We are delighted that you want to do the Very Bad Santa Crawl with us. We started this back in 2006 with just 35 people. That makes this our 20th year. Now, this is not a parade. And it has nothing to do with running. This is a good old fashioned bar crawl - some people say that it is the best bar crawl in New Orleans. People actually fly in from other parts of the country to be a part of it.

The Very Bad Santa Crawl today

We've heard some say that this is their favorite event of the year and we hope to live up to that. What can you expect? Good question. To start with it is a bunch of people who come together to kick off the holiday season and share a good time. People dress up - as Santas, elves, H0-HOs, and snowmen - we've even had people dress as Christmas trees and as presents.

2006

We start at 5pm and meander through 8 bar stops - from one end of the French Quarter to the other. There will be drink specials at every stop and cover charges will be waived. And can you believe it - $3 shots in the French Quarter! The list of stops and all of the specials will be posted on the Very Bad Santa Facebook page just before the event.
