Valentine’s Silent Disco at Natural History Museum
Dancing below a four-tonne, 25-metre long blue whale skeleton isn’t the typical date night.. but anything is possible in London, right? Make it a V Day to remember at the Natural History Museum, where you can explore the galleries after-dark, drink cocktails amongst animal skeletons – including Hope, the iconic blue whale, before picking up your headphones and dancing the night away in Alfred Waterhouse’s Romanesque cathedral until midnight.

The Sky Tonight Live
For something a little more romantic, head to the Royal Observatory in Greenwich for an evening of stargazing. Throughout the year, the observatory welcomes visitors to explore the universe via a planetarium show, presented by an astronomer. Lose yourself in fascination as you gaze up at the sky with your date, discovering what is in the stars for the month ahead.

Orchestral Valentines
Valentine’s Day is sure to end on a (literal) high note, with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, as they host a special Valentine’s concert at Cadogan Hall, Chelsea. The concert consists of the most romantic music ever written, from the worlds of film, opera and classical music. Emotive and moving for even the coolest heart, with well-known themes played from Out of Africa, Doctor Zhivago and Romeo and Juliet (1968) as well as much-loved classics by Tchaikovsky, Rachmaninov, Chopin, Mascagni, Verdi, Massenet, and more.

Romantic Dinner at Maggie Jones’
Cosy, rustic, informal and incurably romantic; Maggie Jones’ restaurant is the perfect setting for those favoring a slightly more understated celebration. Think intimate candle-lit tables, hearty British food, and warm, atmospheric decor. Maggie Jones’ is a B&L favourite, walking distance from our aparthotels in Kensington. This friendly restaurant has been loved by locals for over 40 years, and is always at the top of our list on local recommendations throughout the year, but especially for romantic Valentine’s evenings in February.
