According to Urban Dictionary, Galentine’s Day is celebrated on February 13 – the day before Valentine’s Day or Valentine’s Day Eve. The day of appreciation is set aside to honour the female friendships that we so heavily rely on. Whether you're single and ready to mingle or looking for a fun way to celebrate with friends we've compiled a list of events that you can attend and celebrate your besties.
