This month Virgin Trains are launching a brand new ‘large group’ product which should make getting to your stag party that little bit easier and also save your whole group some extra cash. From Monday 22nd June there will be new levels of fares on standard and first class for groups of 10 people or more. Passengers travelling in large groups will be benefiting from greater flexibility and cheaper tickets making a stag party in the UK even more appealing.

Jim Rowe, Senior Communications Manager for Virgin Trains, says: “In a difficult economic climate it is perhaps not surprising that people are choosing not to travel abroad so much for their stag and hen parties.
Something for everyone “There is something for everyone in the UK and with the Virgin Trains new West Coast timetable now in place with more frequent off peak services and cheap tickets, travelling by train really is the ideal option. Additionally, if tickets are booked well in advance of departure date they are less expensive so you may even be able to take advantage of the brand new menu in first class!”

Save up to 70% on trains group travel

Travelling with ten or more can cut the cost of your journey significantly. For example, a return trip to and from Liverpool to London normally costs around £62.60 per person*, but with a group travel ticket, it only costs £18.00 per person – that’s a saving of 67 percent! Virgin Train tickets
