Whenever you say the phrase "stag weekend" to a group of guys, it is practically a scientific fact that at least half of them will automatically think "Newcastle". This city is infamous for being one of the country’s top party destinations, and if we are being honest, it is a reputation that it definitely deserves.
Home to the Geordie Shore, friendly locals, and a compact city centre packed with bars, a Newcastle stag do is a rite of passage for any British groom. But that’s not all the "Toon" has to offer. It is a city of contrasts, where historic castles sit alongside modern glass bars, and tranquil quaysides are just a stone's throw from the rowdy Bigg Market.
Whether you are adrenaline junkies looking for off-road chaos, football fans wanting to be close to the hallowed turf of St James' Park, or just a group of lads looking for cheap trebles and a good time, Newcastle delivers every single time. It is consistently voted the number one party city in the UK for a reason.
To make organising your weekend as stress-free as possible, we have curated some incredible packages. These bundles combine your accommodation, nightlife, and top-rated activities into one easy booking, often saving you money compared to booking everything separately.
For the ultimate full-throttle weekend, check out The All Weekender. This package is designed to tick every box. It sorts you out with central accommodation and VIP nightlife entry—essential for getting large groups into the best clubs. Plus, it gets the lads laughing with a session of Zorb Football. It’s the perfect hangover cure: running around inside a giant inflatable ball and knocking your mates over is universally funny.
Alternatively, if you want to settle some scores, take a look at the Hunt The Stag Do package. This includes two nights' stay, VIP nightlife, and a paintballing session. We all know that paintball is a stag classic, and this package ensures the groom usually ends up looking like a rainbow by the end of the day!
What is a weekend away without somewhere epic to crash? Luckily, when arranging a Newcastle stag weekend, there’s no shortage of options. From budget-friendly hostels right in the city centre to luxury pads that would make a footballer jealous, we have it all.
For many groups, standard hotels just don't cut it. You want your own private space to party, play games, and recover without worrying about waking up the guests next door. That’s why our Party Houses are the top choice.
The Plush Party House is a stunning option for groups who want a bit of luxury. Featuring stylish interiors and state-of-the-art hot tubs, it gives you a VIP base for your pre-drinks. It’s perfect for groups who want to start the party at home before heading out.
If you prefer to be away from the hustle and bustle during the day, the Tranquil Escape offers a rural retreat just outside the city. It’s the perfect way to recover in peace and quiet before heading back into the chaos of the city centre at night.
A Newcastle stag do can easily be filled with a huge number of possible activities – the choice is very much in your hands. Some of the most popular things to do tend to be vehicle-related because, after all, who wouldn’t want to be behind the wheel of an adrenaline-fuelled off-road vehicle?
There are plenty to choose from, with Quad Biking, Rage Buggies, and 4x4 Off-Road Driving all high on the popularity list. The terrain around Newcastle is rugged and muddy, making it perfect for tearing up the track and seeing who really is the best driver in the group (and who drives like your grandma).
That’s not all Newcastle has to offer though – far from it. The number of available options is staggering. You can try your hand at Clay Pigeon Shooting, sophisticated Whiskey Tasting, or competitive Dodgeball.
If you want something a bit different, why not try a Treasure Hunt to explore the city, or a high-stakes Poker Tournament to test your bluffing skills? If you are struggling to decide what to do, read our guide on the 10 Essential Newcastle Stag Do Activities for some inspiration and a list of the absolute must-dos.
You can't survive on beer alone (though some have tried). There is a great selection of restaurants throughout Newcastle – both in the city centre and on the Quayside. Wherever you are staying and whatever you are doing, you won’t find it hard to get a good meal.
It’s not just big chain restaurants either; Newcastle has some of the most amazing local eateries you’ve ever encountered. From authentic Indian curries to hearty Italians, any cuisine you can imagine is served here. And if you want to take your eating habits one step further, then the Gut Buster Challenge is always around for you. Tackle a giant burger or pizza in a true "Man Vs Food" style challenge to earn eternal glory (and probably a stomach ache) among your mates.
We’ve touched on the nightlife of a Newcastle stag party a few times, but it’s worth reiterating just how good it is. Apart from anything else, it’s the variety of nightspots available that really makes it the best in the UK.
The city is famous for its distinct nightlife "zones." You have the Bigg Market for rowdy, no-nonsense fun; the Diamond Strip for high-end cocktails and glamour; and the Quayside for bars with a view.
You can take it as read that Newcastle has some of the best pubs, bars, and clubs in the country. It also has plenty of Gentlemen’s Clubs that are infamous, as well as Bierkellers if you want steins and bench-dancing.
Don't just take our word for it. Check out our Real Stag Diary, My Newcastle Stag Weekend, to read a first-hand review of what a night out in the Toon is really like—from the legendary "trebles bars" (three shots of vodka for the price of one!) to the late-night kebabs.
Fancy a Pub Crawl Treasure Hunt where you can learn a little something, compete with your mates, and enjoy a huge array of drinks? We can arrange that. Want to take part in a Guided Bar Crawl where our local guides take you around all the best drinking spots so you don't get stuck in tourist traps? Of course you do – and that’s something that we can always offer.
Getting to a stag do is always a tricky plan. For some, it’s best to drive; for others, the train is the way forward. Luckily, Newcastle has a large array of options to get you there. It is easily accessible by road via the A1, and by rail on the fast East Coast line. With a local international airport and a ferry port as well, you can get there by plane or even boat depending on where you are travelling from.
Whether or not you choose to drive to get to your Newcastle stag do, you won’t want to be getting behind the wheel once you are there! Luckily, Newcastle is a city with plenty of public transport. With buses and the excellent Metro system both running throughout the day and night, you’ll have no problem getting to or from anywhere you want to be. Taxis are also plentiful and generally cheaper than in the south.
With all of this excitement going on, it’s quite easy to see why Newcastle is such a well-loved option for anyone’s last weekend of freedom. You’ll never be bored, you’ll never be sad, and you’ll never experience anything like it again once it’s over – so let us know what you’d like to get up to and we’ll make sure everything runs absolutely perfectly.
