20 things that always happen on a hen party in Liverpool

It's no secret that Liverpool knows how to party, which has seen it become a top destination for hen groups and other celebrations. Crowds regularly flock to city looking for a good time. With a huge selection of bars - from the cheesy but lovable Popworld, to raucous joints like McCooley's, stylish spots like Neighbourhood Liverpool right through to themed bars like Maya and Aloha, it's easy to see why.

For hen parties, they're spoilt for choice with offerings from boutique hotels and apartments, to cocktail-making classes, spas and even ladylike afternoon teas , but there are certain things that always tend to happen. We've all been there...

1. Nobody is ready on time

At least one member of the group will still be applying fake tan whilst the others are ready to book the taxi.

2. Pre-drinks are downed in record time

Probably faster than you can say Prosecco.

3. It takes the efforts of a covert mission to try and organise the correct amount of taxis

It's an impressive level of organisation given the amount of alcohol consumption!

4. It still won't be the right amount

Ah, that makes more sense.

5. One member will be assigned eyelash duty

It's a big deal. The poor soul on duty will definitely panic under the pressure.

6. Nobody will have extra lash glue

The stress levels intensify.

7. An obscene amount of selfies and outfit shots are snapped

Do it for the 'gram.

8. When you're eventually in the taxi, at least one of you will befriend the driver

You'll bond over your mutual love of the city.

9. Deciding to sing (and by sing, we mean shout) all your favourite tunes becomes of utmost importance

Much to the taxi driver's dismay.

10. One hen is already struggling to stand before the first bar

There's always one!

11. On at least one of the group loo trips, you'll have several heart-to-hearts with some lovely local strangers

Naturally, you'll declare yourselves BFFs. The kind of BFFs you never see again, of course.

12. You'll end up almost vomiting over a baked beans shot in CaVa

Enough said.

13. Dancefloor jagerbombs will provide a necessary pick-me-up

Who doesn't need a post-1am boost?

14. You'll all help one another reapply makeup in the toilets

Channeling your inner makeup artist. Sadly, bad lighting and wobbly hands probably aren't the best combination, but there you go.

15. The call of Popworld becomes harder to ignore

Why fight the inevitable?

16. An epic group dance will ensue

Likely a re-imagined version of a Spice Girls number. For "re-imagined", read "wrong".

17. One of you will get lost

But they'll return to the group with a host of new friends.

18. You'll finish the night in Nabzy's

Have no regrets, it's the home of the best cheesy chips in Merseyside.

19. You'll definitely nab a hash brown whilst waiting for the rest of your order

Has to be done.

20. None of you will want to go home!

And frankly, we don't blame you!
