1. Newcastle
We are proud of Geordies and are thrilled to report that our hometown has again topped the table. Are we shocked? It’s not possible. Newcastle is Europe’s most popular stag party destination. It’s cheap, cheerful, friendly, and enjoyable to party on the weekends. You could spend your entire weekend in the city’s center, home to so many bars and pubs that you could almost go there every night. You can go on a stylish crawl down Grey Street or party like the Geordie Shore cast on the Diamond Strip. If you want to make your weekend memorable, you can hire the form. If you’re looking for the perfect Geordie party spot, book LNOF Honeypot House apartments in the middle of the legendary Bigg market. Newcastle offers a wide range of activities that will appeal to stags. Urban Axe Throwing is a favorite among our stags and Outdoor Karting. For more advice and activities, check out our Newcastle Stag Guide.
2. Liverpool
This Mersey paradise was first made famous by the Beatles. However, it has been a hit with stags for many years. The lively nightlife and the Scouse humor have kept them coming back. Liverpool, although it is vast, is very easy to navigate. You can drink your way around the city by purchasing a Mathew Street Bar Pass. Its location is an advantage, as it is only an hour from most places in the North. There are four train stations and John Lennon Airport. You won’t get bored in Liverpool, which boasts a wide range of activities like Gladiator Games and Race Day tickets. To learn more about this city, read our Liverpool Stag Guide.
3. Dublin
Dublin has been called one of the most popular party spots on Earth. The Guinness is like water, and there’s always a lot of laughter. Although it’s not cheap, especially down the Temple Bar, it’s affordable. There are many fun activities that you can do, such as sipping on a pint of black liquor or taking part in the Gaelic Games. You also have the option to choose where to lay your head after an exhausting day of partying with the Irish. ? For more activities in Dublin, check out our Stag Guide.
4. Prague
Prague is an iconic destination for stag parties that has been a favorite for over 30 years. It has risen in the rankings since covid restrictions were lifted. This stag party paradise boasts several reputable boozers selling cheap beer. The average pint is about PS1.18. Prague is the perfect place if you’ve ever dreamed of driving a tank or wrestling a roly poly stripper in a vat full of mud. You can even have the stag arrested in this ultimate prank. Prague is a top-notch stag destination that we have visited many times. If you don’t like wrestling a stripper, there are plenty of other activities, such as taking a bumper cruise or firing the stag arrests gun, which you would expect to see in Call of Duty. It’s easy to see why Prague has been a favorite destination for stags for so many years. You can read more about our Prague Stag Guide.
5. Benidorm
Benidorm has become more popular, with stags looking for fun in the sun. It’s a dazzlingly tacky place with a unique nightlife. This Spanish city is known for its infamous live sex and 6 am kick-out times. We need to find out how it does that. We are amazed that beer can be bought for as low as EUR1 per pint. It doesn’t matter when you call it a night. Just remember to have as much fun as possible. And remember, anything can be done here. You can do a lot of activities, from handcuffing a dwarf to having a barbecue with booze. LNOF visited Benidorm in summer. It was a wonderful weekend. We highly recommend go-karting, but be careful not to overdo it the night before. For more reasons it’s in our top 10, check out our Benidorm Stag Guide
6. Edinburgh
Edinburgh is an excellent place for hens. However, stags are falling in love with this charming city, which has become one of LNOF’s most popular locations. There’s plenty to love about Edinburgh – you can get dressed in a kilt and enjoy the Highland Games or the Go Ape Tree Top Adventure. Edinburgh is the place to be if you’re looking for a fun weekend with whiskey. A trip to Edinburgh’s bar cars will allow you to sample some of the finest bevies (we recommend a short journey around Princes Street), while tons of great activities will make your stag weekend unforgettable. To find out more, take a look at our Stag Guide Edinburgh.
7. Budapest
As George Ezra stated, Jewish Quarter is a treasure trove and an excellent destination for stag parties. It is one of Europe’s most beautiful places, and a cruise down River Danube is a must. It is also a vibrant capital city that offers everything one could ask for in an Eastern European setting. You can either go on a bar crawl through the city’s trendy Jewish Quarter or dance the night away in one of the city’s lively open-air nightclubs. You don’t have to get sweaty and hot with the locals. Instead, you can try some of the finest craft beers in the bloc. The war in Ukraine and Covid impacted bookings in Eastern Europe. However, Budapest and Prague were both able to return to the top 10. This is a testament to how unique this region is for stags. Plus, at PS1.40 per pint, you can make a lot more money here. To plan your weekend in Hungary, look at our Stag guide to Budapest.
8. Manchester
Manchester is the reason why stags go crazy for Manchester. The Hacienda was once the capital of clubbing, and the party has never stopped since. This hedonistic city has a wealth of bars, clubs, and music venues. Oasis and The Smiths, as well as acid house and Take That, are just a few of this city’s big hits. A stag weekend can be sounded by everything, from jazz bars to underground techno beats to swinging jazz bars. Many thrill-seeking activities will blow your socks, such as It’s a Knockout and Bubble Football. These all go down well with our stags. The hip Northern Quarter is home to many craft breweries, the football museum, and the football museum (where you may take a penalty for the original Wembley goal). If you’re looking for the perfect Supersonic city for the Charming Man to get married, this is it!
9. Amsterdam
It has been a popular stag destination for decades. You don’t need to be a stag doer if you want a peaceful weekend. Amsterdam is not for retiring, shy people. The city’s famous Red Light District is the heart of all the fun. It is rowdy, fun, and incredibly cool. Enjoy a wild bar crawl through the city’s Rembrandyplein. If you want to take a break from the hustle and bustle, visit a museum or enjoy the cafe culture. Our favorite? Condomerie has a great collection of condoms. Visit our guide to Amsterdam’s most hidden secrets to discover Amsterdam’s quirky side. Visit our guide to plan the perfect weekend in Amsterdam as a stag.
10. Bournemouth
The South Cost’s Costa Del Sol version, Bournemouth, has seen a massive increase in stay-at-home stags in recent years. With groups realizing that they don’t have to fly off to tan, they can take advantage of the conveniences of staying at home. This location offers everything you need for a stag weekend, including Bournemouth’s stunning beaches and central accommodation. There are also bouncing bars and a variety of other fun activities you can’t do in the North, such as clubbing, coasteering, and karting. AFC Bournemouth is now a Premier League team, so a visit to the footy might be just the thing to top off what could be a great few days on the coast.
