🔥 Top 10 Ideas in Cologne for 2025
Football Spectating
Footy-loving stags shouldn't pass up the chance to watch a European game on their big weekend away. FC Koln fans are a passionate bunch, so expect the atmosphere to be top-drawer. You can also enjoy a beer in view of the pitch (winner!).
Nurburgring Hot Lap
One of the most iconic racetracks in the world! If the groom is a petrolhead, be sure to add a Nurburgring hot lap to your itinerary. A professional driver will jump behind the wheel as you and the guys strap in for the ride of your lives.
Go Karting
If you want to simulate your own German Grand Prix, now's your chance! Battle it out across this 400-metre indoor track as you try and find the group's Michael Stag-macher or Max Ver-stag-gen! You'll go head-to-head in qualifying before a 30-minute race.
Paintballing
200 paintballs each. A 2000-metre paintball arena. 2 hours of carnage... the perfect stag activity! Crank up the chaos on the groom's Cologne weekender as you give him a little wedding makeover at our epic paintball site.
Brewery Tour
German beer is elite, and it would be rude not to try some straight from the source when you're in Cologne. Head behind the scenes of a cracking brewery as you get a guided tour with a delicious beer to finish.
Go Karting Outdoor
This outdoor go-kart track is immense. Get behind the wheel of your Evo 5 karts and see if you conquer this fast-paced 710-metre circuit. You'll race in a Grand Prix format with up to 22 karts battling it out at once.
Beer Coach
A horse-drawn coach packed with twenty litres of tasty beer... what's not to love?! Yes, hop aboard your very own mobile pub and take to the not-so-mean streets of Cologne in style. A professional driver will do the steering so you and the boys can focus on the drinking.
Party Boat
The perfect way to start the party! Set sail aboard a bouncing party boat for four hours of German beers and questionable dance moves. You'll get back on dry land at about 11.30 pm - just in time to head to a club.
Bavarian Feast
Why would you go all the way to Germany only to fuel up on all those fast-food chains you get back in the UK?! Head for a traditional Bavarian Feast and enjoy a true taste of Germany with two hours of good food and great beer.
Glow Golf
Glow Golf is crazy golf with neon lights and crazy sights. You and the boys will battle it out over a range of chaotic holes to crown the Stag Golfing Champ.
