Mayes Oyster House

Planning a Halloween night for a large group can be complicated. One person wants to dance, someone else wants to find drink specials and another person wants to stop for food. The San Francisco Halloween Pub Crawl makes it easier by bringing all of those options together in one multi-bar event.
On Saturday, October 24, 2026, CrawlSF will launch its four-day <a href="https://crawloween.com/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Halloween Pub Crawl</a> with more than 20 participating locations. The event runs from 4PM to 10PM and begins at Mayes Oyster House, located at 1233 Polk Street. Event Details

Event: San Francisco Halloween Bar Crawl
Date: Saturday, October 24, 2026 Time: 4PM to 10PM
Check-In Location: Mayes Oyster House Address: 1233 Polk Street, San Francisco, CA 94123
Other Event Dates: October 30, October 31 and November 1Tickets:&nbsp;<a href="https://www.eventbrite.com/e/san-francisco-halloween-bar-crawl-2026-tickets-1996167106551" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Eventbrite</a>

Every participant must check in at Mayes to collect an official event wristband. Once the group has completed check-in, everyone can begin visiting the participating bars. The event does not use a fixed tour schedule, so groups can choose their own stops and change plans as the night continues.
The October 24 bar list includes Union Street Ale House, Route 101, El Lopo, Rick &amp; Roxy’s, Hanaro, The Blue Light, Jaxson, Decodance, Beso Mae, Mayes Oyster House, Lush Lounge, R Bar, Uni Pizza, Wizards &amp; Wands, Campus, White Rabbit, Silver Cloud, Music City Starfactory, Sacred Taco, Comet Club, Rockwell, McTeague’s Saloon and Westwood.
This range of locations helps solve one of the biggest problems with group outings. Everyone does not have to agree on a single bar for the entire night. The group can move around, experience different settings and select the locations that work best for everyone.
Participants who want music and dancing can seek out locations featuring DJs. Guests who prefer casual bars can find places where it is easier to talk and spend time with friends. Food stops are also included in the participating lineup, providing opportunities to take a break during the six-hour event.
Tickets include discounted drinks at participating locations and free admission to official bars. Guests can also enjoy party favors, contests, music, Halloween activities and surprises. Costumes are encouraged, making the crawl a good choice for birthday groups, friend gatherings, coworkers, couples and anyone looking for an organized <a href="https://halloweensf.com/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">San Francisco Halloween</a> outing.
Because the event takes place on October 24, groups do not have to compete with every other Halloween plan scheduled for October 31. They can celebrate early and still attend another party the following weekend. Guests can even use the opening event for a group costume and choose individual costumes for Halloween night.
The full CrawlSF series continues with events on October 30, October 31 and November 1. Attending October 24 provides access to the opening event. Admission to other dates will depend on the ticket type purchased.
CrawlSF will also be trying to build on its record-setting 2025 Halloween event. After breaking the World’s Largest Pub Crawl record, the company hopes to break its own record in 2026. Every group that participates on opening day will help start that effort.
 What’s Included:
<ul><li>Discounted drinks at participating bars</li><li>Free admission to official locations</li><li>Access to more than 20 bars</li><li>DJs and music</li><li>Party favors</li><li>Contests</li><li>Halloween activities</li><li>Special surprises </li></ul>

Marin Jazz at the Lark presents Jackie Ryan - a Tribute to the Divas of JazzA special homage to the incredible jazz vocalists that Jackie Ryan grew up listening “who taught me everything I know about singing Jazz. To say that I love these ladies is an understatement, as their voices became a part of my soul.”Jackie Ryan "is one of the outstanding jazz vocalists of her generation...She is the thoroughbred vocal equivalent of the Triple Crown, rivaling the dexterous sass of Sarah Vaughan, the instinctive smarts of Carmen McRae and the scintillating verve of Diana Krall." - Christopher Loudon, Jazz Times

College of San Mateo Theatre

Viva La Vida with Excerpts from P1N0CCH10 &amp; Carmilla features new works and a returning Oceánica Ballet autumn tradition. 
Act 1 premieres selections from two upcoming story ballets. P1N0CCH10, a retelling of Carlo Collodi's classic tale of Pinocchio, explores humanity, artificial intelligence, and our relationship with the natural world. Carmilla, an adaptation of Sheridan Le Fanu's groundbreaking sapphic vampire novella, stages a mysterious masquerade ball.
Act II features the return of Viva La Vida, the original story of Lucio and Lupita in a joyful folklórico-infused tale about transcending loss and the resilience of love, inspired by Día de los Muertos. In this “celebration of life, loved ones and culture,” writes Jocelyn Tong of the Daily Californian, “mythic creatures from the land of the dead … [lead to] twirled scarves and snapped-open fans …in a story of homecoming.” Throughout all three stories, the wisdom of women across time and cultures is amplified.

It's never too late to start or return to piano!

Rachel Bourne Piano Lessons

Whether you are brand new to piano, returning after many years, or looking for lessons for your child, my lessons are fun, relaxed, and encouraging, while still providing a strong foundation in reading music, rhythm, technique, music theory and overall musicianship. In 2026, I am celebrating my 28th year of teaching private piano lessons. I teach a wide range of musical styles, including popular music, standards, Broadway, jazz, blues, film scores, and classical repertoire. One of my favorite parts of teaching is helping each student discover music they genuinely can't wait to sit down and play.
