Weekend News

Here at Stag and Hen Birmingham not only do we like to give you insights into what can make a great Stag or Hen Party, we also like to ensure your weekend goes without a hitch. Every now and then something will be happening in the City that could affect your weekends festivities so we like you to know about it so to avoid any problems.

This weekend 19-21st October see's the return of The Bupa Great Birmingham Run. In its 2nd year with an expected 18,000 runners descending into Birmingham on Sunday 21st October it is bound to cause a bit of disruption if you are planning on getting out of Birmingham centre following your Birmingham Stag Weekend or Birmingham Hen Night. Passing by some of the most iconic sights in Birmingham, including The Bull Ring, The Cadbury's factory and Edgbaston cricket ground and finishing on Broad Street (somewhere after your Saturday night escapades you might be familiar with) this run really does effect most of the city. If your not in a rush to leave the city then why not pop down and cheer on some the runners, if screaming and cheering might just be a bit to much for your delicate head then have a look at the attached race route map so you can avoid the key areas and get back to own bed as quickly as possible.

Just a little something for the Hens

If you have any last minute bits to get or you really haven't had enough of wedding fayres or you just want to kill a bit of time before you head home then The Hotel la tour is holdings its wedding showcase this Sunday. Located on Albert Street in the city centre near to New Street Station this luxury 4* Hotel is worth a visit for a nice girly finish to your Birmingham Hen Weekend. And lets face it girls everyone loves a freebie.

Don't worry stags you've not been forgotten!

Not wanting to come across as only thinking about one side of our parties, there is of cause something going on this weekend for the guys. Should you want something to do prior to the nights festivities or something to help the hangover pass from Friday, Birmingham City take on Leicester City at St. Andrews kick off 3pm. Or if you haven't got any activities pre planned you can always get straight down to the pub to watch Saturdays games unfold. Our personal favorite being The Queens arms Newhall Street showing both Tottenham vs Chelsea at 12.45pm and Norwich vs Arsenal at 5.30pm.

We will aim to keep you posted whenever there is anything worth knowing going on in Birmingham.

Have a great weekend from all the team at Stag and Hen Birmingham
