10 fantastically fun things to do in February

GOOD NEWS… we made it through January. A disastrous month of being boozeless/meatless/moneyless is behind us and it’s time to let loose once again. From kebab-fuelled festivals to Super Bowl blowouts and real-life dancing on ice, DesignMyNight has rounded up the very best events to make your February pop.

Celebrate Valentine's at Ballie Ballerson - London

From Valentine’s to Galentine’s and everything in between, this Shoreditch spot is throwing the ultimate bash come February 14th. In true ‘Thank u, next’ style, they’ve filled a giant ball pit with hundreds of pink balls and there’s even a hanging swing… you know, for the gram. If that’s not enough, then a retro cocktail and cheeseburger spring roll should do it.

Rekindle your love of kebabs at this festival- Birmingham

If your idea of a kebab is a 2am trip to the only greasy takeaway that’s still open, then you need to hit up Taste & Liquor’s Kebab Festival. Breathing a new lease of life into the beloved Middle Eastern dish, Kebabingham is back for its second year. It’s all hearty fillings, finger-lickin' food and creative cocktails.

Take on this fiery Birdbox challenge - Glasgow

You’ve seen the movie, now it’s time to take on the challenge. Get down to Buck’s Bar where the chicken-focussed favourite challenges you to a game of wing roulette. Don your blindfold, do your best Sandra Bullock impression and prepare to devour 12 wings. There’s a fiery Nashville Hot XXX hiding within, so you’ll be wanting that glass of milk and fries.
