Organize The Ultimate Bar Crawl Nothing brings friends, coworkers and strangers together better than a good old fashioned bar crawl. So before you send out those invites for the party of the century, check out these pro tips for making sure your bar crawl is a success.
Be Smart About Planning Your Route While this may seem like an obvious one, too many bar crawls fall apart due to a lack of proper planning ahead of time. First, decide on the four to six bars you want to hit—any more and people will tucker out; any less and it’s hardly a “crawl.” Once you’ve mapped the route, share it with your guests, along with a (flexible) timed schedule and your contact info, in case people want to join later in the crawl.
Give The Bar A Heads Up In Advance It’s incredibly important to let the bars know that you will be coming beforehand, ideally several days in advance. It’s not just polite; it’s practical. Make sure each bar will be able to accommodate a larger group.
If You Want To Have A Theme, Choose Carefully Everyone loves a good theme, but doing one for your bar crawl isn’t completely necessary. Your friends will be just as glad to drink in the name of drinking without the hassle of having to put together a tacky costume. Also, if you’re going with a theme, try to pick one that doesn’t lend itself to trashy, frat party-esque interpretations.
Embrace Social Media With A #BarCrawlHashtag Say what you will about millennials, but they’ve documented more experiences and memories than any generation before them. Embrace social media by creating a special hashtag for the group.
Thanks! Have a drink, relax and roll with the bar crawl.
