🔥 Top 10 Ideas in Chester for 2025
Horse Racing
Head to what is officially the world's oldest racecourse for a guaranteed good day out! Study the form of the runners and riders and try and secure a couple of extra quid for the beer kitty (or just kick back with a pint and enjoy the races).
Clay Shooting
Feel the weight of the double-bore Browning shotguns in your mitts before you take aim and blast up to 25 clays out of the sky. Who will be the group's top marksman and who should stick to Call of Duty?! Let's find out, shall we?!
Go Karting
You and the boys will get exclusive use of our 900-metre track as you hit speeds of up to 45 mph in your 160cc karts. There are four packages to choose from which all include a qualifying race before a final sprint!
Hovercraft Racing
If go karting is a bit 'ordinary' for your stag do, why don't we remove the wheels and throw in some inflatable carnage instead?! Yes, hovercraft racing is all sorts of chaos and a hilarious addition to any weekend in Chester.
Paintball
With WWI trenches, post-apocalyptic ruins, graveyards and many more game zones to host your epic battle, it's safe to say our Chester paintball site is up there with the best of them. Grab your semi-automatic weapons and get ready to paint the stag in this epic half-day session.
Boozy Bottomless Brunch
A lot of groups forget to book anywhere to eat on their big weekends away and end up walking the streets for hours trying to find somewhere to fit 14 guys at no notice. Don't be those guys! Our boozy bottomless brunch will not only fill you up but help get you in the mood to party. Winner!
Vodka Revs Package
Vodka Revs is a stag do institution. Head to this bouncing venue and be welcomed in with open arms as you enjoy a bottle of spirits and mixers to help fuel your outrageous dance moves. This is how you party on a big night out!
Bubble Football
Forget your classic 5-a-side, this is 5-a-side bounced on its head and volleyed into next week. Yes, you and the boys will suit up in a range of bubble suits and try to showcase your silky skills whilst being bashed about by your opponents.
Quad Biking
Hop aboard your 300cc quads and head off-road across 30 acres. From water hazards to rough terrain, tight hairpins to a load of other obstacles, you'll really put your driving skills to the ultimate test here.
Giant Skyswing
Plummet 80 feet and hit speeds of up to 60 mph on the UK's highest freefall skyswing. This is a real test of nerves and the ability to stomach a hangover in an activity that's bound to get the adrenaline pumping.
