Galentines London events 2024: 5 things to do with your gal pals this Valentine's Day

Valentine's Day is almost a month away, and for those wanting to celebrate the season of love with their friends, here are five activities for your Galentines festivities. 

A day to honour your gal pals, Galentine's Day has become widely celebrated just before Valentine's on February 13. The friend tradition is said to have caught on after featuring in the US sitcom series Parks and Recreation. 

The holiday is now celebrated annually around the world, including London. This year, in particular, the capital is to host a number of Galentines-themed events for girl groups across the capital to enjoy.

From pottery painting to puppy yoga, we've found five Galentines activities to celebrate with your friends this February.

Pottery Painting

Why not get creative with your gal pals this season of love and create your own Galentine-themed bowl, mug, or plate at Social Pottery London? You and your friends could even plan to create a themed set of mugs for future Galentines festivities.
