SF’s Epic Halloween Pub Crawl “Crawloween 2026” (Oct. 24-Nov. 1)

The San Francisco Halloween Pub Crawl 2026: Crawloween Returns! This year, it’s expected to be even bigger, with new bars, new surprises and four nights of non-stop Halloween excitement.

October in San Francisco brings Fleet Week, amazing weather and the San Francisco Halloween Pub Crawl, better known as Crawloween. Produced by CrawlSF, this massive 4-day event has become a Bay Area tradition, bringing together thousands of people for an amazing Halloween weekend filled with drinks, DJs, costumes and a whole bunch of fun.

In 2025, Crawloween drew over 25,000 people to bars across The Marina, Russian Hill, North Beach and Polk Village, making it the largest Halloween event in San Francisco.

The 2026 San Francisco Halloween Pub Crawl will take place over four days, giving you multiple chances to experience the biggest Halloween party in the city.

The San Francisco Halloween Pub Crawl is a massive celebration of the best holiday of the year. Join the CrawlSF Team and thousands of your new best friends as you head from bar to bar along the pub crawl path. There will be pub crawls on Saturday, 10/24, Friday, 10/30, Saturday 10/31 & Sunday, 11/1.
