Galentine’s isn’t exactly groundbreaking, but somehow this year, every concept store, café and restaurant in Egypt has collectively decided it’s the moment.

From Pilates followed by an “abstract brunch” to nail sessions powered by electrolytes instead of espresso, the city has entered its soft-launch self-care era. Consider this your slightly unserious, highly curated guide to doing Galentine’s in Egypt.

‘Habaytak’ Cultural Evening With CairoScene, Daybreak & Samakblaban

📍 Zawya Cinema & Secret Downtown Cairo Location

📅 Thu February 12th | 7PM-1AM

After its debut in Paris, ‘Habaytak’ is landing in Downtown Cairo – held in partnership with CairoScene (yay, us!), Daybreak, and Samakblaban.

A celebration of Arab love in all its forms, defined by melodramatic mosalsals and kitschy WhatsApp stickers to secret car dates and Abdelhalim + Tul8te hits on repeat, the evening promises short films, a Q&A with filmmakers, HiFi sets by Daybreak & @solimangaa, bites, a matchmaking game (with prizes involved), and more.

Secure your spot fast by messaging Kalam Aflam on Instagram.

‘Grab Your Loved One’ Heart-Shaped Cakes Workshop

📍 Wellnest Space, New Cairo

📅 Thu February 12th | 7PM-9PM

Take your sister, best gal pal, or even your partner (only if you want to skip ladies’ night for this one) to this workshop in collaboration with Keika, where you’ll learn to make heart-shaped cakes from scratch – with someone you love.

‘Paint & Sip’ With Artsy

📍 Bean N’ Bun, Mivida

📅 Fri February 13th | 4PM-6PM

This is for artsy ones (pun-intended). Artsy & Bean N’ Bun are teaming up for a paint-and-sip session where all that matters is your canvas (you can choose between plate or mirror painting), your girlies, and – of course – a drink in hand (and yes, it’s FREE!).

Book your spot fast by messaging Bean N’ Bun on Instagram.

Be My Galentine’s: Pizza Nights & Fun Workshops

📍 Basilico, Kafr Abdo

📅 February 13th-14th

Bascilico is hosting not one, but two exciting workshops with Artea: candle-making followed by pizza night on February 13th, and hairbrush decorating followed by – you guessed it – another pizza night on February 14th.

It’s a day of girl-bonding, pizza slices, and creative fun, all wrapped up in a single event. Reserve your spot by messaging 01005142228 on WhatsApp.

📍 District 5’s Mandarine Koueider Deli

📅 Sat February 14th | 12PM-1:30PM

We get that Galentine’s is all about celebrating your gal pals—but don’t forget, you should be your own #1 gal pal. That’s why Mandarine Koueider Deli is hosting an event honouring the most important relationship of all: the one with yourself and your body.

Unwind with a full-body flow Pilates session designed to lift your mood and energize your heart, then refuel with a post-class brunch featuring fresh sandwiches and cold-pressed juices. Pink or red dress code applies, and don’t forget to bring your favorite mat!

Held in partnership with Denimme, this spot lets you skip the usual pillow fights and get hands-on with something more creative: denim.

Cake Decorating Workshop

📍 Bean N’ Bun, Madinaty

📅 Sat February 24th | 2PM

If you thought that was Bean N’ Bun’s only event – guess again! Over at its Madinaty branch, 10 days after Valentine’s Day (because celebrating your beloved or bestie doesn’t need a set date), Hana Bakes is leading a Cake-Decorating Workshop. And in true Bean N’ Bun Galentine’s fashion, there’s a free drink too – hot chocolate, yum!
