Welcome to the website of the 3rd Annual Santa Claus Pub-Crawl.
The Santa Claus Pub-Crawl (SCPC) is a festive event where
Newfoundlanders (as well as token CFA’s) dress as Father Christmas, Elves, Reindeer,
and new for this year, Ho Ho Ho Girls, to drink, dance, and be merry, at bars and pubs in
downtown St. John’s, Newfoundland, Canada to raise money for charity.

DRESS AS SANTA. GIVE TO CHARITY. DRINK FOR

When is the Santa Pub Crawl?
Where does it begin?
- We will start the SCPC at the same Pub we’ve started
for the last 3 years, the Rose & Thistle Pub (Water Street). We will be at The Rose
from 7:00 - 8:00pm. TOP
What is the purpose of the SCPC?
- Get into the spirit and spirits of Christmas (i.e. Raise
money for charity and drink). While the SCPC is not a formal charitable organization, all
profits raised from entry fees and corporate sponsors are donated to charities. TOP
Is there a charge to enter the
SCPC?
- There is a $3 entry fee. $2 from each participant will be
given to charity. The remaining $1 will cover the cost of the Official SCPC button you
will receive at the start of the pub-crawl. Each button will contain a number. Numbers
will be drawn for prizes at the end of the pub-crawl. TOP
How many bars and pubs does the
SCPC visit?
- We will be visiting 8 or 9 drinking establishments. The pub-crawl
route is available on the Map page. TOP
Is the SCPC a race?
- No. The SCPC, as the name suggests, is a pub crawl not a pub
sprint. We take our time and savor each drink, sing Christmas songs, and dance, at each
bar for about ½ an hour. The crawl should last about 4 hours depending on the pace set
by the participants. TOP
Do I have to wear a full Santa, Elf,
Reindeer, or Ho costume?
- We encourage full costumes. Only people wearing full costumes
will be given "HappyHour" prices at each bar in addition to praise and approval
from fellow Christmas characters. TOP
Where can I buy a Santa, Elf, Reindeer,
or Ho costume?
- Wal-Mart has agreed to bring in an extra 20 Santa and 20 Elf
costumes specifically for the SCPC. The suits costs $29.95 and are available the Avalon
Mall location.
- Reindeer antlers can be found at the San Francisco store at
the Avalon Mall. The iT Store at The Mall also has Christmas character apparel.
- Ho costumes are ho-made. A minimalist philosophy is
encouraged. TOP
