Three nights
Pick your night
Wicker Park runs Friday October 30 and Saturday October 31. Pick one and every buy button on this page follows it.
You are looking at Sat Oct 24. Each night is its own ticket, its own wristband and its own check-in window.
The case
Why Wicker Park
The night does not end at two
Every other route in this city closes when the 2am licences close. Wicker Park has 4am rooms, and two bars on this stretch hold 5am Saturday licences, so a crawl here can still be running when the rest of Chicago has gone home. We build the route to finish in one of them.
Live music and dance floors over bottle service
This is a stage-and-DJ neighborhood. The rooms on this route have programming, not table minimums.
Costumes are made, not bought
Wicker Park runs 25 to 35 and thrifted, and the costume contest here is the hardest of the six to win.
The route shape
The walk
Three legs off Six Corners, where Milwaukee, North and Damen come together.
The list
The lineup, and when it locks
The Wicker Park route and every door window publishes on a date we name in advance. We are not going to list bars here before they have signed, because half the value of a locked list is that nothing on it was a guess.
When it publishes it carries every address, every door window and every drink special window, as two separate timed rows per stop. A discounted drink and an open door are different clocks and we do not print them as though they were one.
If a venue drops out after the lock date
We tell every ticket holder by text and email within 24 hours, name the replacement, and you can transfer your ticket to another Crawlloween night or to another person at no cost.
