Galentines Day is fast approaching, and although it is usually marked on the 13th of February, thankfully, these wonderful Galentines events across Sussex are spread out over numerous dates.

What is Galentines Day?

Galentines Day is the antithesis to what can sometimes be a disappointing Valentine’s Day. It is a coming together of women celebrating women, whether platonic or romantic. I, for one, absolutely adore this idea, as we get to spend time with our dear friends doing fun activities like sip-and-paint, pilates and nibbles or just drinking wine!

Galentines Events in Sussex

Mornings like these are such a lifesaver for getting out of the house with babies in the winter and what better excuse than treating yourself this Galentines, you deserve it!

Brush Lettering Workshop

Learn the art of brush lettering in the beautiful surroundings of Haus of Pallete Shop. Led by the super talented local artist Danielle Brooks, this is such a charming event to enjoy this Galentines.

Enjoy the satisfaction of swishing your pen into a curling letter, alongside a glass of complimentary glass of Prosecco, and gentle chatter from like-minded souls.

Galentine’s Day: Bellinis, Brunch & Pottery

Enjoy a slow Galentines, by the sea at Rockwater, Hove. Sipping belinis with your besties, enjoy a delicious brunch, great conversations, stellar company and a fun pottery painting session.

This is set to be a lovely, laid-back event, with stunning panoramic sea views and a wood fire burning away to keep you cosy, especially in this particularly grim, wet weather!

You can upgrade free-flowing bubbles, if that is your thing.

Soulful Socials Galentines Party

Finish the evening on a sweet note with Valentine’s cookies, good chats, and feel-good energy all around. Expect a night of food, dancing and fun! 

Galentines Walking Tour 

Join the Hastings Dark Galentines Walking Tour and uncover the darker side of love, friendship, desire and devotion in the heart of Hastings. Enjoy stories of love, lust, friendship and folklore this Valentine’s & Galentine’s Day.

Valentine’s Day has never been just about roses and romance. Historically, it was a strange and sometimes unsettling time, tangled with fortune-telling, love magic, jealousy, and fears about who (or what) you might find yourself bound to.

You will receive your own Valentines/Galentines spell bag to take away, including a Tarot prediction for your connections over the year ahead.

Galentines Bottomless Brunch

The View in Eastbourne is hosting a Galentines bottomless brunch, so grab your besties and celebrate friendship, fizz, and fun. There will be a live DJ spinning tunes throughout, with 90 minutes of unlimited house wine or Prosecco from 12:30-2 pm.

Enjoy a delicious meal and a buffet style dessert.
