Valentine's Day in Munich

Still don't know how you're going to spend Valentine's Day this year? No problem! We'll show you all the great events taking place in Munich on February 14. Whether it's a date with your sweetheart, a wonderful experience with your best friend or a few special hours with yourself to really enjoy the culture of your city. ✨

Valentine's Day can be accused of a lot of things - and certainly rightly so. But we think there's nothing wrong with taking a day out to do things that make your heart beat faster! ❤️

Enchanting light show

Experience magical moments, whether alone or as a couple, in St. Mark's Church. A light show in the beautiful interior takes you on a journey through the seasons, and all you have to do is make yourself comfortable in a beanbag and let the animated colors, shapes and sounds work their magic on you.

Beautiful exhibitions

When was the last time you really took your time to stroll through an exhibition and soak up all the impressions? We think so: Valentine's Day is the perfect occasion to fully immerse yourself in art, no matter what form it takes. Here you can find an overview of all the exhibitions currently taking place in Munich.

How about beautiful flower motifs at Nature Into Art in the Alte Pinakothek, for example? Or - something completely different: experience butterflies up close at the special exhibition in the Botanical Garden?

Fancy a laugh?

Laughter is healthy - even on Valentine's Day! That's why Comedy for Friends has an extra Valentine's special. Come along, get carried away and forget your everyday worries for 90 minutes. You really don't need them on February 14th!

Delicious dining out

Let's take a quick look at the absolute classic: eating out. There are many great restaurants in Munich that will be happy to prove to you that the way to a man's heart is through his stomach! Some restaurants even have special offers on Valentine's Day. Grab one or more loved ones and enjoy a delicious meal!

Toasting and dancing the night away

Well fortified, you can then make your way to a bar or club of your choice and toast to love with delicious drinks, get your heart pumping with wild dance moves and simply have a wonderful time.

The Prosecco Bar, for example, is the place to be with your favorite pop hits playing in the background. Or would you like to shout along to the bangers of your youth at Call Me Drella, from High School Musical to Justin Bieber? You can also get behind the mic yourself at the YoKocho Karaoke Bar - perhaps to perform a love song for your sweetheart?

And if you're currently looking for great people to meet and date, then we advise you to close your dating apps on February 14 and come to the Helene Disco instead! (Pssst, the Disco Amore is also a great party experience for non-seekers...)

Enjoy evening events

If you fancy dressing up and enjoying Friday evening in style, you can choose one of the many beautiful evening events in Munich - for example an opera or a play?

On February 14, the opera Alcina will be performed at the wonderful Gärtnerplatztheater. At the Residenztheater you can see the play Sternstunden der Menschheit. Nothing for you yet? You can find even more music and theater highlights on our website.

It won't be quite as dignified at the Strom - but with a lot of love in the air! Psst, the Verifiziert concert is already sold out, but we're still lotterying for tickets... so enter the competition now!

Cozy live music

By the way, you can also experience music in the afternoon. We recommend the live performance at Café Beans & Books. Whether it's quality time with yourself or swaying with your loved ones, you can make yourself comfortable here and round off the afternoon with guitar sounds and live singing.

Cuddling at the movies

The good old movie date should not be missing from our list! Many a hand has unexpectedly intertwined in the dark auditorium, first advances have been made and secret kisses have been exchanged. But you can also have movie fun with good friends, or simply with yourself, instead of a series marathon in bed. How good that the new Bridget Jones movie is showing on Valentine's Day of all days! That's right: SHE'S BACK - the film icon who shaped an entire genre.

Night flea market romance

Don't you think that flea markets have a romance all of their own? Especially in the evening? Then head to the Midnightbazar Streetfood & Night Market in the old parcel post hall! Here you can stroll, browse, feast and soak up the evening market vibes while it gets dark outside and the moon rises over Munich.

Creative for the heart

Being creative and creating something usually evokes a sense of fulfillment and pride. We think so: It's good for the heart! And apparently some workshop organizers in Munich think so too. Whether it's Valentine's Day specials for lovebirds or creative sessions for everyone, there's sure to be something for you in our Active & Creative category on February 14. Here are two tips for you:

Commitment to something good

If you are now saying "All well and good, but there are really more important issues in the world right now!", then we say: "FAIR!" and recommend that you use this day to do something good.

In this blog article, you will find various ways in which you can get involved as a volunteer in Munich. Also: The nationwide climate strike will take place on February 14. If that's not the best way to spread love!

Ah yes, here's our latest tip for the music of the day: we highly recommend our spring fever playlist to get you in the right mood. With that, we send you off into Valentine's Day planning and send you lots of love, no matter how, where and with whom you spend February 14!
