SantaCon is celebrated in 302 cities and 41 countries.
What is SantaCon you ask?
SantaCon is an annual mass gathering of people dressed in Santa Claus costumes parading publicly on streets and in bars in cities around the world. The focus is on spontaneity and creativity, while having a good time and spreading cheer and goodwill. – Wikipedia
SantaCon.info was founded in 2008 by Santa Ian (webmaster) to keep track of a few SantaCons in the eastern USA for himself and his friends. As more & more people/santas found the site useful, Santa Ian decided to take on the bigger responsibility of running the site as a service to santas around the world.

Stamford SantaCon
Date: December 7, 2013
Locations: Murphy’s (11AM – 4PM), Bradford’s (Loft will be open at 4PM), SBC, Black Bear, and Bar Q
Due to the onslaught of Santa’s from last year, I won’t be posting specific times to hit the bars. Instead I will only post specials. I will also highly encourage a start at Murphy’s around noon and to move southward from there. Ending the night at the Hideaway Cafe isn’t a bad idea either
