I generally find them in the minority in Barcelona, despite the
reputation for it as a stag weekend capital- most have moved further
east in Europe. I went on a good old-fashioned pub crawl with one of my
students in Barcelona on Friday night, and I didn't come across many
stag or hen groups. I did come across some hen groups, and this will
probably seem unfair, but I was genuinely taken aback by how badly they
dressed.
