Feb 14, 2026 10:00AM ● By Kenzie Shiver
Today is Valentine’s Day, and across the North Country, the day is about more than just roses and chocolates – it is a celebration of love in all its forms.
Whether you are planning a romantic night out, or a cozy evening at home, celebrating friendships and family, Valentine’s Day offers a moment to slow down and appreciate the people who make life sweeter. Local restaurants are rolling out special menus, shops are stocked with thoughtful gifts, and communities are embracing the spirit of connection that defines this time of year.
But Valentine’s Day is not only about couples. It is also a chance to show love to friends, neighbors, coworkers, and even yourself. From Galentine’s get togethers to random acts of kindness, the holiday continues to evolve into a celebration of caring, gratitude, and community.
NBC Watertown is proud to be part of the moments that bring people together – sharing stories, traditions, and local events that highlight what makes the North Country feel like home.
However you choose to celebrate, may your Valentine’s Day be filled with warmth, laughter, and love.
