In this Things2do guide, you will understand why everyone can celebrate the month of love; it’s the month of love, so why do we always need someone to share it with and fail to love ourselves in the same way? So get ready to discover some of the most amazing things to do alone in namma Chennai for Valentine’s 2023.

1A Solo Movie Date

Going on a solo movie date is one of the best ideas to chill and have fun alone, not worrying about being judged. You might feel a little awkward at first, but you will gradually become comfortable and enjoy being in your own company. Now that there is a newly opened theatre inside Chennai Airport, it’s the best time to check that out. Get a ticket to a new film you’ve been dying to see, splurge on some popcorn and candy, and have a date with yourself. 

Location: PVR Aero Hub, Chennai International Airport, Meenambakkam, Chennai. 

2Buy something Nice for Yourself

Do you have something you’ve been dying to get for a long time? It’s always a nice gesture to shower someone you love with gifts, but it’s equally important to honour and celebrate yourself. Doing nice things for yourself is not only necessary, but it’s a little reminder that you can enjoy life. Take a deep breath, today’s the day to really treat yourself to something you’ve always wanted. 

Ideas: New set of summer clothes, upgrade your earphones, skin care, back massager or even new shoes. 

3Enjoy Live Screening & Beer 

Spend the night having some fun by heading to your favourite sports bar in the city where you can lay back and chill with a beer watching sports. Isn’t it cool to always be in a crowd while watching a sport because you can scream with your whole heart when your favourite team scores? Here are a few sports bars in Chennai with live screenings. 

-The Cycle Gap, Adyar 

-Radio Room, MRC Nagar 

-Off The Record, Nungambakkam 

-Mount Road Social, Royapettah

4Go to a Stand up Comedy Show

Watching your go-to standup shows on YouTube or Netflix may be a fun way to end the night before hitting the bed, but going out of your way to attend a live performance can create an unforgettable experience. It relieves stress and is also a great way to spend time with your own self not worrying about the world but just living in the moment laughing out loud. 

5Host a Singles Only House Party
