Watching a movie or having a romantic meal out is lovely, but why not try something new with your love this Valentine's day (or with your BFF for gal-entines day) with our non traditional date night ideas.

Work it out

Doing a workout as a date can be a fun way to kick off your day, get your body moving with a boxing class, work on your flexibility and strength with some yoga or tackle a group workout with your partner.

Get Crafty

Make your own date momento as a special keep sake. Get creative with colour and pick up a fluid bear kit from Yoyoso, put together a puzzle and have it framed or grab some matching sweats from AS Colour and have them embroidered with each others initials at EmbroidMe

Learn to cook

Take up a cooking class and learn from the professionals. Join Mirella from Arte Della Pasta and learn to make perfect Raviolli or Gnocchi from scratch! A meal you can make together again and again.

Fuel the soul

We can't go past food, but why not try a walking date night, a dessert degustation! Stop at three different locations and share a dessert of your choice. Try grabbing an ice cream sandwich from Duck Island, head to Daldang for a fatcaron and finish with an indulgent Crème Brulee from New York Grill.
