Posted by Chantal Gagnon on


Galentine's Day is a holiday that has been gaining popularity in recent years, particularly among women. It's a day to celebrate the special bond between female friends, and is typically celebrated on February 13th, the day before Valentine's Day. The holiday was first popularized by the TV show Parks and Recreation, in which the character Leslie Knope throws a party for her female friends to celebrate their friendship and love for one another.

The rise of Galentine's Day can be attributed to the increasing emphasis on female empowerment and the importance of female friendships. Women are recognising the value of their friendships with other women and are taking the opportunity to celebrate and appreciate those relationships. This holiday is a way to show love and appreciation for the strong, supportive women in our lives, who often play a vital role in our personal and professional lives.

Galentine's Day celebrations can take many forms, from a casual brunch with friends to a formal dinner party. The key is to gather together with your female friends and celebrate your bond.
