Wondering how to celebrate Valentine’s Day 2015? These three local options are fun, thematic and low-pressure:
1. rain city chronicles: Vancouver’s greatest storytelling night pairs up with SAD Mag for its second annual night of romantic woe. Gather to laugh and commiserate as talented speakers explore the night’s theme: unlucky in love. February 11th at Famee Firlane, 2605 E. Pender St., Vancouver, www.raincitychronicles.com
2. people’s prom: Back for its 15th year, this event is annually packed with folks (it’s great for singles) in whacky outfits. Conceptually, it’s the prom you wish you’d attended in high school, so expect ’70s-style dresses and plenty o’ dancing. Febuary 14th at Astorino’s, 1739 Venables St., Vancouver, http://peoplesprom.resist.ca
3. chocolat at MARKET: Treat yourself to an extra-sweet movie night with a Valentine’s Day screening of Chocolat. Johnny Depp in his prime, plus champagne, gourmet popcorn and a five-course dinner inspired by the movie. It really can’t go wrong. Feburary 13th and 14th at MARKET by Jean-Georges, 1115 Alberni St., Vancouver, www.facebook.com/MarketbyJeanGeorgesVancouver
