ElfCon 2022: a family friendly hot cocoa crawl

ElfCon is the 2nd annual lighthearted, charitable, group of adults and kids dressed like cute elves who roam the city in a hot cocoa crawl. It’s an adventure!
Our goal will be for all to have fun, drink hot cocoa, and raise money for charity.
Looking for some new and super exciting holiday fun? Tired of the SantaCon ruckus, the beer, and the drunken bros?
Try ElfCon- a family friendly hot cocoa crawl!
Instead of beer, hot cocoa!
Instead of drunken and publicly urinating adults, cute little children and their families!
And most importantly, instead of Santas, elves!!
On Sunday, December 11th at 10am-1pm ElfCon welcomes all children and families (and adults too!) with holiday joy to roam NYC in a hot cocoa crawl while dressed as elves! It will take place at various locations around Union Square Park in Manhattan. The hot cocoa venues will be announced for all the elves to gather before the hot cocoa crawl.
ElfCon is also a charity drive! Families who donate on elfcon.org will be eligible for a special Elf Passport to be stamped at each special cocoa location, the completion of which will get them a special prize!
To be alerted about the locations, make sure to follow ElfCon on Twitter.com/officialelfcon and Instagram.com/officialelfcon for all updates! And visit elfcon.org!
Also, make sure to donate to ElfCon to ensure that you are able to get an Elf Passport, which you can do at https://www.eventbrite.com/e/elfcon-2022-tickets-438677575437
