Hen Do Activities in London

London Hen Do Ideas

London is hard to beat for a hen weekend. From Dreamboys and Junkyard Golf in Shoreditch to cocktail making and line dancing around Covent Garden, the range of activities here means you can build a weekend that suits your group.

Most groups kick things off with a daytime activity, then head into one of the city's nightlife areas from there. Keep to one part of London and the day falls into place naturally, with plenty of bars, restaurants and venues nearby.

We've been organising London hen parties since 2007, helping thousands of groups put together weekends that actually work. Take a look at our most popular options below and start planning your own.

Top 10 Hen Do Activities in London for 2026 

London's massive, which means you need to be smart about location. We always ask where you're staying first, then recommend activities nearby so you're not spending half your day on the Tube. That way you actually get to enjoy the city rather than just traveling across it.

What Hen Activities are in Shoreditch?

Shoreditch is one of the best areas in London for a hen party that wants a bit of an edge. Dreamboys runs centrally and works brilliantly as an evening centrepiece, Chocolate Making is a fun creative afternoon option before the night kicks off, and Junkyard Golf and Drinks combines crazy golf with a cocktail bar in one venue, a popular choice for groups who want something social and low-key to start the day.

What Hen Activities are in Soho?

Soho is one of the most compact parts of London, so it's easy to move between activities without the group splitting up. Cocktail Making works well as an afternoon option, Life Drawing is hosted at a private Soho venue with a male model, and the Smartphone Treasure Hunt lets you explore the area at your own pace before the group comes back together for the evening.

What Hen Activities are in the West End?

The West End is the obvious choice if you want your evening to feel like a proper London night out. The Silent Disco Tour gets the group dancing through the streets with headphones on before ending at a central bar, Escape Rooms are available at several venues for groups who want something interactive earlier in the day, and the nightclub options in the West End mean you can carry on into the early hours if that's what the group's after.

Where are the Best Bottomless Brunches for a Hen Party in London?

London has more bottomless brunch options than most UK cities, so there's something to suit most budgets and group sizes. The Bottomless Brunch Boat Party is the standout choice if you want something genuinely different: a three-hour cruise along the River Thames with bottomless prosecco for 90 minutes, a live DJ and panoramic views past the London Eye, Tower Bridge and Big Ben.

For something more straightforward on land, the Tropical Bottomless Brunch, Bottomless Pizza and Prosecco, Pan-Asian Bottomless Brunch and Italian Bottomless Brunch all run at central London venues with unlimited drinks for two hours.

What Classes Can You Do on a Hen Party in London?

If you want something structured to anchor the afternoon before heading out, London has a great range of class-based activities to choose from. Line Dancing gets everyone on their feet with a choreographed routine in a private central venue, Perfume Making is a brilliant option if you want something a bit more personal, with each person leaving with their own fragrance they've created from scratch.

Sip and Paint combines canvas painting with drinks included for a relaxed creative session, and the Cowboy Hat Workshop is always a crowd-pleaser, with everyone designing their own hat to wear on the night out.

What are some Unique Hen Do Ideas in London?

London gives you options you genuinely can't do anywhere else. The Boat Party is the most London-specific activity going: a three-hour evening cruise on the Thames with a live DJ and two fully stocked bars on board, passing some of the most iconic landmarks in the country.

The Prosecco Bike is a fun way to keep the whole group together for a social ride through the city with drinks in hand, and if you want something more interactive, the Latin Cocktail Masterclass puts a fresh spin on the usual cocktail class with a bit more energy and personality to it.

London Nightlife for Hen Do's

London's nightlife is one of the biggest reasons groups choose the city, with bars, clubs and late-night venues spread across areas like Shoreditch, Soho and Camden, so there's always something nearby whatever part of the city you're in.

Most groups kick things off with something organised like Forbidden Nights, a cocktail making class or VIP nightclub entry with drinks and reserved seating, then carry the night on from there.

If you’re browsing multiple cities, our hen do locations page gives you all the choices in one place.
