Valentine’s Day Ideas in London

Whether you’re celebrating with that special someone or you want to wine and dine with your pals this year, there’s nothing quite like heading to the heart of the capital. To share the love this Valentine’s Day.

From afternoon tea with spectacular views to cosying up in Cupid's pod, heading to the London Eye for Valentine’s Day is never a bad idea. 

A Relaxed Afternoon by the River

What could be better than enjoying Afternoon tea with a side of panoramas over the river? With Afternoon Tea on the London Eye, you can escape the bustle below to enjoy a taste of British indulgence with our delicious selection of traditional sandwiches, miniature meringues accompanied by the finest selection of teas and coffee. 

Available all year round, our Afternoon Tea is the perfect day out for two, especially if you’re on the lookout for unique Valentine’s Day ideas in London.

A Sky-High Moment at Sunset

The golden hour charm of the city reaches its peak around 4h30pm, and it’s one you don’t want to miss. One of the best vantage points for capturing those orange sunsets is while aboard one of 32 capsules, overlooking the iconic Houses of Parliament, London Bridge and the Thames. After a day spent traipsing through the busy open-air markets, gallery hopping and browsing high-end department stores, recouping from the day on the London Eye at golden hour makes for a very romantic date in London.

Unique Experiences in the Capsule

Incredible views and an intimate hideaway for two, all rolled into one. Cupid’s Pod is the perfect way to enjoy the city in style. With a choice of two unique experiences: the Couple’s Private Viewpoint or Proposal Pod, you can make Valentine's Day in London magical, wherever the night takes you. Top off your romantic evening in your private pod with the Champagne Experience.

A Romantic Evening on the South Bank

Why not extend the romance into the evening in one of London’s many popular restaurants? Like the Archduke, where you can enjoy live jazz music. Or while the evening is still young, take a stroll along the South Bank to enjoy the twinkle of the city lights on the riverbank.

Turn It Into a Full Day with Multiple Attractions

With plenty of things to do in London as a couple, why not make a day of it? 

With a multi-attraction pass, you can enjoy a day of sightseeing your way. And when it comes to a romantic date night in London, we think the River Cruise and London Eye combo tickets will go down a treat…

Planning Tips for Valentine’s Day in London

To ensure your Valentine’s Day plans go smoothly, we recommend booking tickets in advance to avoid the last-minute rush, familiarising yourself with the London Eye’s opening hours - especially if you want to avoid the peak - and checking your weather app twice.
