Sport mad stags rejoice! Cork is a premium destination for any active, heart pumping stag party. With everything from Football Match Day Tickets and a traditional day of Gaelic Games to a laid back game of Golfing or a classic game of 5 A Side, Cork has got competitive stags covered! Distillery Tours and Health Spas promise to keep chilled out stags busy if Fast and Furious Go Karting or stag vs. stag Paintballing warfare doesn't take your fancy.
So, you’ve chosen Cork as your stag party destination? A very good choice. Now, you need to know where all the best bars are at. In Cork, you’re never far from a pint. It’s a compact town so getting around is easy. Pubs are everywhere and always a good shout for a place to hunker down after a wild day or to get your stag evening started.
Oliver Plunkett Street is famed for its awesome pubs. Welcome to your new favourite place to drink. It’s bursting with character and the friendly locals can point you to the best spots. The quirk-factor is heavy, but you know no one does a pub better than the Irish.
The Grand Parade area is a step up in price, but also sophistication with piano bars and sleek cocktail joints. Stags will love it here as you get to taste the treats of Ireland in a modern, refined environment.
"If it's drowning you're after, don't torment yourself with shallow water."
- Irish Drinking Proverb.
While Cork is loaded with great places to grab a pint, Barrack Street is far and away the best in the city. The Barrack Street Challenge, an epic pub crawl through the street's many watering holes, is a famous local pub crawl that'll test any stag to his limit.
No trip to Cork is complete without kissing the world famous Blarney Stone. Said to bestow the powers of persuasiveness upon those who kiss it (a useful weapon in any stag's arsenal), this iconic tradition is great for a laugh so long as you've got a head for heights!
Cork is known as the "Rebel County" for its activity in the War of Independence.
Sydney harbour is the only harbour in the world bigger than Cork's.
Football hard man Roy Keane was born in Cork, but don't let that scare you away.
18th Century Cork's butter market was the world's largest (we're spreading thin here!).
Eats - It might not sound great, but Cork is known for its packet and tripe, an Irish form of black pudding served with tripe.
Drinks - If Dublin is known for the Guinness, Cork should be known for Murphy's. A smoother, less in your face stout, Murphy's has been the best pint in Cork for 150 years.
Cork's city is entirely walkable making any use of the city's bus network almost completely needless. Save some cash for a taxi to ferry you home after the ultimate stag night out in Cork.
Of course if you're in a hurry or want to save your feet for the dad dancing later, Cork has a 330 strong system of Boris Bikes available for renting and riding around the city.
"The jacks" - The toilets.
"Arseways" - Gone the wrong way.
"Put the heart crossways" - Cause a scare.
"Pint of Gat" - Guinness.
"The fear" - Hangover.

Cork isn't far from good old Blighty and therefore tends to experience a similar climate, so whether you visit in June or January, bringing along a brolly is always a good plan! Although there may not be wall to wall sunshine in summer and chilly climes in winter, whenever you visit for your Cork stag weekend, you most certainly won't be disappointed when it comes to events. In November, enjoy the Cork Film Festival which shows new and old, mainstream and indie cinema every year, as well as workshops and appearances from big names in the industry. Over December, the festive spirit gets going with A Cork Christmas Celebration, which attracts over 150,000 people every year with a giant ferris wheel, great local produce for sale and a vintage carousel as well as cracking Christmas lights. If you're fans of cinema and high-brow culture, be sure to check out the trendy French Film Festival in March as well as the St Patrick's Festival, for some slightly less high-brow ‘culture' perhaps. If you're around in June, don't miss the Cork Midsummer Festival which claims to ‘bring the world to Cork and show Cork to the world'. It's one of Ireland's leading international arts festivals with many varied acts and performances - well worth a look!
