A romantic retro night out

The Dreamboats bring their high-energy, retro charm to The Living Arts Centre on Valentine’s Day for a night packed with the feel-good sounds of the ’50s and ’60s. Their Mississauga stop offers an exclusive hometown moment, giving audiences the chance to see The Dreamboats perform in the city where the band was formed. You can also enjoy a buffet dinner before the show steps away from the theatre.

Tickets are still available for the Mississauga show at 8 p.m.

Skate under the stars

Enjoy skating as a family or hand‑in‑hand under the city lights. Mississauga’s outdoor ice rinks offer a magical backdrop for families, friends and couples looking to enjoy the winter weather. With rinks open across the city, it’s a good way to add some fun to your Valentine’s Day.

Art inspired connection

Tap into your creative side with a visit to the Art Gallery of Mississauga. Whether you’re seasoned art lovers or simply looking to try something new, the gallery adds a beautiful cultural touch to your Valentine’s Day.

Fall in love with your local Library

In February, we’re celebrating Love your Library month so mark your calendar and plan a visit to your nearest library location to share the love! Explore fun, creative Valentine-themed arts and crafts events hosted by Mississauga Library, perfect for youth looking to get inspired with hands-on fun.

Winter trails and romantic walks

Mississauga’s winter trails are the ideal setting to enjoy time together with no reservations required. Explore the serene Lakeview winter walking trail, take in scenic waterfront views, or wander through local parks for a romantic retreat.
