What to do This Valentine's Day (Whether You're Single, Taken or in a Happy Relationship With Your Pet)
Whether you’re spending Valentine’s Day with your significant other, your BFF’s or some furry friends we’ve curated our top picks of what to do across Australia this year.
Sydney
If you’re an animal lover, having your photo taken with the rescue dogs from Sydney Dog’s and Cat’s Home will be a total treat. Not only will spending time with these loving, doting creatures inevitably lift your spirits, you’ll be helping the shelter’s ability to home these four-legged friends until they’re adopted. Having outgrown their current space, SDACH are raising funds for an expansion and all you have to do is show up and say cheese! Head to Martin Place to have your portrait taken and sent straight to you (might we suggest adding it to your Bumble profile?).
Where: Martin Place
When: 14-Feb from 7am-3pm
Cost: $10
Neutral Bay
Wish you could plan a romantic getaway (or a girls trip) to Southern California this Valentine’s Day? We can help you get a little closer to living that dream. At SoCal, the friendly bartenders will give you a free pineapple infused cocktail if you show your Bumble profile on arrival. After that, the cocktail will be available all night at a special price of $15 for all Bumble users.
Bondi Beach
We’re launching a series of singles dinner parties across Australia called Wine and Dine. To celebrate the forthcoming events, Bumble is hosting a breakfast at Bondi Hardware live on Sunrise. All are welcome: first in, first served. To register to find out when and where the events are popping up, email honey.aus@team.bumble.com.
The early bird gets the worm (or in our case, the bee 🐝)!

When: 6am-9am

The Hills
If your Valentine’s style more akin to spending a relaxed night watching a movie, why not amp it up a bit this year by heading over to the Sydney Hills Outdoor Cinema.
