Journey to the End of the Night: Halloween Street Game | SF

Submitted by the Event Organizer

Journey to the End of the Night is a free street game played across cities around the world, spreading from San Francisco to Chicago, Washington, DC, London, Berlin, Mexico City, and beyond.

The third Halloween edition of Journey to the End of the Night returns to the haunted cityscape of San Francisco this year to launch the 2011 Come Out and Play Festival. Last year, 1,300 participants helped take over city streets in the name of play, and this year will present new strategic obstacles with the introduction of the Chaser Killer and nonlinear checkpoints.

NOTE: Location Change – due to Occupy San Francisco in Justin Herman Plaza, game start will instead be Rincon Park meet near Cupid’s Span, the bow and arrow sculpture  at Rincon Park, near Folsom Street and the Embarcadero.

What is “Journey to the End of the Night”? Players sporting colored ribbons will try to make it through a series of checkpoints on foot or by public transportation, while avoiding being caught by chasers.

No bicycles, no skates, no cars, no taxis. You may only travel on foot or by public transportation. Wear comfortable shoes, and bring water. Prizes will be awarded for top finishers and best chasers.
