Next Valentine's Day (2027)
Sunday, February 14, 2027
Valentine's Day falls on February 14 every year. It is an observance, not a federal holiday.
About Valentine's Day
Valentine's Day on February 14 is a day for showing appreciation to partners, friends and family. Cards, flowers, chocolate and dinner out are the usual traditions, and many classrooms hold card exchanges.
The day carries the name of Saint Valentine, a figure from the early church, and its link with romance grew during the Middle Ages. It is not a public holiday, so schools, offices and banks keep normal hours. Restaurants book up quickly, so it pays to mark the date well ahead of time.
How the Date Is Set
Valentine's Day is held on February 14 every year. The date stays the same every year, while the weekday moves forward by one day, or by two after a leap day.
