The Best Time to Go
According to our stats, Glasgow is a prime stag destination all year round, with May and August being the two most preferred months for a Glasgow stag do in 2024.
And this adds up as it's the best time of year, weather-wise - Hello, Beer Gardens! - plus all the students will have gone home, so the nights out should be a slightly older crowd.
How Long Do People Go For?
According to our 2024 stats, 49% of the groups that went to Glasgow last year visited for 1 and 2 days, and 51% visited for 3 and 4 days.
You probably don't need to stay any longer, unless you're looking to maximise a Bank Holiday weekend, as two nights should give you enough time to take on a load of activities and enjoy a couple of nights on the town.
How Soon Do People Book?
Guys heading here with us last year booked, on average, a little over two months before they were due to go, which is cutting it a bit fine if you ask us.
You want to book as early as you can to secure cheaper rates and guarantee better availability for your hotel and activities.
Where to Stay in Glasgow
From central apartments to a range of 2- to 4-star hotels, we've got plenty of Glasgow stag accommodation suitable for all groups.
With Glasgow, we'd always recommend staying as close to the centre as possible to avoid having to faff about with public transport or waste money getting expensive taxis everywhere.
