I know what you're thinking, but if you've never been, Birmingham is not a rat-infested, polluted pile of rubbish full of concrete buildings no one would want to visit. Cast those preconceived notions out the door for your own good! Do it now if you're trying to come up with a stag party location you and your buddies will never want to leave.

If you think Birmingham isn't a good place to visit, you've got it all wrong. Why the unfair reputation? Sure, the architecture isn't the greatest, but who goes to a stag or bachelor party to take in the local scenery? (Unless “scenery” also includes the local lasses). Birmingham is the perfect place for a stag do – a thriving cosmopolitan centre oozing with the best in pubs, nightlife, clubs, eateries, music, fashion, crazy locals – you name it! Immerse yourself in the local culture and the local beauties and you will soon find out just how wrong you were.

Birmingham is a city – the UK's second largest – that loves to party and have a good time. If you haven't put this place on your to-do list (ahem, no pun intended) write it down right now before it's too late – you've been missing out on the non-stop party scene that comes with every big city.

Colourful and full of new experiences, entertainment, and people at every turn you'll never sink into a stupor of boredom in this vibrant town. Delve into the modern and mainstream or sink your teeth into the alternative scene. Whatever floats your boat, mate. No judgment here. If you want to discuss the “fine” art of lap dancing over a pint of lip-smackingly good beer go ahead. Or if spending an afternoon paintballing with your friends before heading on over to the local pub is more to your liking do what you please. Compliments of Birmingham, of course.

Shops, cafes, parks and monuments are all over the place so from morning till late, late at night your brain, your eyes, your taste buds, your ears, and your nostrils will all receive more stimulation than one person can handle. And there are so many canals Birmingham has got Venice beat!

For a crazy stag party in Birmingham start off in the Arcadia Centre and then move on to some famous Wharfside Street institutions to end off the night in proper fashion. Down some spicy curry at one of the many curry houses scattered around town and top it all off with whatever you want – all for a reasonable price.
