Galentine’s Day: A Celebration of Friendship with Fun and Flair

Toronto, ON – Valentine’s Day may be synonymous with romance, but February 13th is all about celebrating the love shared between friends. Known as Galentine’s Day, this unofficial holiday is gaining popularity across the GTA as an opportunity to honour the cherished friendships in your life.

If you’re looking to make this year’s Galentine’s Day unforgettable, here are some fun and fabulous ideas to try:

Heart-Shaped Brunch

Start the day with a themed brunch featuring heart-shaped treats and your favourite comfort foods. Pair the meal with bubbly mimosas or a DIY coffee bar for an extra celebratory vibe. Local retailers like Baskin-Robbins are offering special Valentine’s Day Cakes, which can be ordered online to surprise and delight your guests.

DIY Spa Night

Transform your home into a relaxation retreat with a DIY spa night. Deck out the space with festive décor, soothing music, and everything you need for pampering, from face masks to mani-pedis. Adding a thoughtful touch, swap cute Galentine’s cards to make the evening even more special.

Movie Marathon with a Sweet Twist

Turn your living room into a cozy theatre and queue up friendship-empowering classics like Legally Blonde or Bridesmaids. Stock up on popcorn and drinks, and for an extra treat, create a build-your-own sundae bar with personalized sweets from Baskin-Robbins or indulge in their cakes with uplifting, customized messages.

Creative Craft Party

For the artistic at heart, host a Galentine’s craft party. Whether it’s friendship bracelets, painted canvases, or vision boards, it’s a great way to bond and let your creativity shine.

Memory Jar Exchange

Add a meaningful touch to the festivities with a memory jar exchange. Before the party, have everyone jot down their favourite memories or qualities about each friend on slips of paper. During the celebration, exchange jars filled with these heartfelt notes to commemorate the day.

Whether you’re enjoying a spa night, indulging in delicious desserts, or creating keepsakes with your closest friends, Galentine’s Day is the perfect way to show your squad just how much they mean to you.

Celebrate love, friendship, and togetherness this February 13th—and don’t forget to shower your friends with plenty of smiles and sweets!
