February 14^th is right around the corner! DowntownDC BID curated a list of fun ideas you can do with your significant other or friends!

#1. Romanticos

Start the evening off strolling through City Center’s Palmer Alley marveling at the beautiful sparkling lights above, maybe warranting a photo op.
While you stroll, take a break and shop at some of the most high-end retail shops in DC (maybe this is where you pick that Valentine’s Day gift, that “you forgot”).
Lastly, just walk a minute up to DowntownDC’s newest Italian addition, Modena, and try the tagliatelle bolognese with aged parmesan. Yum!

#2. Beer Enthusiasts

Nothing says a good time like 30+ drafts and array of video games! Start your fun night at Penn Social, three blocks away from the Capitol One Arena!
Then head over to the Drafthouse Comedy Theater to burn off the beer with a few laughs to watch Adam Cayton-Holland from The Grawlix, Tragedy Plus Time and Conan.

Take a stroll through the Smithsonian’s most beautiful art museum in DC, The National Portrait Gallery off 8^th and F St. Get immersed in the three floors of breathtaking portraits and culture from all around the world. Take a break in the Kogod Courtyard Café for a quick bite.
Cross the street over to The Ford Theatre and to watch the inspiring new drama “Silent Sky.”
End your night, at Bar Deco, for a late dinner or drinks inspired by art deco period and American style dining options.

Your own D.I.Y. Valentine’s Day tasting tour!

Start your tour at Eaton DC’s American Son on K Street, with their small yet appetizing Valentine’s Day tasting menu.
Head over to Toro Toro on I Street for bottomless Pan-Latin sharing plates and a complimentary champagne toast for $55 per guest.
End the night at City Center’s, Fig & Olive, for their V Day drink specials.
