Chic and glamorous, Madrid has been hosting some of the coolest hen parties for years now. While it's the capital of the most popular hen party country in Europe, Madrid has retained its small-town charm with its rich culture, incredible local cuisine and an outdoor dining scene we could only dream of in our rainy country.

In the heart of Madrid is Plaza Mayor, it's the city's main hotspot brimming with top restaurants, tapas bars, cosy cafes, buzzing shops during the day and raging clubs at night.

Colourful-grand sights, elegant boulevards, museums, art and a city steeped in history and culture all await you in Madrid.

In the evening on your Madrid hen do, enjoy rooftop bars, guided bar crawls, scrumptious food and plenty of hunky strippers on the side if you should so desire.

Whatever you and the girls are after, Madrid will provide you with something special and memorable while being easy on the purse strings.

Wine tasting always goes down a treat as does a tapas lunch or a 3-course meal at a Terrace Restaurant. However, if you want to pick up some cooking skills during your Madrid hen do, you can don a chef hat and get creating with a Paella or Tapas cooking class.
