Sober Hen and Stag parties are on the rise - here's our top picks on ways to celebrate π
Hen and stag parties are well known to be pretty wild β lots of drinking, tacky props, embarrassing games and even strippers. But these types of nights out are becoming less popular, with our research revealing a growing preference for sober or alcohol-reduced celebrations.
Over half of the people we surveyed (59%) think hen and stag parties can be just as enjoyable without heavy drinking, and over a third (35%) would prefer an outdoorsy and chilled vibe over traditional boozy celebrations.
Spa breaks, group staycations and immersive experiences are just some alternatives to a wild night out.
Spa days/hotels
