buck's night

Pre-wedding male celebration

A buck's night is an Australian and New Zealand term for a party held for a man who is about to get married, organized by his friends as a final celebration of bachelorhood.

The American equivalent is a bachelor party; the British equivalent is a stag night or stag do.

These gatherings typically involve drinking, pranks, and activities meant to embarrass or challenge the groom-to-be.
