Event Information

THANK YOU ALL! We were blown away yet again by the generosity of the sell-out crowd of more than 1,000 participants at our Ghent Winter Bar Tour on Saturday, February 25th as this grandest of charity pub crawls stood firm against some strong winds and raised $22,250 for Edmarc Hospice for Children! This fantastic fundraising total solidified the event's position as the most successful charity pub crawl in America and showed once again just how big the hearts of Hampton Roads really are. Fourteen bars, eleven sponsors, and one hundred volunteers all helped to make this big event, now in its seventh year, run smoothly all day and long into the night, up and down Colley Avenue, 21st Street, and the surrounding locale in the historic midtown Norfolk neighborhood of Ghent. And when it was all done, we threw our largest and best closing ceremony yet in a big tent out back of the Belmont House of Smoke featuring some awesome local acts - Longfellow Street and The Tipping Point!
