Everyone likes a bit of fancy dress, so why not incorporate a theme to your stag night activities and let everyone know you’re part of the gang!

Stag night themes have become very popular and there’s nothing better than seeing people’s faces as 20 Elvis’ walk into the pub. You’ll get a lot of attention from the ladies and it will make losing people in a crowded club a whole lot harder to do!

It’s a good idea to make sure everyone in the stag party knows about the themes you are considering and are happy with the ones you've chosen, and don't forget to let the venues you’re going to know this in advance, as some places may have a dress code and won't take too kindly to a group turning up in fancy dress. Obviously if you go for the James Bond theme you shouldn’t have too many problems getting in anywhere in your tux. Not sure you’d have as much success wearing your spaceman outfits!

You can get a wide range of costumes from most fancy dress shops or online and there are many themes available. Some of the most popular Stag night themes are:

• James Bond
• Elvis
• Spacemen
• Superheros
• Cowboys
• Toga Party
• Cavemen
• Soldiers

If you don’t want to go the whole hog and just want to be able to stand out from the crowd, then why not get some stag antlers, masks or some grass skirts and leis for everyone? These aren’t too excessive and are easily removable if you encounter a pub landlord or club bouncer without a sense of humour!

There are many themes to choose from, all equally as good, so why not have a brain storming session before you go? You'll be surprised by how many stag night ideas you come up with especially if you hold the meeting down the pub!
