Variations of Bachelor Party

It has also become common for a similar party to be held for the bride-to-be. This is known as a bachelorette party or hen night.

A tame version is the so-called Stag and Doe party, in which both the bride and groom attend.

UK

In the United Kingdom it is now common for the party to last for more than one evening, hence the increasing prevalence of the phrase "stag weekend". A spin off has been the growth of the Stag Weekend Industry in the UK with various companies taking the "hassle" out of the weekend.

In the UK, stag weekend trips are becoming mini-holidays with the groups taking part in various day time activities as well as the expected night out on the town and the inevitable strippers. Popular UK destinations include Blackpool, Brighton, Bournemouth, Newcastle, Nottingham and Edinburgh. There is now a growing trend for stags to go abroad, with Krakow, Dublin and Riga topping the list, followed by Prague, Vilnius, Amsterdam and Maastricht.
United States

In the United States, Las Vegas, South Beach (Miami) and Atlantic City are popular bachelor party destinations.

Australia

The groom's mates may, after all getting drunk, subject him to various humiliations and/or endurances, sometimes even in public, such as leaving him tied naked to a pole.

Canada


Canadian cities such as Montreal or Vancouver are popular bachelor party destinations due to their large number of strip clubs with "danse contact" (lap-dancing). The female equivalent of a stag party in Canada is often known as a "stagette" or "doe."

Malta


In Malta, the bachelor's male friends frequently take the bachelor out and get him drunk, then treat him to a night of jovial abuse. For example, it is common for the bachelor to end up naked and tied to things, such as monuments in roundabouts or the front door of his future mother-in-law.
