24 Years. Conquered It All.
Financial crashes. Airline collapses. Brexit. COVID. Volcanoes.
Since 2002, here at StagWeb, we've organised thousands of stag weekends across the UK and Europe.
In that time, the world has thrown more than a few curveballs at us... but through it all, we kept delivering exceptional stag weekends.
Not because we got lucky, but because we're built to last!
If you're planning a weekend now, you can send us a free stag enquiry and see what 24 years of experience looks like in practice.
Why This Matters When Booking Your Stag Do
You're not buying a t-shirt. You're booking accommodation, flights, venues, deposits and experiences months in advance. Stability matters.
When you book with a 24-year-old company, you benefit from:
- Financial resilience
- Established supplier relationships
- Crisis-handling experience
- Operational depth
- Real contingency planning
That's the difference between a company that's new to the market... and one that has helped shape it.
24 Years Adapting & Thriving
Here's a snapshot of how we've navigated major industry events since 2002.

2010 - Icelandic Volcano

Impact: Stag weekends abroad thrown into chaos.
What we did: Reworked itineraries, coordinated directly with suppliers and ensured affected groups were supported every step of the way.
2016 - Brexit

"Amazing weekend and great work by StagWeb when our accommodation was cancelled due to COVID 48 hours before my stag. Ellie went above and beyond to get everything sorted. Would definitely recommend."
2022-2024 - Venue Closures & Industry Contraction
Hospitality tightened. Venues shut. Suppliers reduced capacity.
What we did:
- Rebuilt supplier networks

We're not a website run from a laptop.
We're an established travel operator with systems, infrastructure and scar tissue.
The Advantage of 24 Years
What does longevity actually give you as an organiser?
1. Negotiating Power
Long-term supplier relationships create leverage - and leverage creates reliability.
