Games Night
Not every bachelor party idea needs to involve going out or spending a lot of money. Whether you are trying to arrange a bachelor party on a budget, or your friend isn’t interested in going out, hosting a games night at home can be just as much fun. Get everyone to bring their favorite games around and set up gaming stations around the house.
You can even have a gaming battle and crown the winner or team with the most points from all the games combined. As the room is all yours, you can also decorate it for the bachelor party. For bachelor party decorations, check out these ideas to get the room prepped ahead of the games night. This guide has useful ideas on how to match your bachelor party decorations to your theme and the coolest party decorations to add to your list.
Skydiving
For all the adrenaline junkies out there, skydiving is a unique and amazing bachelor party idea. You could even use this toraise some money for charity if the groom holds a charity close to his heart. Many skydiving experiences also allow you to get pictures and videos of the skydive, which are perfect for your best man speech! Not everyone will be up for this one though, so make sure that your friends who fear heights can sit back and watch the action unfold instead.
Bar Crawl
Looking for a classic bachelor party idea? If you want to celebrate your best friends’ last night of freedom, what better way to celebrate than a bar crawl. This could be a fun-filled evening visiting your favorite bars growing up, or you can visit a different state and try something completely new. You can also team this idea up with another on this list, perhaps watching the big game in the day before having a pub crawl in the evening.
VR Experience
VR experiences are a great idea if the groom is into his video games. There are plenty of VR experiences to be had, and some VR lounges offer bachelor-friendly packages, so you can enjoy all the games without having to wait in line. Whether you want to shoot zombies or rock out to your favorite tunes on Beat Saber, a bachelor VR experience is a cool idea for 2022.
Festival
Are you and your friends into live music and camping? If so, a bachelor party at a festival could be the way to go. There are plenty of cool festivals across the US all year long, or you may even want to make the trip to another country. From Lollapalooza to The Governors Ball Music Festival, there are some great music festivals in the USA in 2022.
Axe Throwing
Perhaps one of the coolest on the list, axe throwing is a great bachelor party idea and an awesome experience if you have never been before. This can also be made into a friendly competition and could be the first stop on the bachelor party tour. If the groom’s family is coming, this is also a family-friendly bachelor party idea that can be enjoyed by everyone, if they are over the age of 18. Axe throwing, as the name suggests, is throwing axes at a target. It is a lot harder than it first looks though, so be prepared and happy throwing!
Casino
It’s not every night you get to dress up and go to a casino, so if the groom likes a bit of gambling or is into poker, a casino night can be a great bachelor party idea. You may want to book a room in the casino and have your own private event with friends, followed by a meal at the casino. If you are ready to make the groom feel like James Bond for the night, try a casino-themed bachelor party.
Food Tour
Not everyone is into drinking, so if you want a family-friendly bachelor party idea, why not have a food tour across a nearby state? America is home to some of the best spots to grab a bite, whether you are into barbecue, chicken wings, or Tex-Mex. If you want to find the best places to go for a food tour, here are the 15 best foodie tours in the USA.
Watching The Big Game
Is your best friend a fan of football? Perhaps they absolutely love basketball or ice hockey. No matter what their preferred sport, why not try to bag them tickets to one of their favorite games? If they don’t often get the chance to go or usually can’t afford a ticket, this will be a great surprise. Depending on your budget and who else might chip in, you could even look at getting a VIP box. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and one that your friend will cherish forever.
Paintball
Another one for the list, paintballing is a fun and immersive experience that is fantastic for all ages. This makes for a great idea if there are going to be any younger people at the bachelor party who can’t partake in drinking. Most paintballing courses have the option to book for bachelor parties, meaning you can have the whole course to yourselvestoo. Paintballing isn’t too expensive either, so is the perfect activity if you are looking for a cheap bachelor party idea.
These 10 cool bachelor party ideas are great for 2022 and will be a real surprise for your best friend, no matter what your party size and budget. You could also choose to do a few of these and make a weekend of it, for a truly great bachelor weekender.
