Galentine's Day // London

This year, make something with your favourite people.

For a Galentine's Day in London that's easy to plan and fun to remember, book a private charm workshop with The Charmé Edit. Your group makes personalised phone cases or photo frames at your home or our Canary Wharf space (up to 12 guests). The minimum group is 4. Galentine's Day falls on 13 February, and weekends fill up, so enquire early.

Galentine's Day started as a joke on a sitcom and has become one of the best dates in the calendar: a day to celebrate your friends. In 2027, 13 February falls on a Saturday, so it's a great excuse to get everyone together. If you'd like something more memorable than brunch, make something together.

Why a workshop works for Galentine's

  • It's social. Everyone sits around one table, swapping charms and opinions.
  • It's a keepsake. You all leave with something you made together.
  • It suits every friend. There's no skill needed, and it works with or without a drink in hand.
  • It's easy to organise. We bring everything and host, so the organiser gets to enjoy it too.

We've done this before

On Saturday 14 February 2026 we teamed up with SHS Studio for a Galentine's event in SW18: a Mat Pilates session, then a charm making workshop, with snacks, cake and yogurt bowls from Culture Fix. Spaces were limited to 10. Read more about our studio collaborations.

This guide is about booking your own private session for your friends, which you can arrange for any date.

Design ideas for the day

Tell us it's for Galentine's and we'll shape the selection around it. Pinks, reds, bows and hearts are the obvious place to start:

  • Matching but different: agree one palette, then let everyone pick their own charms.
  • Friendship initials: add each other's letter charms to your designs.
  • Star signs: use zodiac charms for the group's birthdays.
  • A shared date: mark the year you met with number charms.
