Hoboken St. Patrick’s Day 2025: Bar Crawl Schedule
Now that Valentine's Day is over, it's time to start thinking about all things St. Patrick's Day. The Hoboken St. Patrick's Day parade dates back to the 1980s, but after being permanently halted in 2012, some St. Paddy's events in Hoboken have become somewhat controversial. What was once a day that celebrated a 26-year tradition and hosted NJ’s biggest parade, turned into a day filled with arrests, public drunkenness, and chaos for law enforcement. Either way, these bar crawl events happen annually — this year, there are six that have been announced so far. Most are organized by PubCrawls.com, while other events are put together by local businesses in an attempt to calm the chaos. We've rounded up all of the crawls happening locally for easy browsing. Read on for a list of the St. Patrick's Day bar crawl events happening in Hoboken, New Jersey for 2025.
Behind the Bar Crawl
The LepreCon Crawl is a privately-organized event, coordinated by Pubcrawls.com, that quickly took the place of the annual St. Patrick’s Day Parade. Per its name, it’s a Hoboken bar crawl held on the first Saturday in March. The event became known as a cause of public drunkenness and bar fights, leading to arrests, hospital visits, local complaints, and other issues. Per TapInto, the presence of law enforcement was increased in an effort to curb rowdiness, especially after the crawl’s one-year hiatus during the pandemic. Increasing police presence and publicizing fines have reportedly helped decrease issues to an extent, though the event is still frowned upon by many local residents and businesses.

The City of Hoboken has been trying to crack down on this event. Mayor Bhalla has urged both residents and businesses not to participate — though many local businesses say that participation is crucial to keep business afloat during a slow season.
