This year, Valentine’s Day falls on a Saturday, but the night before is the newest “Galentine’s Day,” a celebration of love between friends and some of the people we feel the strongest emotions for—our friends.
To celebrate Galentine’s Day on Friday, February 13, 2026—after a long week of work— we have the perfect evening to treat your girlfriends. We recommend booking quickly…
What are we doing forGalentine’s Day?
1. Sauna – at 3 p.m.
Our lives ashot city girlsmove fast, fast, fast, and the chaos of work, kids, traffic on Papineau, and whirlwind weekends often prevent us from treating ourselves to a moment ofself-care that’s completelyfun —and ends with princess-style glitter nail polish on our toes.
Friday, February 13 is the perfect day to treat yourself to a little warmth—and to relax your shoulders in preparation for watching others drool with love the next day.
We recommend trying the 75-minute thermal circuit at Recess’s new Sauna Social, in partnership with Aesop, which opened this fall in Griffintown.
