📍Check-In Location

All guests must check-in at Terrestrial Brewing, located at: 7524 Father Frascati, Cleveland, OH 44102.

Please arrive at your event start time.

*Please note the length of the event is 4 hours. The first hour is spent at the check-in bar (meet your guide, sign paperwork, get your gift bag & complimentary snack) followed by a 3 hour trolley route which will make stops! 

🚗Parking

Parking is not included with your ticket. Plan to arrive a little early to get a parking spot before boarding the trolley.

Terrestrial Brewing Company has a small parking lot next door with limited parking spots. There is also limited street parking. However, we strongly encourage guests to take advantage of ride shares to ensure safe travel.

👋When You Arrive

Look out for your spirited host wearing a red scarf and possibly wielding a flashing candy cane stick. Get ready to sign our event waiver before the trolley embarks promptly at departure time. Be prepared to show a valid ID verifying you are over the age of 21.

🍻BYOB

BYOB for the trolley, but ask your tour guide at the check-in table where you can store your drinks prior to boarding the trolley. Each host bar has a fantastic selection of additional spirits. If your drinks come in glass bottles, you are welcome to bring them onboard, however we ask that you pour the drink into a different non-glass container while on the trolley. We will provide you plastic cups that you can use.

Remember, no open containers outside the trolley. Beverages can be stored in personal-sized coolers (think: what can fit under an airline seat).  

🧣Attire

While the trolley and the bars are heated, we will stop at various locations around the city that are not. We recommend dressing in layers and bringing hats, scarves, and mittens so you can have an enjoyable experience as you get up close to the light displays at each stop.
