Huntington Beach, CA
Ugly Sweater Pub Crawls
Huntington Beach’s Ugly Sweater Pub Crawl brings Surf City USA’s beloved beach bar culture to the holiday sweater tradition in one of Southern California’s most beloved coastal communities. Main Street and Pacific Coast Highway are the heart of Huntington Beach nightlife and on ugly sweater night the combination of surf culture, beach bar quality, and warm Southern California December weather creates a holiday celebration that is completely unique to this iconic beach city.
Our Huntington Beach route moves through Main Street and the surrounding bar district, stopping at venues that represent the laid-back quality and genuine surf culture that has made HB famous. The ugly sweater competition in Huntington Beach draws on the creative energy of a surf and beach community and the entries here have the easy California creativity that reflects a city that genuinely knows how to have fun.
December in Huntington Beach is mild and beautiful, typically ranging from 50 to 65 degrees at night. The Pacific Ocean air is fresh and the Main Street holiday decorations have a California beach quality that makes Christmas in HB uniquely enjoyable. Walking between venues in the warm California December evening in an ugly sweater is an experience that East Coast visitors find both charming and impossible to believe.
Our hosts manage the Huntington Beach route with local knowledge. Specials are confirmed, wristbands handle entry at every stop, and the ugly sweater contest brings Surf City creativity to the holiday season.
