Fort Lauderdale, FL
Ugly Sweater Pub Crawls
Fort Lauderdale’s Ugly Sweater Pub Crawl brings the Venice of America’s beloved nightlife and South Florida holiday spirit to the holiday sweater tradition. Las Olas Boulevard and the surrounding bar district are the heart of Fort Lauderdale’s celebrated nightlife scene and on ugly sweater night the combination of South Florida warmth, waterway setting, and the excellent Fort Lauderdale bar community creates a holiday celebration that is completely unique to South Florida.
Our Fort Lauderdale route moves through Las Olas Boulevard and the surrounding bar district, stopping at venues that represent the full quality of what Fort Lauderdale’s nightlife has become. The ugly sweater competition in Fort Lauderdale draws on the creative energy of a South Florida community that has found ways to celebrate the holiday tradition without cold weather and the results are uniquely warm-climate adaptations.
December in Fort Lauderdale is warm and beautiful, typically ranging from 60 to 75 degrees at night. The South Florida winter is the best season of the year and celebrating the holidays in ugly sweaters on Las Olas with the waterways glittering in the holiday lights is a genuinely wonderful South Florida experience.
Our hosts manage the Fort Lauderdale route with local knowledge. Specials are confirmed, wristbands handle entry at every stop, and the ugly sweater contest brings South Florida creativity to the holiday season.
