Durban - There are two types of people in the world.

The first type hates February 14. The second finds the passion and increases it sevenfold. If you and your special someone fall under the second category and you live in Cape Town, Durban, Pretoria and Johannesburg, take note.

 

Gauteng

If you love music almost as much as you adore your significant other, you can enjoy local and live music with the likes of Black Coffee, Crazy White Boy and Skeelo and Holly for R80 - R100. Get rid of daily stress, pack a picnic basket and enjoy the day at the Pretoria National Botanical Garden. Make this Valentines Day the loudest one yet!

Those who laugh together, stay together. A live comedy show such as Parker's Comedy and Jive will guarantee that you have something to talk about the morning after Valentines Day. Have a chuckle at the hilarity of local and international acts at sophisticated venues such as Montecasino and Silverstar.

 

Cape Town

Admit it. There's nothing quite like a romantic classic.

The Galileo Open Air Theatre will entertain you with one of the most famous love stories: Casablanca. On arrival, there will be welcome drinks and live music. There is also a festive market selling artisanal food. Don't forget to capture your special moment at the photo booth. Who said movies was all popcorn and chair kicking?

If you have never dined on a rooftop, here is your chance. At Park Inn by Radisson Foreshore, enjoy a three course meal and feast your eyes on one of the best views the Mother City has to offer. Who needs cake by the ocean when you can have dinner at 7pm on a rooftop?

 

Durban

If you're in sunny Durban why not pack a picnic basket of all you partner's favourite foods and have a relaxed evening at Shongweni Dam. This reserve is the perfect place to relax and enjoy the tranquillity of nature's surroundings while in the company of your loved one. At incredible rates, accommodation and canoeing is available starting at R1 175 to hire. What a better way to spend Valentine's?

If you're feeling for a night in, MyChef is just for you. Durban's climate is renowned for rain in the summertime. This could help set the mood for a romantic night in while enjoying delicious cuisine together. With meals called “love me tender and “I give you my heart”, this idea is sure to be a winner. Sweep your partner off their feet with no effort and lots of time to spare.

With everyone feeling the economic pinch, take the stress out of February 14 without taking away the romance. Your partner is guaranteed to love you for it.
