Yes, Bengaluru has some of the best cocktail spots, breweries & food in the country, but there’s a lot you can do and plan for your special someone in Bengaluru that’ll truly impress them.
From curated exhibitions at museums, and spaces that help you engage with local artists to walks at science galleries, here are some sweet things to do ideas that have something for everyone 👌🏽
If they’re nerdy 🤓
If you want to spend the day without burning a hole in your pocket and walk around while you observe & interact with art & science, then Science Gallery, Sanjay Nagar is the perfect choice. Their exhibitions & workshops focus on ‘bringing science back to culture’ and are best enjoyed with their experienced mediators. You could also visit the incredible Museum of Art & Photography (MAP), Shantala Nagar. Spread over 5 floors, its 44,000 square-foot area houses a café, a rooftop restaurant, an auditorium, a library, a conservation centre and 5 galleries. What else do you need for a date?
If they love their wine 🍷
Wine in Progress Bar is a snug, 12-seater wine bar overlooking the picturesque open courtyard at Courtyard. It breaks bougie barriers with friendly bartenders who pour premium wines by the glass and never talk down to you. Book a table for an easy, fun & casual wine tasting with great music & nibbles.
If they love animals 🐶
The sweetest date idea for animal lovers! Take a lovely guided tour through Prani: The Pet Sanctuary, a labour of love spearheaded by experienced conservationists Sanjeev Pednekar and Kartik Prabhu. If you expect to see dogs and cats, you’re in for a surprise — the sanctuary rescues and rehabilitates horses, hedgehogs, birds, terrapins, and even emus.
If they love trying new things 🎈
There’s a certain charm in trying things out for the first time with someone special.
Indulge in an intimate pottery-making experience on a Private Pottery Date set in a cosy studio where you and your partner can explore the art of clay together. Spend an evening learning how to skate at the supercool Cave Skatepark built by and for skaters. You could also head to The Courtyard Cultural Centre, where every week there’s something different happening. From movie screenings to workshops, food pop-ups & lots more, you can check out their special events here.
