StagWeb Stag Weekends Blog

If your stag weekend is likely to be less than 10 people then some activities are definitely better than others. At StagWeb we cater for groups from 6 stags upwards, though we have done smaller by special arrangement. Unlike the honeymoon in terms of stag groups size doesn’t necessarily matter, it’s all about the performance.

The choice of activities differs slightly between the UK and Europe, often with Europe catering well for smaller groups even on some of the more exciting activities.

So we repeat, do not lose heart because size doesn’t have to be restrictive and in some cases it can give you the flexibility you need to really load the weekend with additional stag activities that you might not otherwise do, believe it or not many smaller groups take advantage of cultural offerings and city guides when they’re abroad. In the UK they might squeeze in a little “we won’t tell anyone” pampering. Bottom line is you can still do plenty, even taking on the white label activities if you’ve got the budget and are prepared to pay more, but if you want to keep it keen and great value the following 22 activities will give you some ideas to start with:

1. 4×4 off road driving (Brighton, Riga, Vilnius)
2. brewery tour & lunch (Prague)
3. city tour (Barcelona, Budapest, Prague, Rome)

Summers only round the corner now lads, and the weather we’ve been having lately has been brilliant! So if you’re looking for a UK based stag weekend now’s the best time to get it sorted. Missing out on that all important activity you’ve been eyeing up for a couple of weeks could be the downfall to your stag party, the best thing to do is at least secure your activities and accommodation now before it’s all booked up in UK summer peak times.

We’ve all been and experienced missing out on something so imagine it like this, you wake up, want to get the best deck chairs by the pool, but someone’s already got down before you and put there bloody towel down first! It’s simple; if you got in earlier you’d be happy as Larry! The same thing kind of applies to the most popular activities.

Here are some of the classic activities which will sure to make your summer stag weekends go off with a bang!:
