About
Clawson, MI
Ugly Sweater Pub Crawls
Clawson’s Ugly Sweater Pub Crawl brings Oakland County’s bar culture and Michigan holiday spirit to the holiday sweater tradition in one of Metro Detroit’s most beloved small cities. Main Street Clawson has developed into a genuinely vibrant bar district and on ugly sweater night the combination of Oakland County community warmth, the Metro Detroit creative energy, and the excellent local bars creates a holiday celebration that reflects the genuine character of this beloved small Michigan city.
Our Clawson route moves through Main Street and the surrounding bar district, stopping at venues that represent the quality and character of what Clawson’s bar scene has built. The ugly sweater competition in Clawson draws on the creative energy of a Metro Detroit community and the entries reflect that Michigan combination of automotive industry pride and genuine Midwest holiday warmth.
December in Clawson is cold, typically ranging from 22 to 32 degrees at night. The Oakland County winter is real and the Main Street holiday decorations have the warm, community character of a small Michigan city that takes genuine pride in its downtown. The Clawson bar community has the warmth and quality of Oakland County at its most welcoming.
Our hosts manage the Clawson route with local knowledge. Specials are confirmed, wristbands handle entry at every stop, and the ugly sweater contest brings Oakland County creativity to the holiday season.
