Valentine's Day party ideas
Valentine's Day doesn't have to be dinner for two. Celebrate friendship with a Galentine's brunch, cook a three-course meal side by side with other couples, host a tongue-in-cheek anti-Valentine's party for singles, or let children make cards and treats for the people they love.
You'll also find ideas that work well for a romantic night in, such as fondue, sushi making and paint and sip.

Anti-Valentine's party
A tongue-in-cheek party for singles with black balloons, break-up songs karaoke, a piñata and comfort food.
Couples' cooking night
Couples cook a three-course meal side by side with recipe cards, a cook-off dessert and wine to match.
Fondue night
A cosy evening of cheese fondue followed by chocolate fondue, with games until midnight.
Galentine's brunch
A brunch for best friends with a waffle bar, a flower bouquet station, compliments jar and pink fizz.
Kids' Valentine's craft party
Kids make cards, heart garlands and treat boxes for friends and family, with heart-shaped snacks.
Paint and sip evening

A hands-on sushi class at home: roll maki, shape nigiri and finish with mochi and green tea.
