SantaCon 2025

What's the connection to our group? Cold weather wear? Alright, I got nothing other than that. But it's a wayyy fun thing to do while supporting local downtown establishments. It's this Saturday!!!

So, what is SantaCon?

SantaCon is celebrated as an annual pub crawl/flash mob, during which participants—all dressed up like Santa Claus, Mrs. Santa Clause, reindeer or elves—spend the evening drinking at different participating bars. This, before Santa's big night out.

It's an international event. Go here, click on locations, then scroll down to "Bend." www.santacon.info

Why do it? Because it’s fun. That is all. It’s one of the few chances left for adults to be silly without any kind of agenda.”

It's a costumed event. Walmart, Target have costumes. Still time for Amazon. Or, make yourself.

The event is free, no need to register or buy tickets.

Remember: This is a costume event. Santa looks like Santa, Mrs. Clause looks like Mrs. Clause, reindeer and elves look like reindeer and elves. Santa is JOLLY.
.
If you plan to get a little extra jolly, please bring a designated reindeer or take a taxi/uber home. You may bring up to 5 guests, the more the merrier. Lots of costumes to choose from on Amazon, as well as Target. I hot mine from Walmart.

*FOR SANTAS ONLY: IF YOU CROSS PATHS WITH A CHILD, YOU TO THEM ARE THE REAL DEAL, ACT ACCORDINGLY.

Last year we had 60 participants. Lets aim for 100! Remember, its,a flash mob; we must stick together.
