Galentine's Day

Gather Your Gals for Galentine’s Day!

Love any excuse to hang out with your besties? Then it’s time to embrace the most recent February holiday: Galentine’s Day!

What Is Galentine’s Day?

Galentine’s Day is that very special day dedicated not to couples, but to the unbreakable bond that can only be found between females. That’s right! Galentine’s Day is all about female friendship. Celebrated on February 13, it was started 13 years ago by none other than Leslie Knope, a fictional TV series character.

In season 2, episode 16 of Parks and Rec, which aired in 2010, Leslie gets a group of her girlfriends together for a waffle brunch. She explains, “Every February 13, my lady friends and I leave our husbands and our boyfriends at home and we just come and kick it, breakfast style. Ladies celebrating ladies.”

Happy birthday, Galentine’s Day!

What Do You Do on Galentine’s Day?

While Leslie Knope treated her friends to brunch, Galentine’s Day is really just about spending time with your friends and showing how much you love and appreciate each other. So…do anything you want!

Not a fan of brunch? Have a movie night with popcorn and treats. Or maybe you want to get out of the house when it’s actually night time! Treat yourselves to a sit-down dinner where someone else brings you food and you don’t have to do the dishes. That may be the perfect way to spend some quality time with your BFFs.

There are no rules for Galentine’s Day except one: Have fun with your favorite gal pals doing something you all love! Come up with an annual tradition or change it up every year—it’s up to you and your friends! The most important part is to celebrate your friendships and the importance of the women in your life.
