20 Ideas for stag and hen events
Can’t decide how to celebrate your final fling?
Desperate to do something different but don’t know what?
Fear not – we’re just bursting with ideas guaranteed to make it a night to remember
Get Away From It All
1. If you’re an action person how about an activity weekend in the country? Stay in a country house hotel or activity centre that allows you to try your hand at anything from paint balling and tank driving to clay pigeon shooting and horse riding.
2. More and more hens – and stags – are getting a group of friends together for a week of fun in the sun. If you’re all beach babes check out some bargain hotspots: Ibiza and Aiya Napa in Cyprus are perfect for clubbers while southern Spain and the Canary Islands are perfect for partying and catching some rays.
3. Ever wanted to experience the delights of Paris, Amsterdam or Barcelona? Well now is the perfect opportunity. Scan the paper for late deals on flights and a weekend city break could cost a lot less than you think.
4. Get away from the crowds with a weekend on a barge. Cruise along the waterways in a narrowboat just big enough for al your best friends, partying as you go and mooring at all the waterside pubs along the way.
5. A booze cruise is a really fun way to spend a couple of days. Take a trip across the channel either by ferry or Euro tunnel, check out the beautiful beaches at Calais and Le Touquet before some wine and champagne tasting. If you’re really organised you can choose your wedding wines and bring them back at bargain prices.
A Night On The town
6. Comedy clubs are a popular choice for hen nights in particular. Comedians always love to pick on hen parties, and if you’re game for a laugh you’re guaranteed a night of girly giggles.
7. Love it or loathe it; a karaoke bar is the perfect way to get your party going with a swing.
8. Get dressed up big time for a night of clubbing into the small hours.
9. It’s show time! Choose from a classic musical to a Full Monty-style show – the choice is yours.
10. If you fancy a meal out with friends, look for a restaurant with a difference. Try to find one with a live band or an Elvis or Tom Jones impersonator and a dance floor.
The Party Weekender
11. Hire a cottage for the weekend and host a theme party where everyone has to dress up; serve food to fit in with your theme.
12. Book a B&B by the sea for the weekend; small one where you can take over the entire place is ideal. Try seaside resorts such as Brighton and Blackpool.
13. For all your entertainment needs on hand get down to a Center Parcs or Butlins. They offer plenty to do and see and are ideal for groups.
14. A murder mystery weekend can be loads of fun. Plenty of hotels run these events at weekends or you could organise your own.
15. Sleepover parties can be as much fun now as they were when you were seven.
A Day To Remember
16. Afternoon tea is a very civilised option. A trip to one of London’s top hotels such as The Ritz or The Waldorf would make it extra special. This is a particularly good choice if you want to invite mum and your prospective mother-in-law.
17. How about a day at the races? Check out local race dates at the nearest dog track or horse racing ground. There’s nothing like the excitement of betting to get your mates to mingle. Whoever wins can get the drinks in!
18. Amusement parks and fun fairs have something for everyone, from adrenaline pumping roller-coasters to merry-go-round rides.
19. Treat yourselves to a day of pampering with a trip to a health spa or Turkish steam bath. We all love beauty treatment.
20. Host a party in the park – a great idea for a summer’s day. Enjoy a champagne picnic and get everyone to bring some kind of game along such as rounders or a frisbee.
