Good To Know
Before You Crawl
What happens at check-in?
Each event page lists its check-in location and time. Arrive early so your group can check in together, collect the event materials included with your ticket and head out with the crowd.
What should I wear?
Dress for the theme. Every crawl has its own costume theme published on its event page, and costumes are encouraged — matching crews get the best photos.
Is there an age requirement?
Yes. Every participant must be 21 or older, present valid government-issued photo identification and complete an individual waiver before participating. No exceptions.
What's included with my ticket?
Inclusions vary by event and are listed in each event's ticket description. Food and beverages are purchased separately unless specifically included in an event's ticket description.
What about weather?
Themed crawls move between indoor Downtown Detroit venues. Dress for the weather between stops, and plan a safe ride home.
Can I get a refund?
All themed-event ticket sales are final and nonrefundable. Cancellation Protection is not available for public or themed-event tickets.
