Meet Luke, StagWeb's Birmingham Specialist.

Luke has been helping guys party in the UK's Second City since 2011 and is across the latest and greatest stag offerings.

If you need some advice on planning a big weekend in Birmingham or want to know more about how StagWeb works, give Luke a ring on 01225 474200 (Mon-Fri 8.30-17.30) and he will be more than happy to advise.

Luke's Top Tip for Birmingham

"I'd encourage anyone heading to Birmingham to stay centrally, so you don't have to splash out on taxis or faff about trying to get public transport just to get to the party hotspots."

🍺 Luke's Night Out Top Tip

"Broad Street is the man nightlife hub, but if you want to see an alternative side to Birmingham, I'd recommend the pubs and bars in Digbeth - it's a real up-and-coming area with loads of great places to grab a pint."

"As well as Luke, we have a fantastic team of stag experts working behind the scenes to bring you the very best stag parties about. Check us out and find out why 700,000 have partied with us!"

Where to Go on Your Birmingham Stag Night

Broad Street

It's the place to head for a night out in Birmingham. The half-mile street is packed with bars and clubs, so you can bounce from venue to venue without having to travel much. Winner!

The Jewellery Quarter

The Jewellery Quarter is full of trendy bars and eateries to start a big night out. Watch out, this area is on the pricey side, so maybe pre-drink elsewhere.

The Southside

A more wallet-friendly option. With live music, top DJs, and great food, you're guaranteed a great night Southside.

Digbeth

Pop-up street food markets, cool graffiti, and some of the city's best nightlife -  check out these renovated warehouses that have been converted nightclubs, such as the Custard Factory or the Institute.

Brindley Place

Waterside bars, lively beer gardens, cracking restaurants, cocktail lounges, a German beer hall, and live music - Brindley Place is perfect for refined pints. Do we need to say anymore?

Top Birmingham Pubs, Bars & Clubs

F1 Arcade

If the groom is a massive F1 fan, you simply have to head to this cracking F1-themed venue. They have high-tech racing simulators for you to try, plus you can watch the racing with other like-minded petrolheads.

Where: 2 Chamberlain Sq, B3 3AX

Rosies Nightclub

This stag and hen-friendly venue boasts five themed rooms with their own different vibes, so you can find the one that's right for you.

Where: 259-262 Broad St, B1 2HF

Hockley Social Club

Hockley Social is massive. This cracking bar is housed in a 10,000-square-foot former printing factory, so there's plenty of room for you and the boys to fit in.

Where: 60 Hampton St, B19 3LU

Popworld

Popworld is iconic and anyone who pretends not to love it is lying to you (and themselves). It's a guaranteed good night in the heart of Birmingham's party district.

Where: 55 Broad St, B1 2HJ

Tunnel Club

Set under a railway line, this club has a load of DJs and live music passing through. It's open from 10 pm to 4 am on Fridays and Saturdays.

Where: Livery St, B3 1HL

The Victoria

A cracking pub with loads of entertainment. The Victoria has very good beer and a fantastic atmosphere to match.

Where: 48 John Bright St, B1 1BN

Golf Fang

This is crazy golf taken to new psychedelic levels. Enjoy good drinks and a hip hop soundtrack as you make your way around 18 seriously crazy holes.

Where: The Custard Factory, Gibb St, Deritend, B9 4AA

Dead Wax Digbeth

The place to head for beer lovers. With an ever-changing range of craft ales, plus live music and DJ sets, Dead Wax is dead good.

Where: 28 Adderley St, B9 4ED

The Best Time to Go

According to our 2023 stats, 58% of stags who partied with StagWeb went to Birmingham in May and June.

Why?

Most weddings take place in the summer, so May and June give the groom plenty of time to rest up before the big day.

As well as this, the UK weather is much better in these months, plus schools are still in session, so you don't need to worry about the summer price hikes.

Bring on the beer gardens!

How Long Do People Go For?

63% went to Birmingham for 3 days (2 nights), which is about right if you ask us.

It doesn't take too long to travel to Birmingham no matter what part of the country you're heading there from, so you don't need to extend your stay for that.

Also, in three days, you'll be able to tackle all the awesome activities, conquer the nightlife, and explore the best of the city.

Ideal.

How Soon Do People Book?

Last year, guys heading to Birmingham booked three months before they were due to go.

That's actually a little later than the average, which is four months according to our end-of-year stats.

We'd always recommend booking as early as possible as not only are you less likely to miss out on your chosen events, but things are generally cheaper the sooner you get them booked.

So, it literally pays to get planning, gents!

Where to Stay in Birmingham

Our stag-friendly Birmingham accommodation options are all central, so you won't need to fork out for expensive taxis just to get to where the party is at.

Plus, the key term above is 'stag-friendly' - not every hotel in Birmingham will be, so be sure to book it through us to avoid any hassle.

Check out how easy it is to get to Birmingham...

Train - Getting to Birmingham on the train is a breeze. Birmingham New Street is located slap bang in the centre of the city, so you'll be right in the heart of the action as soon as you alight. Get your tickets or check pricing now at the Trainline.

Car - Carpooling is a cheap and easy way to get to Brum. Be sure to check the parking situation with your accommodation beforehand to avoid any slip-ups or check Parkopedia for the nearest car parks if it doesn't have any.

Plane - If any of the lads need to fly in, Birmingham Airport is located 13.6 miles from the city centre, and there are plenty of buses and taxis that will take you. Visit the Birmingham Airport website for the latest info.

Tips On Getting Around Birmingham

Walking - For such a large city, Birmingham is easily walkable. It's definitely the best way to explore and stumble across some great bars if you're new to it. If you do need to get further afield, you could always look at alternative options below.

Train - Birmingham has multiple train stations spread across the city, so if you are staying further out or need to get to an activity on the edge of town, it's worth checking whether a train is a good option.

Bus - The bus network in Birmingham is simple to use, and all-day tickets are as little as £4.50. Can't argue with that.

Tram - Trams conveniently connect all the key areas around the city centre, so it's an excellent way to explore with the lads. Let the tram do the travelling, and you guys handle the drinking.

Taxi - Split between a group, the price isn't too bad. Uber also operates in the city, so be sure to download the app before you go.
