It’s common knowledge that the Baltic states are party havens, so you know your stag weekend to Vilnius is sorted with solid gold establishments in all the best areas of the city.
Stikliu g. street has a sophisticated run of bars and relaxed hangouts for chilled evenings or a spot of day drinking. Craft beer is really taking off in the Lithuanian capital, so a pint is never far away wherever you are in the city!
Old Town is easy to explore on foot and makes for ideal bar crawl territory if you want to take in some sights as you drink. Here you’ll find nightclubs from the cool to the crazy so there are venues for every stag’s party needs!
"A man without a beard is like bread without a crust."
- Lithuanian proverb
The coolest bars, funkiest hangouts, best restaurants and craziest nightclubs are all in the Old Town. It's easy to get round on foot so no squeezing everyone into taxis and with StagWeb all our Vilnius stag hotels are within easy walking distance so the best action is right on your doorstep.
Uzupis, or the self-declared Republic of Uzupis is a mad, bohemian area of the city's old town that has its own unofficial government and constitution. Its residents are a blend of artists and 21st century hippies. The bars are as mad as the constitution which includes No.37 'Everyone has the right to have no rights.'
Forget the Easter Bunny, in Lithuania treats are delivered by the Easter Granny.
The Republic of Uzupis in Vilnius replaced a Communist statue with one of rock legend Frank Zappa.

Eats - Not just a great place to eat, this is a great place to be, friendly crowd, live music, it just happens to be our No1 choice for feeding in the lovely city, stag sized portions of simple pub grub done really well.
Didžioji str. 28, Vilnius
Drinks - Beer. Vilnius really is all about the beer with hundreds of microbreweries. In fact it seems every bar has it's own brew which makes pub crawls epic! If you're going short be careful of '999' which is like the Devil’s mouthwash which is strong enough to melt metal and knees (which is why you'll have to crawl home).
You won't want to go much further than Vilnius' old town, which is easily walked. However, with bus and trolleybus tickets costing a mere €1 why waste your energy?
Vilnius has its very own Boris Johnson inspired Cyclocity public bikes, as well as a number of cycle lanes, so if you're in a hurry or fancy working off the nagging hangovers with a bit of exercise, cycling in Vilnius is a great option.
"Labas" - Hi.
"Kuris būdas artimiausio baro?" - Which way to the nearest bar?

You've heard of Amsterdam, you've heard of Prague and you've done Benidorm and Magaluf so many times you've lost count - enter Vilnius. The capital city of Lithuania is a relative newcomer to the weekend break stage and it's fast becoming one of our most popular destinations in Europe! Just a short two and a half hour flight away from Blighty and into the Baltics, you'll be transported to a once in a lifetime stag do that you and your mates most definitely won't be forgetting in a hurry. Vilnius is a real party city where clubs stay open well into the early hours of the morning - and with over 60 of them, you certainly won't be short of top quality entertainment! It's one of the most original and unique choices around for a central European city break since there's a huge amount to do... and because it's still up-and-coming, it remains excellent value with food and drinks a mere fraction of UK prices. Vilnius is one of our top picks in Europe!
We'll be frank here, temperatures get pretty arctic in winter, so although a Vilnius stag do is still great in the chillier months, we'd recommend waiting it out until summer for the best nightlife, sunnier climes - and a far higher likelihood of getting back home with all your necessary parts still attached! Often, weather is blazing hot in summer and you'll definitely be able to top up your tan whilst wandering about the streets in blazing 30 degree heat. Restaurants, bars and cafes take everything outdoors during the summer and there's an electric party buzz in the air as both tourists and locals alike get ready to party together. If you're around in the late summer, the Vilnius City Carnival is definitely an unmissable event. They welcome huge names every year such as Chicane, Elton John and Bjork. For the big kid in you, the International Festival of Animated Cartoons, or 'Tindirindis', comes to town in November. All across the city, events featuring non-commercial cartoons of all varieties are played out and, also in November, Vilnius is host to a totally unique event which is perfect for busting those stag weekend hangovers - a breakfast music festival which takes place only in the morning! Listen to live music over a cup of coffee and the day's papers from 7.30am.
Having a good idea of where everything goes down on your Vilnius stag do is an essential before you even board the aeroplane and luckily, we've got the city's hotspots sorted. The Old Town is arguably the very nicest part of the city and the Gate of Dawn Chapel lies above it, giving the entire area a look of magic. The historic streets here are lined with a wide variety of great restaurants, bars and cafes and it seriously can't be missed! The area around the university, close to the river, is also one of the best places to be particularly at night and there's always something going on at the twist and turn of every street corner. If you've got the river in sight, you can be sure there'll be signs of life!
Okay, so not many people outside of the Latvian borders use this language and just about everyone in Vilnius speaks amazing English, but learning a few phrases is good fun and will raise a smile with the tourist-weary locals when you drop them into a (mostly English) conversation.

My name is - Mano vardas
Cheers - Sveikatą!
Goodbye - Viso gero
Sorry - Atleiskite!
Thank-you - Ačiu
Where are the toilets? - Kur yra tualetas?

My hovercraft is full of eels - Mano laivas su oro pagalve pilnas ungurių (Only Monty Python fans will understand.)
As you can probably tell, Vilnius can really stand alone as a top getaway destination and is a major player in the European stag do chart. However, even organising a trip to the pub with all your mates can be more difficult than a major military operation, so when flights, hotels, passports and vital documents get involved, it's hardly surprising that many of even the bravest souls run in terror at the first mention.
