Gifts for Her Gifts for Him Gifts for Mum Gifts for Dad Gifts for Couples Unique GiftsWant to make Valentine's Day 2025 truly unforgettable? Ditch the predictable presents and embrace meaningful gift experiences instead. From gnocchi-making classes in South Yarra to wheel throwing workshops in Brunswick, there are so couples activities and Valentine gift suggestions Melbourne-wide. Whether you're searching for gifts for him or her, our curated collection of Valentines activities has something for every couple. With a wide range of creative and romantic experiences across Melbourne, you're sure to find the perfect way to connect, have fun, and celebrate love. And of course, there are plenty of fun things do for in Melbourne for Galentines too.

Melbourne isn't just a city – it's a playground for couples (and friends!) seeking unique ways to celebrate their connection. Whether you're in a new relationship or you've been together for years, Australia's capital of culture boasts plenty of swoon-worthy Valentines activities and date night ideas. Why not combine one of our gift experiences with a romantic dinner at NOMAD, Maha or Farmer's Daughter? Prefer daytime date ideas? Before you head off to your couples' painting class or pottery workshops, fuel your creativity with brunch at Florian, Ima Asa Yoru or Juniper.

The best Valentine's Day gifts in 2025 are shared experiences. Unlike material objects, experience gifts promote connection on a deeper level. Treating your special someone to an activity is a great way to strengthen your relationship, spark romance and create shared memories. For Melbourne-based couples, the city's vibrant arts scene provides the perfect backdrop for those looking to soak up some quality time. Here are a few of our fave Valentines gift ideas, sorted into three categories: art and craft, food, nature.
1. Wheel Throwing Class: Clay Soirée, Abbotsford
Learn wheel throwing and create matching (or not!) pottery pieces that will become cherished V-Day mementos.
"A perfect date night activity. The instructions were easy to follow. Super fun and easy." – Paige
2. Paint and sip, Port Melbourne
Bask in the glow of your inner artist with this unique paint and sip class in the dark. Combining good vibes, BYO vino and low-key learning, it's one of the best Galentines ideas in Melbourne.
"A group of us Irish girls booked this to meet new people and have some drinks and socialise. It was a really good night. The teacher was so lovely and really helped with those of us who were rusty in the art department. Would highly recommend to anyone – whether it's for a group, date night or just a couple of friends looking for something fun to do." - Nicole
3. Beginners Macrame Wall Hanging Workshop
Learn to weave intricate wall hangings that will bring bohemian warmth to your home.
Foodies will be pleased to know that Melbourne's workshop scene is a feast for senses. Here are three of the tastiest Valentines gifts to buy in 2025:
1. Pasta-making Masterclass, Preston
Swap your Valentine's dinner date for a pasta-making class and learn how to make tagliatelle and ravioli from scratch. Bellissimo!
"My partner and I had such a lovely time attending this class! Marina is knowledgeable, kind and very helpful. We learned a lot and we are now confident about recreating the pasta we made at home. We also got gifted the flour and tool to make pasta, a very good value for money. Great experience!" – Micah & Megan
2. Dumpling Cooking Class, Abbotsford
Learn the art of crafting delicious dumplings while sharing laughs and creating delectable memories.
3. Chocolate Making Workshop, Malvern
Is it just us, or is there something romantic about the art of chocolate making?
"Sal's chocolate making workshop was a great way to understand the fundamentals of chocolate making. The class was small so we could all get a lot of hands on experience and have fun. Everything was provided and was of a high quality and the chocolate is delicious. My wife and I made the workshop into a date night experience and we both really enjoyed it and would like to try more of these workshops to increase our skills. The bonus is getting to take home all of our own chocolate creations." – Guido
Watch your love grow and blossom with these unique experience gifts for greenies:
1. Vertical Succulent Garden Workshop, Cheltenham
Learn to make a succulent garden that hangs on the wall in this hands-on workshop by Talk Dirt 2 Me.
2. Mini Moss Terrarium Workshop
Create a miniature ecosystem together, symbolising your growing relationship. Leave feeling relaxed, revived and inspired!
"My partner and I attended the tipsy terrarium workshop for our two year anniversary and it was amazing. Reneé was super nice and helpful and the overall vibe was super chill. Well worth the money spent. 10/10." – Camille
3. Plant Parenthood 101, Brunswick
Not ready (or keen) to become human parents? Become a better plant parent at this indoor workshop with The Plant Whisperer.

In a world of material possessions, our Melbourne Valentine's activities offer something far more valuable: memories. When you choose an experience over a traditional gift, you're creating opportunities for connection and quality time. Whether you learn to throw clay on the wheel or solder silver at a jewellery-making class, you'll leave with unique stories to reminisce about for years to come. Not sure which Valentines ideas are right for your partner? Consider these tips when choosing an experience from our selection of Valentine's day events in Melbourne:
Know your partner's interests: Choose an experience that aligns with their passions. If your boyfriend loves Italian food, a fitting Valentine's gift for him is a gnocchi or pasta making class.
Consider your relationship stage: New couples might prefer relaxed social activities while long-term partners might enjoy more intimate experiences.
Think about comfort and energy levels: Some people love being centre stage while others prefer more low-key date ideas. If you girlfriend is the life of the party, a fun Valentine's gift for her is a cocktail-making class.
Respect your budget: Not everyone wants to spend big bucks on Valentine's Day – and that's okay! Find an experience gift that aligns with your financial goals.
The beauty of experience-based gifts is that they continue to give long after the day is over. No matter what you choose, the skills you learn, the laughs you share, and the memories you create will become part of your shared story. (Cute!) Valentine's Day in Melbourne is about so much more than traditional romance. It's about connection, creativity, and shared experiences. Whether you're crafting a ceramic piece, mixing cocktails or learning how to make mosaics, you're creating memories that will last far beyond Feb 14th. Ready to make your Valentines Day in Melbourne unforgettable? Your romantic adventure awaits...
