Don your holiday apparel and join your neighbors for Astoria's most festive Scavenger Hunt & Bar Crawl!

100% of event registration proceeds will support Astoria Food Pantry and the 31st Avenue Open Streets. Learn more about these organizations at the bottom of the page.

Here's how it works!

WHO: Friends are encouraged to sign up in groups of 2-6 and you are also welcome to come solo. A team will be made of single players - a great way to meet new neighbors before the new year! Registration is $30 per person and includes a wristband for drink specials at participating bars and a chance to win PRIZES. Families with children can sign up ($15 per child) but otherwise unaccompanied minors under 21 will not be allowed entry participating bars.

WHAT: Guided by curated clues on the ScanQuest app, you will spend 2.5 hours getting to know your neighborhood on a new level by completing clues (places, things, trivia, +more!) with your team. Get excited to visit your favorite 31st Avenue watering holes including: Heart of Gold, Diamond Dogs, Bar Dahlia, Hutch, Halsey's & more. Drinking is not required to participate (or even win!), but patronizing local businesses does get you extra points!

WHERE: Along the 31st Avenue Open Streets & beyond! The meet-up location will be emailed to participants in advance.

WHY: A special way to gather with friends and neighbors for a pre-holiday activity... and in support of TWO impactful, local causes! Plus, at the end of the event you're left with some great photo and video content of your team to memorialize the day!

Astoria Food Pantry provides food to over 500 people per week, acts as a community center for neighbors of all ages, and provides space for many local mutual aid groups and community projects, including weekly English classes and game nights, our Free Store for clothing, QNS Collaborative and other artist collaboratives, Astoria Trans Collective, The Rolling Library, The People's Bodega, Show & Tell and more.

31st Avenue Open Street of Astoria operates every Saturday and Sunday from April through December between 33rd and 35th Street and closes to all motor vehicle traffic and parking, allowing the street to open up for walking, cycling, and outdoor activities, like dining and community programming. It is maintained by local members of the community who volunteer to run the program, in coordination with the Department of Transportation and the businesses on the block. All neighbors and visitors are invited to gather on the Open Street and use it however they see fit - this is a people-centered public space, open to all!

Further details including start/end locations and instructions will be emailed to registered participants on Friday, December 8th. If capacity allows, in person registration will begin at 2:30PM on a first come basis for $40 cash or Venmo.
