Does Colombia Celebrate Valentine's Day?

Do you know what happens in Colombia when February 14 comes around? Nothing.

That’s because they don’t celebrate Valentine’s Day in February. Instead, they celebrate the day of love and friendship – or Día de Amor y Amistad, as the Colombians fondly refer to it.

It’s a celebration that reminds Colombians of how blessed they are to have someone that genuinely loves them, whether it’s a friend or a lover. This day takes place on the third Saturday of September, where flower shops everywhere are sold out, and restaurants are brimming with diners.
