LAMBERTVILLE, N.J. — Revolutionary Crawls & Events, the original creators of the Revolutionary Pub Crawl, are once again blending spirits with the spirit of ’76.

What began in 2016 as part of the Lambertville–New Hope Winter Festival has since evolved into a series of immersive historical pub crawl experiences that now stretch across the Delaware River Towns and beyond.

Much more than just a pub crawl, Revolutionary Crawls & Events offer a living history experience, where participants step into the past alongside professional Revolutionary War reenactors.

“Our events are designed to be immersive experiences that will be remembered for a long time - not only for how fun they are, but also for how educational," says Marianne Rosato, founder of the event. "By combining professional historical reenactors to do the storytelling with the local fare and craft drinks at nearby hotspots, we're keeping the spirit of the revolution, alive in a way the connects people to the past, while introducing them to local hotspots they may not have experienced yet."

Each event features multiple tavern stops, costumed performers, and a unique narrative based on real Revolutionary events that occurred in or near the town. Whether you’re a history buff, a fan of local craft brews, or just looking for a great time, Revolutionary Crawls & Events offers something truly unforgettable.
