Miami Valentine’s Day Events to Treat Your Sweetheart To
Guest column by Doug McCallister

If you haven’t already started making plans, you’d better get to work! Don’t worry; there are some foolproof events going on in the Miami area that’ll make this Valentine’s Day special.

Love-In And All That Jazz
When: 7:00 pm – 10:00 pm
Where: Marjorie and William McDonald Center
17501 NE 19th Ave.
North Miami Beach, FL 33162
Price: $15 per person or $120 for table of 10 people

If you two love the romantic vibe of the Jazz Age, this is going to be your perfect Valentine’s night out. There will be a collective vow of love with a champagne toast, a full-course dinner, dancing to the swing of the 20s with a live band, raffles, live entertainment, and more.

Romance/Romance
When: 3:00 pm
Where: Abdo New River Room at the Broward Center
Price: $45 per ticket

Love live musical theatre? You two might get a kick out of catching a Valentine’s Day matinee performance.

“Feisty, frothy and fun, two one-act musicals reveal how danger and illusion can spark the fiery flames of attraction. From a delightful romp to elude sexual ennui in turn-of-the-century Vienna to a modern look at affection and disaffection of two Manhattan couples summering in the Hamptons, this Off-Broadway sensation that successfully moved to Broadway is a sweetheart of a musical perfect for the Abdo New River Room’s intimate stage.”

Valentine’s Evening at Turnberry Isle Miami
When: 6:30 pm – 12:00 am
Where: Turnberry Isle Miami
19999 W. Country Club Dr.
Aventura, FL 33180
Price: $250 per couple

You can reserve a moonlit couple’s cabana, enjoy champagne and roses by the pool with a private table and a 5-course pre fixe menu. Turnberry Isle Miami has three different Valentine’s special resort packages, but you can’t beat some quality time alone with your honey in a beautiful setting.

A President’s Day Eve (Valentine’s Day) Improv Show
When: 8:00 pm – 10:00 pm
Where: Just the Funny Theatre
3119 Coral Way
Coral Gables, FL 33145
Price: $10 (online pre-sale) or $12 (at the door) per ticket

Maybe you two like to break away from the standard Valentine’s Day stuff and you’d rather laugh together. A Miami Improv Festival team, Society Circus Players are appearing in their first full-length show of 2016. Live, hilarious, and unscripted comedy is a fun way to make your Valentine’s Day date a memorable one.

Brunch & Bubbles
When: 11:00 am – 4:00 pm
Where: Cibo Wine Bar
45 Miracle Mile
Coral Gables, FL 33134
Price: $35 per person

This year, Valentine’s Day falls on a Sunday. Not ideal. So if you can’t spend the evening with your date, opt for an early celebration instead! An Italian brunch buffet that includes made-to-order eggs, fresh juices, traditional breakfast items, a waffle station, pizza station, fresh handmade pastas, seafood, antipasti, cheese, and artisan breads and pastries. And of course; half-off bottles of champagne.

Eyes WIIIIIIDE Shut – Valentine’s Day Funtasm
When: 7:00 pm
Where: 11040 SW 217th Terrace
Miami, Florida 33170
Price: $27.37–$64.29

Up for a very risque adventure? If you’re game to try just about anything, and if you’re tired of the same old Valentine’s Day routine, this is the event for you. A footnote in the event description says, “This one is for the Singles who are ready to mingle…and the Couples who enjoy them. Mask REQUIRED, but as always…Clothing OPTIONAL.”

Romantic Dinner and Cinema
When: 7:00 pm – 12:00 pm
Where: Bianca at Delano South Beach
1685 Collins Avenue, Miami Beach
Price: $100 per person

The classic “dinner-and-a-movie” date just got a major upgrade. Enjoy a three-course meal where menu highlights include lobster risotto, Insalata Rossa with red oak leaf, radicchio, grapefruit, pomegranate seeds, beets and goat cheese, then a chocolate mousse dome and a glass of champagne to top it all off. While you dine in the Delano orchard, they’ll be screening romantic classic cinema in the moonlight.
