Friendship First: How To Have An Epic Galentine’s Day In North Dakota!
February 13th is Galentine’s Day! More than just another day on the calendar, it’s a time to celebrate the incredible friendships that keep us going. Made famous by Leslie Knope (Amy Poehler) on Parks and Recreation, this unofficial holiday is all about honoring the friends who stand by your side—whether you’re single or not.
And it’s catching on! A survey found 63% of single Gen Zers and Millennials believe friendships and self-love should be celebrated just as much as romance. Even 41% of men want their own version—Malentine’s Day, anyone?
Friendship is built on common interests, humor, and fun-loving attitudes—so no matter how you celebrate, cherish the time spent with those who make life brighter.
So, how can you celebrate Galentine’s Day in North Dakota? Try these ideas:
Brunch & Mimosas – Gather for waffles, coffee, and great conversation.
Ice Skating – Glide (or stumble) around the rink for a nostalgic winter outing.
Spa Day – Treat yourselves to massages, facials, or pedicures.
Game Night – Bunko, board games, or a potluck with your besties.
Movie Marathon – Watch classics like Steel Magnolias or comedies like Bridesmaids.
Karaoke & Wine Swap – Belt out tunes and toast to friendship.
Road Trip – Hit the road and explore somewhere new together. Matching Tattoos: Consider getting inked together as a symbol of your unbreakable bond—a permanent reminder of the friendship you share.

Keep an eye out for local events and promotions, but most importantly, cherish the time spent with your best friends—it's what Galentine's Day is all about.
