what is pub crawl

A pub crawl, also known as a bar crawl, bar tour, or bar-hopping, is an activity where participants visit multiple pubs or bars in a single session. In many European cities, public pub crawls are organized as social gatherings for local expatriates and tourists. In the UK, pub crawls are generally spontaneous nights out where participants arrange to meet somewhere and decide over drinks where to drink next. Structured routes with regular stops are rare, and most drinking sessions based around a special occasion such as a birthday or a leaving celebration will involve a pub crawl, often with the group splitting up but agreeing on meeting at the next location. In some regions, such as the north of Spain around the Basque Country, the tradition for groups of male friends is to crawl pubs and drink a short glass of wine at each pub, often singing traditional songs. A pub crawl is a bar-hopping experience that will take you through several bars, pubs, and a club, bringing you together with a big group of people.
