Haunted Hop & Halloween Bar Crawl Weekend Pass – Chicago 2025

Two nights. One ticket. The ultimate Halloween takeover. The Weekend Pass gives you entry to both of Chicago’s biggest Halloween crawls — the Haunted Hop Bar Crawl on Friday, October 31st, and the Halloween Bar Crawl on Saturday, November 1st. Back-to-back nights of costumes, cocktails, and chaos, all across the Chicago’s hottest bars and nightclubs.

Friday kicks off with the Haunted Hop, a massive crawl where costumed partygoers pack the streets and every venue becomes a Halloween hotspot. Saturday turns up the volume with the Halloween Bar Crawl, bringing out DJs, dance floors, and spooky specials to close out the weekend in style.
