Reading is famous for its annual music festival in the summer, but is also well equipped as a perfect destination for a hen weekend at any time of the year! As a town that is conveniently located for people all across the south of England, a Reading Hen Do can be one of those weekends that everyone finds convenient to get to.
In fact, the atmosphere on a Reading Hen Do is different to any other destination you may be considering, as it marries the friendliness of a mid-size town with the facilities and excitement of a small city. This isn’t just a one-off observation either; Reading has been proving itself to be a popular hen do location for years, with bookings increasing year on year.
Your huge selection of choices begins with the accommodation. Whether you are working to a tight budget and want somewhere cheap, cheerful and well located, or if you’re at the other end of the spectrum and want to splash out on something luxurious, Reading can provide the answer.
It doesn’t matter what type of place you want to stay. You can spend your weekend staying in a Centrally Located Hotel, or even at some truly great Self-Catering Apartments that give you a "home away from home" vibe. These apartments are perfect for pre-drinks before hitting the town!
The options for activities on your Reading Hen Do are huge. With over eighty options available, it doesn’t matter what you want to do, your weekend can be tailored to ensure you get the chance to do everything you want to.
The most popular activity to book is Cocktail Making. One of the most popular hen do activities as a whole, it is particularly great in Reading, as you’ll find yourself in a popular cocktail bar being taught what to do by a trained mixologist. Not only will you get to learn how to make some of the world's best cocktails, you’ll get to drink them too!
That’s not the only popular drinks-based activity either. The Afternoon Tea with Unlimited Prosecco is often added to packages. It’s a great idea to have an ice-breaker type of activity on arrival, and what breaks ice better than as much prosecco as you can drink?
For the third most popular activity, we find ourselves looking towards the always fun option of a Dance Class. We have a huge array of options when it comes to choosing what type of dance class, with Belly Dance, Bollywood, and Glee Dancing. However, the most popular option tends to be Burlesque. After all, it’s a dance you don’t get the chance to try very often!
Nights out on a Reading Hen Do are as exciting as you can imagine. As a university town, Reading is well stocked with pubs that allow you to relax, bars that provide every drink you can imagine, and clubs that play every type of music you could possibly want.
Before diving headfirst into drinks, it’s probably a good idea to grab something to eat. Luckily your choice of restaurants and cuisines in Reading is very large indeed, so the options are plentiful. You could even go the whole hog and have an entire interactive evening planned with a world-famous Murder Mystery dinner.
Once you decide it’s time to move on to the next thing, that’s where Reading will continue to pull out the stops. This city has a great selection of Nightclubs for you to appreciate, with all kinds of music available – everything from rock to hardcore dance and cheesy pop hits.
