The 12 Pubs Of Xmas - Jozi
Before everyone leaves on their December holiday, The Good Luck Bar & Outrageous Ostrich are bringing some Xmas spirit to Jozi on Saturday 16 December. What is the 12 Pubs of Xmas? Well, it is a pub crawl that originates in Ireland where people don the most outrageous Christmas outfits (accessories), trek between a total of 12, yes 12 different pubs in the area (In this case the 1 Fox Precinct), buying AND drinking a beverage in each. To make matters worse there are strict, complicated and unnecessary rules that you must abide by upon visiting each pub, which believe it or not your drunk friends will still find a way to enforce. The line-up includes Wonderboom and Easy Freak. Click here for more info and to get your ticket.
