Kraków or Warsaw? The seaside or the mountains? Choosing the city for a stag party is the best man’s first big decision – and everything else depends on it: getting the crew there, accommodation, clubs and daytime activities.
We organise bumper ball matches in 18 Polish cities, so we know them both from the pitch and from the nightlife side. If you’re wondering where to go for a stag party in Poland, here are 8 destinations we recommend – with tips on what to do at night and how to start the day.
How to Choose a City for a Stag Party
- Getting there – if your crew is travelling from different places or from abroad, pick a city with good flight and rail connections.
- Vibe – a big city with clubs until dawn, laid-back seaside fun or a mountain house with a sauna?
- Season – the Tricity is at its best in summer, while Szczyrk has its charm in both winter and summer.
- A daytime activity – the night isn’t everything. A match in inflatable balls gets the crew going and gives you the first stories to tell over dinner.
8 Cities for a Stag Party in Poland
1. Kraków
Kraków draws stag groups from all over Poland and abroad. In the evening the clubs around the Main Market Square and the bars of Kazimierz rule the night, and a party on a tram (Tram Party) or a boat (Boat Party) is a great way to kick things off. By day: a bumper ball match in Kraków.
2. Warsaw
The capital is easy to reach from anywhere, and the choice of venues is huge: clubs in Śródmieście, bars in Powiśle and, in summer, the riverside boulevards along the Vistula that party until dawn. By day: a bumper ball match in Warsaw.
3. Wrocław
In the evening life revolves around the Market Square and plac Solny, the bars on Ruska Street and in Pasaż Niepolda, and in summer also along the Oder – on the boulevards and Słodowa Island. Between activities you can go hunting for Wrocław’s famous dwarf statues. By day: a bumper ball match in Wrocław.
4. Tricity – Gdańsk, Sopot, Gdynia
Gdańsk’s port atmosphere, Sopot’s Monte Cassino street (Monciak) and pier, and in summer the beach, where a match in the balls turns into an acrobatics show. Gdańsk also tempts with Długie Pobrzeże and clubs in the former shipyard area. By day: a match in Gdańsk, Sopot or Gdynia.
5. Poznań
The townhouses around the Old Market Square hide dozens of pubs, bars and clubs, and the next venue is only a few steps away. The day after, you can recover at Termy Maltańskie. By day: a bumper ball match in Poznań.
6. Łódź
The heart of the nightlife is Piotrkowska Street – several kilometres of bars, pubs and clubs. For a change, check out OFF Piotrkowska with its bars in former factory halls, or have dinner near Manufaktura. By day: a bumper ball match in Łódź.
7. Katowice
After dark, Mariacka Street turns into a promenade full of pubs and bars, and the clubs in the centre play until morning. The city is very well connected, and fans of atmospheric spots can stroll around the red-brick Nikiszowiec district. By day: a bumper ball match in Katowice.
8. Szczyrk
An option for crews who prefer a mountain house to a club dance floor: a barbecue, a sauna, an evening by the fireplace, ski slopes in winter and Silesian Beskids trails in summer. By day: a bumper ball match in Szczyrk – everyone plays at once, whatever their fitness.
A Universal Stag Weekend Plan
