If you are organising a party, such as a stag do or a hen night, there is a fair amount of responsibility on you to ensure everyone has fun, or at least that the evening is not a disaster.

As the party can involve some people that do not know each other it can be hard to get people to relax and get into the party mood, creating an awkward atmosphere. One of the best ways to get around this is to start the night with a visit to a comedy club.

Primarily the comedy club should give everyone plenty of reasons to laugh and unless the comedians and awful it should put you all in a good mood, while it also creates subjects to discuss after he show is over.

You can also enjoy some drinks before, during and after the performances, which benefit from the regular intervals as it allow guests that are still finding their feet to get to know everyone in short doses.

However, the best reason to go to a comedy club for a stag or a hen night is there is a fair chance at least one of the comedians will pick up on a there being a hen party of a stag party in the audience and make a few light-hearted jokes at the expense of the groom or bride-to-be, which is part of the course on their party night.

The best comedy clubs are in the biggest cities, so if you are on a hen night in London or a stag night in Newcastle you should be in for a treat.
