Frequently Asked Questions

What time is check-in?

Check-in times vary by venue and neighborhood, generally starting between 12 PM and 3 PM, with specific late check-in locations available until 4 PM.

Which ticket should I buy and how many?

One ticket is required per person. Ticket prices vary based on venue popularity and proximity to selling out; purchase earlier for potentially lower prices.

When will I receive my crawl schedule?

The crawl schedule, including maps and venue details, is typically provided closer to the event date. Attendees are not required to strictly follow it but can use it as a guide.

What if my ticket says a different check-in location than what I planned?

Your ticket indicates your assigned check-in venue. If it differs from your preferred location, proceed to your assigned venue to receive your wristband and event materials.

What's to stop me from going to these bars without a ticket?

Purchasing a ticket grants you cover-free entry to all participating venues and access to exclusive event perks, including party trolleys and after-parties, which would otherwise incur cover charges.
