Pick concepts that survive separation: each half must read alone, because you will drift apart at a party, and the pair joke should bonus, not carry. Avoid tethered or shared costumes at crowded venues, ban any piece that occupies both hands, and match the effort level within the pair, since one elaborate half plus one t-shirt half reads as a hostage situation.
Everything near the party district hits capacity at closing time, so beat the rush: eat a real dinner beforehand, and pick your late-night spot before going out, one that's a block off the main drag, not on it. Ordering delivery to home right as you call the ride often beats any line. A granola bar in a costume pocket has saved many nights.
The ticket page is the truth: look for "21+" or an ID-required note, and assume any bar crawl, nightclub party, or late-night event is 21+ even if unstated. All-ages versions usually run as daytime or early-evening events with "family" in the listing. Mixed venues sometimes flip at 8 or 9 pm, so a legal-but-underage friend needs the exact cutoff time.
