Best Lesbian Hen Do Activities

Whether you're planning a joint celebration or separate hen parties, these activities are popular with LGBTQ+ groups across the UK. They're fun, welcoming and designed so everyone can get involved without any awkward assumptions.

Line Dancing has become one of our most popular LGBTQ+ hen activities. Learn a fun routine to country music with an experienced instructor who keeps the energy high and everyone involved. It's brilliant for mixed groups and abilities.

Life Drawing sessions work perfectly for lesbian hen parties. You can book with male or female models depending on your bride's preference, and the whole experience is relaxed, creative and genuinely fun rather than awkward.

Bottomless Brunch is always a winner. Two hours of unlimited prosecco, bellinis or cocktails with delicious food in brilliant city centre venues. It's the perfect way to kick off your celebrations with everyone together.

Glow Sports like Glow Netball and Glow Dodgeball combine activity with party vibes. You'll play in the dark with UV lighting, neon bibs and pumping music. It's energetic, hilarious and works for any fitness level.

Cocktail Making classes let you learn professional techniques while making 3-4 cocktails to drink. Our suppliers are brilliant at creating inclusive, welcoming sessions where everyone feels comfortable.

Smartphone Treasure Hunts are perfect if you want something interactive without booking instructors. Self-run challenges around the city, designed specifically for hen groups, with pub stops built in.

Spa Days & Pamper Packages are always a favourite for smaller LGBTQ+ groups. Massages, steam rooms, afternoon tea and time to relax together make it a calm and elegant choice before the evening celebrations.

Karaoke Booths give you a private space to belt out your favourite songs without the awkwardness of a public stage. Book a booth for 2-3 hours and create your ultimate playlist.

Why Our Activities Work for LGBTQ+ Groups

We've been hen do organisers for LGBTQ+ couples since 2007, and we've learned what matters most: suppliers who don't make assumptions, instructors who use inclusive language naturally, and activities where nobody feels like they're being forced into roles that don't fit.

Every supplier we work with understands that lesbian hen groups might include partners celebrating together, mixed-gender friendship circles, or traditional single-bride celebrations. They adapt naturally without making it a big deal, which is exactly what you want when you're trying to have fun.

We specifically choose activities that work for everyone regardless of gender, relationship status or who's in your group. No awkward "bride vs groom" games, no assumptions about male partners, just brilliant experiences where your whole group can relax and celebrate properly.

LGBTQ+ hen groups often tell us they love working with suppliers who don't make assumptions or force awkward gender roles. That's exactly why we choose instructors who create genuinely inclusive sessions where everyone can relax and just have fun being themselves.

Best UK Cities for LGBTQ+ Hen Parties

Brighton is the UK's unofficial LGBTQ+ capital with brilliant bars, beach activities and a genuinely welcoming atmosphere. Perfect for hen weekends with seaside vibes and legendary nightlife.

Manchester has Canal Street and the Gay Village alongside fantastic activities from cocktail making to dance classes. The city knows how to celebrate and the suppliers are brilliant.

London offers everything from West End shows to bottomless brunches in Soho. You'll find LGBTQ+ friendly venues across the city with activities to match any vibe.

Liverpool combines friendly Scouse hospitality with brilliant hen activities. Stanley Street has great LGBTQ+ bars and the whole city makes groups feel welcomed.

Edinburgh mixes sophisticated bars with inclusive venues. Brilliant for hen weekends that want culture, activities and proper celebrations all in one place.

Planning Your Lesbian Hen Do: What to Know

The first decision is whether both brides celebrate together or separately. If you share the same friendship circle, a joint celebration often works brilliantly and keeps costs down. If you have different friend groups or want your own experiences, separate hen parties are completely normal.

When choosing activities, focus on what your bride actually loves rather than what you think hen parties "should" include. Our UK-wide hen party activities work for groups of 6-20 people, and we offer individual payments so everyone can pay for themselves without one person fronting thousands.

Book 8-12 weeks ahead for weekend dates, especially in popular cities like Brighton or Manchester. Weekday celebrations give you more flexibility and often better prices. Most groups book 2-3 activities across a weekend to create a proper celebration without exhausting everyone.

Choose suppliers and venues that explicitly welcome LGBTQ+ groups. As specialist hen party planners, all our activity providers are experienced with same-sex hen parties and create genuinely inclusive environments where your whole group can relax and have fun.
