What to do for Valentine’s Day in Christchurch this year.

Valentine's Day is a special day that has become a time-honored tradition for expressing love and appreciation for someone special. It's a day of romantic gestures, thoughtful gifts, and cherished memories. We love Valentine's Day because it allows us to show our love for someone in a meaningful way. It's a day to express our feelings and tell the people we care about that we love them. It's a day to celebrate the love we have for each other and to show our appreciation for those we care about.

Celebrate even if you’re single

There are plenty of fun and creative ways to spend Valentine’s Day even if you’re single. Why not treat yourself to a spa day, watch a romantic movie, host a single’s party and invite your friends, or take a cooking class? You could also volunteer your time at a soup kitchen or animal shelter, read a book, visit a museum, have a picnic in the park, or plan a fun outing with your friends. The possibilities are endless and the best part is that you get to spend the day doing something you love!

Valentine’s Day on a budget

Celebrating Valentine's Day doesn't have to mean spending money. Here are some ideas for how to celebrate on a budget:

  1. Exchange homemade cards or gifts. Put your creative skills to the test and make something special for your partner!

  2. Have a romantic picnic. Prepare a meal at home, pack it up, and take it somewhere scenic.

  3. Have a movie night. Pick out a few of your favorite films and snuggle up on the couch for a cozy evening in.

  4. Have a game night. Pull out the board games, cards, or even video games for a fun evening of competition.

  5. Take a hike. Get some fresh air and explore nature together.

  6. Have a spa day at home. Draw a bubble bath, light some candles, and enjoy a relaxing evening together.

  7. Bake something special. Whether it's cookies, cupcakes, or something more ambitious, baking together is a great way to spend time together.

  8. Go stargazing. Find a spot with a clear view of the night sky and enjoy the beauty of the stars together.

  9. Play tourist in your own city. Visit places you've never been or haven't been to in a while and explore your city together.
