Ugly Sweater Pub Crawls
Sacramento’s Ugly Sweater Pub Crawl brings California’s capital city bar culture and Central Valley holiday spirit to the holiday sweater tradition. Midtown Sacramento and the K Street corridor are the heart of Sacramento nightlife and on ugly sweater night the combination of farm-to-fork culinary culture, the growing Sacramento arts scene, and the excellent bar community creates a holiday celebration that reflects the full quality of what this increasingly celebrated California city has built.
Our Sacramento route moves through Midtown and the surrounding bar district, stopping at venues that represent the farm-to-fork ethos and bar culture quality that has made Sacramento a destination. The ugly sweater competition in Sacramento draws on the creative energy of a city that has developed a strong food, beer, and bar culture and the entries reflect that combination of agricultural authenticity and urban creativity.
December in Sacramento is mild with Valley fog, typically ranging from 40 to 55 degrees at night. The California capital winter is brief and Midtown at Christmas has a festive energy that benefits from the warm California air and the beautiful holiday decorations along the Victorian streets. The bar community in Sacramento is excellent and welcoming.
Our hosts manage the Sacramento route with local knowledge. Specials are confirmed, wristbands handle entry at every stop, and the ugly sweater contest brings Farm-to-Fork Capital creativity to the holiday season.
