You better watch out, you better not cry, you better get drunk, I’m telling you why, the Santa Pub Crawl is coming to town!
Now in its 14th year, the event was started by the gentlemen at the Whiskey Appreciation Society as a way to give back to the community and help holiday-deprived Guangzhou expats reconnect with their Christmas spirt. Last year, the event managed to raise RMB12,000 to donate to GIVES (Guangdong International Volunteer Expat Service), an organization that works closely with all parts of the international community and has invested considerable time helping autistic centers across Guangdong.
But before we get into the details of this year’s event, let’s take a look at some photos from last year's sold out pub crawl:

This year’s Santa Pub Crawl will take place on Saturday, November 25, and take attendees to a minimum of four venues via chartered buses! Unlike past years, the 2017 edition of the popular pub crawl will start at Morgan’s, as opposed to The Paddy Field Irish Bar. The rest of the itinerary is a closely guarded secret, although we can attest: this year’s boozy roster is an all-star lineup.
Tickets are on sale now and, with only 250 available, they are expected to go faster than Santa’s supernatural sleigh. Tickets are available at McCawley's, Morgan's and the Happy Monk (Xingsheng Lu) and you will need to pay onsite, at the time of purchasing, to recieve your coveted Santa Pub Crawl ticket. No tickets will be sold at the door this year, so act fast to avoid disappointment.
Tickets cost RMB250 and include transportation between venues, snacks and all-you-can-drink alcohol, which, quite frankly, is difficult to beat. Be forewarned: if you show up without a costume you will NOT be allowed to participate in the holiday debauchery. (Unsure where to purchase your Santa costume? Don’t fret, we have a helpful guide for that).
Prepare your Santa garb and serve your liver warning, because November 25 is the 14th Annual Guangzhou Santa Pub Crawl and we hope to see you there!
Sat Nov 25, 6pm-late; RMB250. Morgan's Public House.
