In this magnificent city, where architecture is a spectacle for the eyes every day, it’s not hard to find romantic places and inspiration to talk about love! After all, Bordeaux is known as the “little Paris” and everyone knows that Paris is the city of love, so we must be a little too. Whether you’re in a relationship or not (giving love to yourself is also part of Valentine’s Day), Bordeaux will charm you in February 2025 with activities that are just as fun and surprising as in previous months!
1. Try one of France’s best restaurants
According to The Fork‘s top 100 restaurants in France, Bordeaux’s Michelin restaurants Arcada (average price: €30) and Madame B (average price: €39) rank 11th and 12th respectively! There’s a reason why Bordeaux is famous for its gastronomy!

2. See the must-see piece “Une vie sur mesure
“Une vie sur mesure” is the poignant, musical play performed by Pierre Duchesne and directed by Stéphane Batlle.

After more than 1,000 performances and 300,000 spectators, this work has become a classic of contemporary theater, acclaimed for its humor, poetry and virtuosity!
