What the Heck Is Galentine’s Day? A Brief History and Why You Should Totally Do It

Leslie Knope

Whether you’re head-over-heels or burnt out on love, Galentine’s Day is something we all need a little more of.


So, what the heck is Galentine’s Day? It’s understandable you’d ask, especially if you’ve never watched the show Parks and Recreation. Simply put, Galentine’s Day is a holiday invented by Parks and Rec character Leslie Knope (played by Amy Poehler). This can’t-be-missed holiday happens every year, exactly one day before Valentine’s Day—so don’t worry, you can still enjoy that candlelit dinner with your significant other.


Still confused? Leslie Knope weighs in:


"Oh, it's only the best day of the year. Every February 13th, my lady friends and I leave our husbands and our boyfriends at home, and we just come and kick it, breakfast-style. Ladies celebrating ladies. It's like Lilith Fair, minus the angst. Plus frittatas."


It’s basically like Valentine’s Day, but celebrated with your best gal pals. Because your girlfriends deserve a holiday that’s not you sending a last-minute card two days after their birthday. And since Galentine’s Day is becoming more and more popular as each year passes, we thought you should know about it! Not sure how to celebrate? We’ve got your back.

4 Ways to Celebrate Galentine’s Day This Year

1. Let’s Have Brunch!

  • REAL LEGITIMATE CRYTPO RECOVERY AGENT

    I’m one of those few people who invested in the cryptocurrency market and was hoping to make enough profits after my retirement. Unfortunately, I had invested in a platform that was out to steal from me, I lost around $275,000 to this platform excluding the promised profits. I had lost every penny I invested into it including the money I had to borrow from friends. I thought it was all over until I came across a Cryptocurrency recovery expert, ETHICSREFINANCE SERVICE, who helped me recover my money from these fake investors. It took ETHICSREFINANCE 48 hours to recover my money and I was able to track down these people. I?m truly grateful for their service and I highly recommend them to anyone with the same problem.
