Wizards Night Out is a wizards-themed bar crawl. Dress up in your best wizard, witch, or magical creature costume, explore participating bars, enjoy exclusive drink specials, and party with hundreds of fellow fans.

Your ticket includes event entry, your wristband for access to all participating bars, and exclusive drink specials at each venue throughout the night. Some ticket tiers include additional perks.

Costumes are encouraged and most guests go all out — robes, house colors, wands, scarves, magical creatures, you name it. But if costumes aren't your thing, you're still welcome. You'll have more fun if you dress up though.

Check in at the starting venue to get your wristband. After that, you're free to visit the participating bars in any order you want at your own pace. Each bar has its own drink specials and vibe.

Your ticket gets you access to exclusive drink specials at every participating bar — typically $3-5 select drinks. This isn't an open bar, but the deals are significantly cheaper than regular prices.

See the lineup above. We are constantly adding new bars, so check back for updates.

Check-in opens at the time listed on your ticket. We recommend arriving early — the line moves fast but the best start is right at check-in time so you can hit all the bars.

The event happens rain or shine. All participating bars are indoor venues, so weather won't stop the party.
