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.
Don't try. Instead, name the route order at check-in, set one anchor bar as the regroup point at a fixed time, and start a group thread with live locations. Sub-groups moving at their own pace beat one herd waiting outside every bathroom. Matching costume elements, same hats, same glow color, let you spot your people across a packed room instantly.
