At Hot Fox Pottery, we offer one-of-a-kind pottery workshops for hen parties in Brighton—perfect for groups who want to get hands-on, have a laugh, and make something a little cheeky (or totally tasteful—it’s up to you!).
Why Pottery Makes a Great Hen Do Idea
Whether you’re the maid of honour, the bride-to-be, or just the group planner extraordinaire, organising a hen do that feels personal, fun, and unforgettable can be a challenge. Our pottery sessions tick all the boxes:
✅ Great for mixed ages & energy levels
✅ Completely beginner-friendly
✅ Hosted in Brighton’s central South Lanes or at our studio
✅ Option to go cheeky (*hello, booby mugs*) or keep it classy
It’s creative. It’s social. It’s full of laughs. And yes—there’s free prosecco involved.
What Happens at a Pottery Hen Do?
Here’s what your group can expect at one of our Brighton hen party pottery workshops:
1. A 2-hour guided workshop with all materials included
2. Make your own booby-themed cup, dish, or pot (or choose from a range of non-booby options like mugs or bowls)
3. A friendly, fun atmosphere with expert
4. A free glass of prosecco to toast your creations & cocktails and nibbles available to buy from the bar
5. Firing and glazing (we’ll post your pieces to you or arrange collection)
You don’t need any prior experience—just a sense of humour and a willingness to get your hands a bit mucky.

Not Keen on Boobs? No Problem
While our Body Bits workshops are a huge hit for hen dos, we know they’re not for everyone. That’s why we also offer non-booby pottery sessions, where your group can hand-build mugs, bowls, candle holders, and more.
Perfect if you’re after a more relaxing, wholesome experience with a creative twist.
