And don’t worry – if you don’t see somethin’ you love, we’ll be updating this list until the big day! Without further ado:
⭐️ For all you magnificent ladies, we’re throwing a Galentine’s Day Party at Hi-Wire on Sunday, February 13th! Simpl will be servin’ up brunch; Hi-Wire will be slingin’ bottomless mimosas; there will be DIY card makin’ and yoga posin’ and all that good, gal stuff. Learn more and snag your ticket here!
🌟 Speaking of Simpl, Chef Kendale is serving up a four course ticketed dinner on Valentines Day and Galentine’s specials all weekend long. Grab your ticket for Valentine’s Day on the south side right here!
⭐️ South Press Coffee is hosting the Spring Fling Market on Sunday, February 13th! This inclusive market will have all things love for all kinds of love – and great coffee to boot. Learn more here!
NORTH KNOXVILLE:⭐️ If this Valentine’s Day finds you an unattached gem, look no further! We’re throwing a Singles Happy Hour on Saturday, February 12th at the Barrelhouse by Gypsy Circus to prequel their “Valentines Sucks” comedy show. Best part? It’s freeeee. Learn more here!
🌟 What’s the opposite of laughter? Screams of terror. And don’t worry, friends. We’re here to help with the whole spectrum😂 Central Cinema is hosting a “holiday horror event” with a double feature of the original My Bloody Valentine (1981) and Valentine (2001) and plenty of treats and tricks to enjoy between films. Learn more here!
⭐️ The Plaid Apron is hosting a three-course dinner on Valentine’s Day. This local farm-to-table restaurant is the perfect way to treat your sweetie, your city, and your tastebuds all in one sitting 😂🙌 To cap off date night, we suggest a stroll through Sequoyah Park, ooh la la.
🌟 If you’re looking to get creative this year, head to Blue Ridge Yoga! They’re offering a two-hour partner yoga workshop on February 12th. Both laughter and connection are being promised, so we say try it out. (And we’re also not mad about the fact it’s right next to Water into Wine…) You can book your class here!
⭐️ If you would like to feel like Mia Thermopolis this Galentine’s Day, we are on the same page, my friend. Might we suggest The Tennesseean Hotel? They’re offering a high tea experience on February 12th including tea, champagne cocktails, and all the scones, cookies, and fancy treats your Galentine’s lovin’ heart could want. Snag your ticket here!
🌟 Sugar Coated on the 100 Block is having a Galentines Pop Up with ACF Jewelry on February 12th! There will be sips, snacks, and saaales on all things self-care. Even more adorably, ACF Jewelry will be offering half off their endless chains if you bring your bestie 😭💛 Learn more here!
⭐️ If you’re a classic downtown Valentine’s Day dinner guy, the Scruffy City has got you covered. Both Kefi and Vida are hosting five course prix fixe dinners. (Vida is notably stinkin’ conveniently located to The Vault for romantic post-dinner cocktails.) JC Holdway is *chef’s kiss* when it comes to date night – and their Valentines Day menu is lookin’ extra delish.
🌟 Finally, if Knoxville really is your Valentine, there’s no better place to fall in love with her than on the Star of Knoxville 😍 This authentic paddlewheel riverboat will take you up and down the Tennessee River with unique views of downtown Knoxville, Neyland Stadium, and Sequoyah Hills (with a meal to boot!). Snag your ticket here!
Whatever activity you choose, you’ve already made the best choice: makin’ Knoxville, Tennessee the city where you’re celebratin’. Good job, you 😉 Need more ideas? Discover 7 Date Night Ideas here!
You can learn all about Emilie Stooksbury right here, but here’s one more fun fact about her:
» She loves to write about Knoxville.
» She lives downtown with her husband and our favorite mascot, her cat.
» You can expect her articles to be full of bad puns, emphasizing emojis, and far more exclamation points than is ever appropriate.
