Book A Perth Hotel
A relatively easy to organise first Valentine’s Day idea, why not book a home away from home at a Perth hotel.
Many Perth hotels offer their own Valentines specials, some even include champagne and a candlelit dinner in the price of the room. Booking a hotel for the night is a great option for new couples that have left organising their Valentine’s Day to the last minute.
See a Rooftop Movie
Operated by the producers of Fringe World Festival, Rooftop Movies offer an open-air movie experience with a peaceful and romantic ambience for new couples.
If it’s your first Valentine’s Day in Perth, head to a local restaurant before cuddling up with your Valentine under the stars to watch a rooftop movie. End the night with a slow walk through Northbridge, which is usually lit up and thriving during the Fringe World Festival.
Get in quick to book a premium couple lounge this Valentine’s Day.

Sing the Night Away with Couples Karaoke
Karaoke is a great ice-breaker for new couples, sure to be full of fun, laughter and very average singing. Try some classic couples duets such as ‘I Got You Babe’, ‘Don’t Go Breaking My Heart’ and ‘Summer Nights’.
But don’t even think about practising! The best part about karaoke is trying to sing the lyrics as they quickly appear on the screen. Karaoke is sure to make for a memorable first Valentine’s Day date.
