Virtual Valentine's Day party for work
A virtual Valentine's Day party for work is one hour on video about friendship and thanks, not romance: a chocolate, candle or flower kit made together with a live host, or a hosted gratitude game. In 2027 it lands on Thursday, February 11 or Friday, February 12, and nobody has to share anything personal.

Valentine's Day 2027 is a Sunday
So the work party moves to the end of the week before. What else is on that weekend:
- Valentine's Day is Sunday, February 14, 2027, so the work party lands on Thursday, February 11 or Friday, February 12.
- Super Bowl LXI is the same Sunday. If you plan a game day party on Friday, hold this one on Thursday.
- Monday, February 15, 2027 is Washington's Birthday, a federal holiday, so a long weekend starts Friday for many teams.
- If many people take that Friday off, Thursday afternoon is the safer slot.
Dates from the NFL's 2026-27 important dates and the OPM federal holiday list. Doing both? See the virtual Super Bowl party.

A party, a gift, or both
