We’re pretty sure you’ve got Valentine’s Day on your radar — but if you’re looking for fresh ideas, we’ve rounded up fun (and very Columbus) ways to celebrate this weekend. And with Columbus in the spotlight as the backdrop for Netflix’s Love is Blind Season 10, there’s no shortage of themed events, date-night spots and can’t-miss plans around town. Plus, the Columbus Welcome Center is a great place for last-minute Valentine's Day shopping with exclusive merch from Ransom Supply, Valentine's Day-themed stuffed animals, local sweets and more.

If you love The Nutcracker, then you will love Trey McIntyre’s Peter Pan, which plays this weekend at the Ohio Theatre. With stunning sets and costumes by Emma Bailey (known for her work on Broadway’s SIX), the production blends punk energy and glam style to create a Neverland unlike any other. Daring choreography and a rebellious edge invite audiences to embrace their inner child, believe in magic and never grow up.

Welcome spring with inspiration and fresh ideas at the Central Ohio Home & Garden Show, February 14–22 at the Ohio Expo Center. Wander through nine Celebrate America-themed indoor gardens, connect with local experts for hands-on advice and discover everything you need to spark your next big project.

Celebrate Valentine’s Day with an evening of timeless music, powerful vocals and community pride at Love is Love — a special jazz concert presented by the Columbus Pride Jazz Band on Saturday, February 14, from 5 to 9 p.m.

The viral dance party Club 90s stops in Columbus this weekend at Newport Music Hall. With Friday’s show selling fast, a second night has been added for Saturday, February 14 at 9 p.m. This Heated Rivalry-themed setlist brings pop throwbacks, queer anthems, special edits and nonstop singalong energy.
