Visit Leeds the city’s official tourism body, has released a top 10 things to do this Valentine’s Day:
1. Book a box at Leeds Grand Theatre for Opera North’s spellbinding performance of La Boheme.
2. Hold hands as you ice skate on the UK’s largest temporary ice rink The Ice Cube and warm up afterwards with a mug of hot chocolate!
3. Your funny Valentine will love nothing more than a few giggles at The HiFi Club comedy night.
4. Take half an hour out to visit the Elemis Spapod at Harvey Nichols. Highly skilled therapists perform power-booster facials in the world’s first intelligent massage chair.
5. For a special Valentine’s night treat pick up some lingerie at the risqué Agent Provocateur boutique in the Victoria Quarter.
6. If you’re thinking about popping the question visit the Amore jewellery showcase at Leeds Craft Centre & Design Gallery for unique, affordable pieces.

8. Experience James Turrell’s Skyspace artwork at sunset followed by a delicious evening meal at the Yorkshire Sculpture Park.
9. If you fancy a romantic meal with lively entertainment book a table at Bibi’s Italianissimo restaurant and enjoy the 9- piece ‘Schwing’ band playing classic tunes to get you up and dancing.
10. Snuggle up with your loved one at one of the UK’s oldest cinemas The Hyde Park Picture House showing both the heart-warming French favourite Amelie and touching Norwegian vampire flick Let The Right One In over the Valentines weekend.
