Gameplan, gentlemen.

So you’ve assembled the groom-to-be’s trusted squad of friends, colleagues, and that one guy they knew from high school. There’s a very high chance not everyone will know each other, let alone be the best of friends immediately, so an ice-breaker is crucial for establishing a sense of bachelor party unity. Yes, that’s a thing. The more included everyone feels, the more likely everyone is to not only enjoy themselves but to look out for each other when the hour gets late. How do you achieve this?

Thank you for asking. Nothing breaks the ice at a bucks night like a cooking class. With a combination of teamwork, showmanship, and a delicious reward for effort, it’s no wonder they’re a team building staple. But you’re looking for stag do ideas, so it’s vital any cooking class fits the party vibe. Sydney Cooking School can offer you just that, with their Mexican Cooking Class for Private Groups! Enjoy whipping up some tomatillo salsa and tortillas with the boys to start the night off. They also offer BYO, so delicious Mexican food doesn’t come at the expense of the beers.

But alas, maybe your soon-to-be-wed best bud has more of a somewhat refined taste - a caviar palette - if you will. Lucky for you, Brix Distillers in Surry Hills organise a Rum Spicing masterclass that’s sure to appease the fancier buck. Starting with a complimentary rum and dry, you and the crew will tour the distillery, learning the finer points of the rum-making process, before diving into the infusions, where you will walk away with 200ml of your own creation at the end of the night. Turns out bachelor party planning can be a little bit fancy. Tally ho, old sport.
