First date: 15 activity ideas

Ding! You've just matched with Jean-René, your Tinder crush. After a few seconds of excitement so intense it nearly gives you the jitters, you come back down to earth and start panicking. What outfit should I wear? Should I put on make-up? Should I bring Jean-Luc (my dog)? And most importantly... what are we going to do for our first date!? We've put together 15 original ideas for sharing the best possible moment together.

Walk in the park/botanical garden 🌿

To reconnect with nature and discover your countryside side.

Concert 🎸

Because fans of your idols are your idols (not entirely sure about that one).

Exhibition/Theatre 🎭

Whether the artistic creation is of quality or no, it'll definitely make for a great conversation starter. 😉

Afternoon snack 🍦

Food, and especially sugar, always brings people together, no?

Second-hand clothes shopping 🤠

10 minutes on the clock to create the most original look for each other!

Discover a beautiful view in nature or on a rooftop 🌅

Bonus: enjoying the sunrise or sunset.

Wine/beer tasting 🍺

To loosen tongues — in moderation, of course!

Waterside picnic 🍒

Each person prepares a small dish and shares their speciality with the other while enjoying the sound of the water lapping.

Farmers' market 🧑‍🌾

To explore a neighbourhood together and taste great local produce in a friendly atmosphere.

Painting/ceramics workshop 🍶

Using your hands to create something together — rather romantic, no?

"Games night (naughty ones) 🧸"

To be 100% safe, we recommend public places ( very exciting for naughty games, by the way )

Charity food round 🛒

What better way to build a relationship than on mutual support and solidarity?

Funfair 🎡

To reconnect with the children sleeping inside you, and enjoy a good sticky candy floss.

Roaming drinks 🍷

Buy a can from the corner shop (gold a bottle of wine if you're feeling fancy) and go for a walk. Gold grab a drink at a bar and move on to a new spot with each round (but be careful not to turn it into The World's End — we see what you're up to!)

Do something you have NEVER done, either of you 🤔

And there you have it — 15 ideas for a first date full of gentleness and kindness, which might just lead to a loooove story (or not — that's entirely up to you!).
