V-Day is just around the corner, so it’s time to start planning how you’re going to spend it. Luckily, there is no shortage of fun and romantic Valentine’s events in Vancouver. From a boat cruise around English Bay to participating in the final weekend of Vancouver’s very own Hot Chocolate Festival, check out a list of the top ways to spend Valentine’s Day in Van City.
VALENTINE’S DAY BOAT PARTY CRUISE
Surprise your partner with the V-Day date of a lifetime by booking tickets to a Valentine’s Day Yacht Party. Experience the city like never before while celebrating the day of love on this boat cruise. There will be live music, DJs, and 360 degree views as you spend three hours cruising your way down False Creek, through English Bay, and into the inner harbour.
HOT CHOCOLATE FESTIVAL
Greater Vancouver’s Hot Chocolate Festival has arrived just in time for Valentine’s Day. On now until Monday, February 14th, this can’t-miss festival has partnered with over 40 locations in the city to offer mouthwatering hot chocolate concoctions. Participating locations include Honolulu Coffee, Ladurée, 49th Parallel Coffee, Doughgirls, Cadeaux Bakery, and many more.
ROMANTIC STAYCATION

And with so many restaurants in the city offering exclusive Valentine’s Day menus, you’ll have plenty of options for a special evening. For example, Cardero’s is offering V-Day features like beef carpaccio and molten lava cake, Tojo’s is offering a decadent Wagyu Omakase menu, while Pizzeria Farina is bringing back their signature heart-shaped margherita pizzas, available exclusively on Valentine’s Day.
