crawl in 2026?
Two Saturday dates are listed, October 24 and October 31, each running 4:00 PM to 11:00 PM. Both are full evening windows rather than late-night-only events, which makes them easy to build a dinner or a pregame around.
Is there a Michigan football game to plan around?
Check the Wolverines schedule before you pick a date. Home Saturdays at Michigan Stadium reshape traffic, parking, and bar capacity across the whole city, and a noon kickoff means downtown is already loud by mid-afternoon. A road-game weekend is the calmer choice.
Where should I park in downtown Ann Arbor?
The downtown structures on Maynard, Forest, and Fourth Avenue are the practical options and sit a short walk from the Main Street and State Street bar clusters. Street meters near campus turn over fast and are not worth circling for on a Saturday night.
How much are tickets and when should I buy?
Pricing is on the event page and moves with the date and demand, so earlier is cheaper. Halloween-weekend tickets in a college town do not sit around. Buying ahead also locks in your date while both Saturdays are still open.
Do I have to wear a costume?
Not to join, but you will feel like the odd one out. Ann Arbor commits on Halloween, and the crawl runs a social media costume contest with a photographer and videographer working the route. If you want to be in that, come dressed.
How cold does it get, and how should I dress?
Late October in southeast Michigan runs cold after dark, frequently into the 30s and 40s. Build the costume so a jacket works over it, or plan around coat check at your first stop. Every venue is indoors, so the cold only bites between bars.
Can I come alone?
Yes, and it is a normal way to do this. Everyone on the route is following the same map to the same bars, so you end up in the same rooms as the rest of the crowd. Most people are talking to strangers well before the last stop.
