A new advertising campaign attached to internet searches such as 'stag party Amsterdam' aims to discourage 'nuisance tourists' to the Dutch capital — beginning with young British men.
Amsterdam has launched a campaign to discourage tourists from planning drug and alcohol-fuelled parties — starting with young British men.It will target young UK men at first, but may be expanded to other EU countriesThe Dutch capital has long been trying to curb rowdy behaviour such as stag parties, especially near the famed red light area where sex workers operate.

The ads would show the "risks and consequences of anti-social behaviour and excessive drug and alcohol abuse", including fines, arrest, criminal records, hospitalisation and health issues.
