Date Night Watch Ideas

Make your next date night unforgettable with a cozy evening of movies, performances, and culinary adventures. Whether you’re spending time with a partner, a friend, or just yourself, the Library has everything you need to create the perfect atmosphere.

Romantic Films to Set the Mood

Access Video on Demand and Valentine’s Day are the perfect pairing! Explore titles like Kiss Me Kate, Girlfriend Material, and Angel Baby.

Looking for something extra special? Take your date to the opera or ballet—without leaving your couch! Medici.TV offers thousands of performances from around the world. Best of all, it won’t cost you a thing (except maybe some takeout).

Prefer a more traditional romance? Check out over 250 Hallmark romance movies available on DVD.

Feeling bold or looking for a laugh? Turn up the heat with a romantic comedy or television series in our collection.

Get Literary with Love

Woo your partner with a little poetic flair. Bloom’s Literature offers access to timeless works like Love’s Labour’s Lost, As You Like It, or An Ideal Husband. If you’re in the mood for more wit and whimsy, try Lysistrata.

Feeling inspired to learn the language of love? Brush up on your high school French or start fresh with MANGO Languages, which offers lessons in over 70 languages, including French, Spanish, and Italian.

Cook Up a Romantic Feast

Want to make date night extra special? Cook a gourmet meal for your loved one—or, better yet, prepare it together. Access Video on Demand features recipe tutorials with step-by-step instructions for over 190 dishes, from smoked salmon to grilled chops.

Cooking together adds a personal touch and creates memories you’ll both cherish. Pair your homemade meal with a great film, and you’ll have an evening to remember.

Whether your ideal date night includes a romantic movie, a night at the (virtual) ballet, or a shared culinary experience, the Library is your ultimate resource. With so many options, your next date night will be fun and meaningful.

Nail date night with entertainment, creativity, and love—all from the comfort of home.
