I'd have thought it was obvious: BRIGHTON!
Fly to Gatwick, National Express for peanuts, B&Bs are cheap and cheerful - there's a backpackers' hostel right outside my flat starting at £9 a night for B&B, loads of casinos, night clubs, naughty clubs, about 10 pubs within 100 yards of any given place, the beaches (regular and nudist!), literally hundreds of cafes, bistros and assorted eateries, plus the RACING! Dogs - free on Tuesday and Thursday nights at Hove (about £8 by taxi from in town - not much if shared), and I daresay I could apply for mates' rates for you for the horses - there are six meetings in June/July, so there's absolutely no excuse for you not to attend at least one of them!
There are three or four comedy stores where up-and-coming stand-ups try out (with raucous audiences plied with beer), the fabulous Marina for 10-pin, snooker/pool, swimming, multiscreen cinema, speedboat or fishing boat hire... could you ask for more? The place is heaving with young people having fun - you really would have to be particularly dull not to have a good time here!
Thousands of hen do's every weekend too - Brighton in the summer is great
