The new year has come and gone, and Valentine’s Day is fast approaching. Whether you want to go out with your significant other or stay in with your friends, there are many activities that you can do to put yourself in the spirit! Here are just a few of the many things you can do locally on Valentine’s Day:
Love Locks at Lonsdale Quay
The Quay is filled with Valentine’s Day activities—with tons of restaurants, shops, and stunning views, there’s no better place to spend the day with your loved one(s). Cozy up at the fire pits in Shipyards, take a stroll along the boardwalk, and end the day at the Love Locks!
Mountaintop Ice Skating on Grouse Mountain
Grouse Mountain offers a wide variety of festivities, including ice skating on an 8000 square foot pond. Skating hand-in-hand with a special someone while enjoying the crisp mountain air is a lovely way to celebrate the holiday. Best of all, this activity is complimentary with a mountain admission ticket or season pass!
Valentine’s Day Grams from the Sentinel UNICEF Club
Sentinel will also be taking part in Valentine’s Day celebrations! Our UNICEF club will be selling Valentine grams: cards you can send to students with chocolate and/or a song! These grams are a great way to let your friends or significant other know just how much you appreciate them. You will also be donating money to a great cause. UNICEF works in nearly 200 countries to improve the lives of millions of children. Make sure to follow the club on Instagram to keep up with the latest news!
Staying at Home
If you’re more of a “night in” type of person, then pull out the blankets, get comfy on the couch, and pick one of the 40 Best Romantic Movies on Netflix. Pair this with your favourite food delivered right to the comfort of your own home and you’re ready to go!
All in all, Valentine’s Day isn’t about flashy gestures or spending lots of money—it’s about taking time to be with your loved ones. Whether that means you’re out in town, dining in a restaurant, or relaxing at home, the time you spend with people you care about is special! We hope that your Valentine’s Day is filled with love. :)
