Check reviews or ask friends for recommendations. Our favorite Halloween Bar Crawl is Boos Fest, obviously.

Choosing the Right Costume Choosing the right costume is a key part of any Halloween bar crawl. Your costume should be fun, creative, and comfortable enough for a night of bar hopping. Remember, Halloween is a time for fun and creativity, so don't be afraid to think outside the box with your costume!
