Going out to dinner
Great classic on any self-respecting date. Planning a memorable dinner party is a must. Here are a few ideas for a night out with flair:
Dinner on rails
Well of course among the ideas for a romantic date in Milan, you can’t miss dinner on the ATMosfera streetcar. An intimate dinner on an elegantly furnished old streetcar that takes you around the illuminated streets of the city. You will certainly get off on the right foot! For info, prices and reservations here.
Outdoor dining
With the warm weather, why not think about organizing a tête-à-tête dinner in some beautiful garden in Milan? Of elegant, beautiful restaurants with dreamy dehors Milan is full. There is only to choose from. (Males, be a gentleman and get a mosquito repellent, success guaranteed).
Dinner with a view
Even a little place with a view is not bad to make the atmosphere even more dreamy. Terraces, rooftops. You just have to choose. Impossible to make the wrong choice.
A park rendezvous
Milan may not have a lot of parks, but the ones it does have are noteworthy. Why not think about taking a walk in them? Even not necessarily in summer. The park is atmospheric all the time.
The hill at Portello Park
Among the ideas for a romantic date in Milan is definitely to meet or go together to the hillock located at the Portello Park ( where by the way there is the longest bench in the world ). Here in addition to being somewhat secluded, you have a pleasant view. That by any chance does not shoot a kiss?
We call it Ballet
For a refined and romantic date, there is We call it Ballet. An exciting show in a Milanese dream location, where the space is lit only by the LED lights of the dancers’ costumes. A modern reinterpretation that will transport you to a fairy-tale world for a dreamy evening.
Simplon Park and the Little Mermaid Bridge
When we talk about parks in Milan, we cannot avoid mentioning the one and only Sempione Park, not the largest in Milan but the most iconic. Beautiful, green and elegant. And then right here is the famous Bridge of the Little Mermaids, which has a long history, as well as being the first iron bridge ever built in Italy. But legend has it that a kiss up here leads to eternal love. Truth or fantasy? Try it to believe!
A tour of the garden of the Villa Belgiojoso Bonaparte
Another treat to include among the ideas for a romantic date in Milan is a tour of this Garden in the Palestro area. It is the park right behind the Gallery of Modern Art. An enchanted, magical place with statues, small temples, ponds and an English garden ( 20,000 square meters of botanical park). Be careful, however, there is a prohibition. You cannot enter unless accompanied by a child. In fact, the park is for the use of children under the age of 12, and adults can enter only if accompanied. But a break from the rule won’t hurt anyone, and a tour in here will melt the most stubborn hearts.
A concert together
Attending an event together in the city can also be romantic. Why not a concert perhaps?
A concert by candlelight
Deserving mention, first among all romantic ideas for a date in Milan, are Candlelight. Music concerts that re-enact great icons of musical history in a classical key, from Vasco Rossi, Coldplay, Jovanotti and Queen, to the great composers Bach, Mozart, Beethoven and the more contemporary Morricone and Einaudi. In short, the choice is vast for a romantic evening. Beautiful locations wrapped in the light of thousands of candles. Not to be missed. Find your favorite here.
A jazz concert
It might be nice to go out and have an evening of Jazz, it’s nice as a genre isn’t it? Kind of like those movies where there’s the venue, dim lights, a jazz duo, piano and sax or trumpet and double bass, maybe a warm voice accompanying the night, a cozy atmosphere, eyes to eyes. A drink and go. In Milan, the Blue Note is an institution where to go for an evening dedicated to this genre of music. Take a look at the activities.
A symphony concert in the temple of world opera
Here we want to venture. But a date at La Scala Theater is just 10 with flying colors, assuming the partner would be interested. Here, the concerts (but not only) are sublime and the ensemble resounding. So many musicians gathered together ready to fill heart and soul with their intense music. A look at the season I would give us, that something interesting is always there.
An event together
Many things can fit here, too. A visit to the museum, an exhibition. In short, spending time together doing something beautiful and educational is never time wasted.
