Local businesses are offering creative ways to safely celebrate Valentine’s Day this year. Whether you’re planning a romantic evening with your significant other or a fun day with your family and loved ones, there are plenty of things to do in Hamilton County.

Book a staycation at a local hotel for a change of scenery. The Cambria Hotel Westfield Valentine’s Staycation package includes 20 percent off standard rates plus free delivery of a romantic sushi dinner from Chiba. The Hilton Garden Inn Carmel Valentine’s Day Package features a discounted room rate, bottle of champagne and breakfast for two. Or splurge and book an overnight stay at the Hotel Carmichael and receive $50 to use for in-room dining or at Vivante French Eatery.

Celebrate at home with the Nickel Plate Arts “Take-Out Date Night Kit.” Each kit supports five or more Noblesville artists or arts businesses. Or, enjoy the “Couples Play” package from Moonshot Games and Books & Brews Noblesville, which includes a two-player game, appetizer, two entrees and six pack of beer.

Families can have fun in the kitchen at home with cookie decorating kits from Cone + Crumb or Rosie’s Place, or bundle up for a Heart Hike scavenger hunt at Ritchey Woods Nature Preserve Feb. 13.

If you celebrate “Galentine’s Day” on Feb. 13, check out Carmel City Center’s Valentine’s Day Sip + Shop and Food Drive or stream the virtual production of Civic Theatre’s Pride & Prejudice for a ladies’ night.
