I asked this 6 years ago for a stag week....

Now I'm best man and hopefully this will work out better than last time lol.

Last time was week in Ibiza and it good but cringeworthy - like Blackpool on steroids!

Where are the places to go now?

It will be a long weekend.
 
AFAIK it is mid 30s, mainly low office staff with someone in the army suggesting Chester or bath, and a mate in his 50s who keeps harping on about ibiza, ibiza (but he wants to live there etc).

Done 2 stags in Blackpool and one in London. The Blackpool ones were crap and the London one was good but expensive.
 
What do people usually do on a stag do besides drinking? What activities?

Paintballing is out. I was thinking something like karting or horse racing etc.

I hate organising this because I have no bloody idea! Lol
 
I'm in the process of organising one myself. What kind of people are going? What are they into? What is your stag into? What can they afford? - There are a fair few activities which won't single out people for not being very "skilled" at anything. I also don't want to organise too much and let things happen naturally, no day / night that is too planned has ever been fun imo.

It's the money limitations because I don't actually know whose invited si I can't book anything until I get definite numbers and answers. I think it's mainly office people, mostly in thirties. Stag is into motorbikes but no one else really is I don't think. I'm just thinking have a laugh in the day, meal, drinks, Hotel then maybe repeat next day? I don't actually know anybody apart from the stag really lol.
 
Right, Berlin last weekend.

Chilli sauce activities were awful. The bar "guide" was shocking - some Russian girl with her fella who appeared and left often. The second night we binned her and did our own thing. The strip club was shocking also.

However...when we did our own thing it was brilliant - club Havana was amazing, people dancing and dressed like they don't care, we had a great time. Luckily bumped into a load of American student girls...turned out to be a great night.

In summary...

Positive

Beers.
Good clubs.
Good looking women.
Reasonable cost
Beer tour on horse/cart
History

Negative

Far too spread out - taxi everywhere
Cold/wet
Germans don't really like the British.
Some bars won't let you in/say private function. Baring in mind we were all professionals in our 20's/30's with a couple of k in cash between us, it was rather frustrating.

I think somewhere with a nightlife centre is better, I.e prague. However we had a great time.

Cheers for the report back. :)

It's taken a turn....

1 person can't make the date.
3 can't make the Friday ruling out anywhere overseas.
So that's about 6 on Friday with 10 possible on Saturday.

This is an absolute nightmare to sort!

So far all I've got is:
Possibly party bus to Birmingham - only 30miles away though...
Meal out on Broad Street
Hit the pubs on Broad Street, maybe casinos, clubs etc.
Brunch then catch train back Sunday.

A pretty crap affair tbh. If it was down to me a 3 day weekend in Prague but only 6 maybe could make it.
