Whether spending it single, coupled up or married, there’s plenty of ways to show your love in Las Vegas. Make this Valentine’s Day—or weekend—one to remember with these nine options.
Mariah Carey
1. Have a “One Sweet Day” with Mariah Carey”
The R&B songstress spreads extra love on Valentine’s Day, ”lambly” love, that is (a phrase used to describe her devoted fans). On Feb. 14, see the diva in concert with VIP perks including a front orchestra ticket to her 8 p.m. show, unlimited champagne and passed hors d’oeuvres from 10 p.m.-midnight at Fizz (next to The Colosseum) and a meet and greet with the star. (Caesars Palace, 866.320.9763)
2. Rendezvous with an art and wine pairing
The Bellagio Gallery of Fine Art’s current exhibit, Picasso: Creatures and Creativity, runs through Feb. 14. But before that you can turn your art gallery trip into a date night with the gallery’s monthly Art & Wine: A Perfect Paring event on Feb. 10 from 5-7 p.m., a night filled with engaging art discussions and tempting libations. (Bellagio, 702.693.7871)
3. Unleash your sensual side
Zumanity is one of those racy, yet entertaining shows that can be enjoyed by both singles and couples. With provocative cabaret scenes, jaw-dropping acrobatic sets and an onstage mock orgy in the finale, Zumanity entices the mind, body and soul for two hours and beyond. Reserve the duo sofas (which are sold as a pair); by being so close, you might become part of the show. (New York-New York, 702.740.6815)
4. Party and put a ring on it
Besides the Candyland-themed event on Feb. 13, Ghostbar Dayclub offers plenty of VIP experiences like the Put A Ring On It package. You and your significant other can enjoy a two-night stay in a Sky Villa, a private dinner for 10 guests at N9NE Steakhouse, 10 bottles of Cristal, a marriage ceremony on the Ghostbar patio, your marriage announcement in bright lights on the outdoor marquee and a social media butler to capture the whole thing. (Palms, 702.942.6832)
Drunk in Love
5. Get drunk in love
Beyoncé’s famed song with her hubby Jay-Z makes it onto Cabo Wabo Cantina’s cocktail menu, but only for Valentine’s Day. On Feb. 14, sip on a glass (or two) of the specialty drink “Drunk in Love,” a concoction of the French liqueur St-Germain, ginger beer, lime juice, Monin Wildberry syrup and champagne with a garnish of strawberries and Amarena cherries. (Miracle Mile Shops at Planet Hollywood Resort, 702.385.2226)
6. Take your sweetie out for sweets
At Jean Philippe Pâtisserie, choose from a selection of decadent treats like fresh crêpes, coconut macarons, peanut brittle, chocolate turtles, chocolate-covered marshmallows, chocolate cognac truffles, mini chocolate bars, biscotti, fruit pound cake, an assortment of cookies and so much more. (Aria, 877.230.2742)
7. Aboard the throwback love train
The annual Valentine’s Day weekend Love Affair Concert gets bigger and better with its lineup of old-school R&B acts. On Feb. 13, some of the performers include Midnight Star (“Freak-A-Zoid”), The Emotions (“Best of My Love”), Heatwave (“Boogie Nights”), Evelyn “Champagne” King (“Love Come Down”) and Color Me Badd (“I Wanna Sex You Up”). (Orleans Arena, 702.284.7777)
8. Travel to Paris, France
Couples looking to strike a romantic spark can visit the Eiffel Tower Restaurant from Feb. 12-14. A Valentine’s Day VIP package for two includes a gala dinner accompanied with wine or champagne, breathtaking views of the Las Vegas Strip, a keepsake photo, a dozen roses, Eiffel Tower chocolate bars and a Helicopter Strip Tour or Limousine Strip Tour. (Paris, 702.946.7000)
9. Romance all around
Get into a mellow mood this Valentine’s Day with the Sayers Jazz Series. The recurring concerts in The Sayers Club feature a variety of artists (Las Vegas’ sax man Vince Preister recently took a turn). This week, head in on Feb. 12 or Feb. 14 at 7 p.m. for the latest incarnation. The lush intimate club, studded with leather couches, makes a perfect place to curl up with your sweetie or hang out with some of your best friends. (SLS Las Vegas, 702.761.7618)
