The most romantic time of year is soon approaching, and we want to make sure you’re fully prepared with fun and unique activities to knock the socks off your date. Whilst a fancy dinner for 2 is the classic go-to, there are loads of other ways you can “wine and dine” your significant other without having to worry about getting food stuck in your teeth or mispronouncing the Cabernet Sauvignon!
Tinder daters, high school sweethearts, ‘Galentines’ celebrators, or single kings and queens who simply want to practice self-love, February 14th is the perfect time to celebrate all things love.
Cocktails Ahoy cruise along the Bridgewater Canal
Experience Manchester from a totally new perspective by celebrating on a canal barge as you cruise down the Bridgewater Canal. Each ticket comes with 7(!) cocktails served over 3 hours, with a resident DJ on deck (literally) to keep you entertained as you dance the night away. If that wasn’t cool enough, each cruise is themed by the fabulous Cocktails Ahoy! Crew. Past examples include Peaky Blinders, The 80’s, and Sex and the City. Just be careful you don’t fall in!
