Valentine’s Day is just around the corner, and Milan is starting to feel different! Whether you are in couple, with friends, or single, the city offers plenty of ways to make February 14th special, and we’re not just talking about romantic dinners.
Relax and wellness at QC Terme
If you’re craving a break, QC Terme Milano is a little oasis in the heart of the city. Set inside a historic complex, the spa offers both indoor and outdoor thermal pools. A small tip: book an evening time slot in advance, when the atmosphere becomes more intimate and romantic.
Paint & Sip and ceramic workshops
If you are a creative person, try a Paint & Sip event or a hands-on workshop. In Milan, there are a lot of spaces where you can paint while enjoying a drink, or try your hand at shaping clay. It’s a fun way to experiment with something new and take home a one-of-a-kind souvenir.
Candlelight concerts
A truly special experience is a Candlelight Concert: live performances lit by hundreds of candles, featuring string quartets or pianists in historic venues. It’s not just classical music, many concerts reinterpret famous hits, movie soundtracks, or pop songs in a classical style.
Milan from above
Climbing up to the Duomo terraces is one of those classic Milan experiences that never disappoints. If you want something different, the Torre Branca in Parco Sempione offers a 360° view of the city. On clear days, you can even spot the Alps on the horizon. Sunset is always the best time to go.
Visit a museum or an exhibition in the city
For an alternative afternoon, Milan’s museums and exhibitions are well worth a visit. For example, the immersive Claude Monet exhibition turns paintings into digital experiences, with famous works like the Water Lilies projected all around you.
At MUDEC or Palazzo Reale, you can explore contemporary exhibitions, or return to the classics at the Pinacoteca di Brera, home to masterpieces by Caravaggio, Hayez, and many other great artists.
And why not, you could also use this occasion to improve your Italian at our Milan school!
Happy Valentine’s Day to everyone!
