We’ve beaten a week of overcast mornings and moody weather to make it to the second week of February, and things are looking up! The sun’s managed to peek through, afternoons are becoming balmy, and everyone’s starting to make plans for the Valentine’s Day weekend. Fear not if you’ve got nobody to engage in a lovefest with – Galentine’s goes just as hard as date night with your significant other.
There’s some stuff going on through the week – there’s a couple of T20 World Cup matches being hosted at the Arun Jaitley Cricket Stadium, for instance, and Bharat Rang Mahotsav is on as well, with more than one play lined up everyday at Mandi House. Solid shopping opportunities at the Surajkund Mela, and of course, some stellar exhibitions at NGMA and the Humayun’s Tomb museum.
The weekend, though, is reserved for stuffing your face at the city’s best restaurants and hanging out with friends. Catch the two-day workshop organised by Opn Art House x Gaysi Family at Max Mueller Bhavan for some artsy-crafty fun, or check out some of these bowling alleys in Delhi if you’re planning to head out with a big bunch. It’s also just really great weather for being outdoors and doing nothing, and while Delhi’s famous for its monuments, some stunning heritage sites have flown under the radar, and are worth checking out if you don’t like crowds.
Here’s everything you need to plan a week that’ll keep you busy round the clock.
