Birthday Activity Ideas for Adults
When we think of large groups going out of their way to add special activities and experiences to their weekend, one occasion springs to mind – birthdays! What better time to celebrate with something a bit different than a birthday? Here at Funktion we’re big believers that birthday party activities for adults are just as important as kids birthday parties. For one day or weekend of the year, let your hair down and treat your loved ones to proper celebration with Sheffield’s help.
Big birthdays like a 21st birthday night out, 30th birthday party soiree or 50th birthday party ideas are usually the kind of events people want to go all out on. Because of all these different ages, we’ve created a grand scope of different group activities to suit every birthday for every occasion.

Ladies Night Out
We’re just going to put this out for the world – there is always an excuse for a ladies night out! You don’t need a special occasion to enjoy a classic girls night out with your favourite girls, simply get yourself a new outfit, invite everyone out and add a little extra oomph to make the evening one to remember.
First and foremost, if you’re organising a ladies night out in Sheffield you need to know a little about the nightlife scene first (hint, it’s a lot!) For such a big city it has nightlife to match, from West Street’s vibrant bars to Carver street and the classic Popworld nightclub. If you want to go all out and really treat your gal pals, a reserved booth or nightclub entry passes are an easy addition to any ladies night out.
We can also help organise your hen weekend in Sheffield.
