It’s always the case that whenever a Hen Do is being discussed, someone mentions Liverpool as a possible destination, and there’s very good reason for that indeed. Liverpool hen weekends are consistently well-received, with a plentiful supply of activities, accommodation and nightlife available throughout the city – as well as all of its cultural significance, most obviously the fact that it’s the birthplace of the Beatles.
But while a cultural location may be important for some groups, the key things for any girls weekend away is to ensure that your destination is providing everything you could possibly want for the biggest party of your lives. As the fifth most visited city in the UK, you can easily tell that Liverpool is appealing to almost everyone, and I’m here to tell you that Hen parties are a definite speciality of this beautiful city.
I’m sure that you’ll all want to “Come Together” on the hen weekend, finding yourselves some of the best and most suitable accommodation available. While there are plenty of posh hotels, the biggest trend right now is booking a private Liverpool Party Apartment.
Staying in an apartment or party house gives you a central base where you can all get ready together. For large groups who want to be right in the action, we recommend Harrys Apartments. If you want a touch of luxury with a hot tub, check out The Liver Bird.
For those seeking a truly exclusive experience, The 40 is a magnificent townhouse complex perfect for large celebrations, or you can opt for the stunning Party Gaff which sleeps up to 22 guests in style.
Hen dos live or die based on what you get up to while you are on them. With that in mind, you’ll be pleased to hear that the array of daytime activities that a Liverpool Hen do is able to offer you is extensive. Cocktail Making is (unsurprisingly) a hugely popular option, especially with our Mixing It Up Package which combines a masterclass with luxury accommodation.
But some groups want to try different things, so whether you want to be a “Day Tripper” and explore the surrounding areas with Gorge Scrambling, or relax and put your feet up with a Pamper Package, Liverpool has definitely got more options than you can possibly explore in one weekend.
Liverpool is very easy to get to regardless of where you are arriving from. Whether you are travelling by road, by rail, by plane or even by boat, Liverpool is one of the most well connected transportation hubs in the UK. Once you arrive, you’ll find that getting around is much easier than you might have expected, with many of the locations you’ll be visiting just a stones throw from each other, so you won’t have to spend hours in taxis.
Liverpool’s nightlife really is second to none. You’ll be bouncing “Here, There and Everywhere” exploring some of the best venues you’ve ever seen. Local pubs that offer a friendly haven and a quiet glass of wine sit side by side with cocktail bars that serve you drinks you’ve never heard of but can’t get enough of.
With its strong musical traditions, Liverpool also offers a wide range of venues with live music, so why not take in a band or two on your Liverpool Hen Do – after all, you might end up watching the next Beatles! And then, after you’ve said “Hello, Goodbye” to whichever nightspot you were last in, you’ll find yourself walking back to your accommodation thinking “Here Comes the Sun” – and that’s always the sign that you’ve had “A Hard Day’s Night”.
