With miles of sandy beaches and a wealth of fantastic bars and clubs, it's no wonder that this city has a pretty big rep for student nights, hen, and stag dos. From glamorous afternoon tea events to exciting virtual reality experiences with mind-boggling escape rooms, we have rounded up the quirkiest activities in Bournemouth.




Arrowsmiths Bournemouth

If the regular pint and catch-up just aren't cutting it anymore, why not try some digital darts at Arrowsmith's, located in The Brass Haus, Bournemouth? Enjoy 90 minutes of gameplay for only £11 per person while you sip on cocktails. If there's a large group of you, how about bagging a party package? 

Escape Hunt Bournemouth
