Valentine's Day in Gibraltar, much like in various parts of the world, is celebrated on February 14th and is a day where love and affection are expressed through the exchange of cards, flowers, chocolates, and romantic gestures.
The origins of Valentine's Day are not directly connected to Gibraltar but have roots in ancient Roman festivals and the honoring of Christian saints named Valentinus. Over time, the day evolved into an occasion for lovers to express their feelings for each other.
In Gibraltar, a British Overseas Territory with a blend of different cultures including Spanish and British influences, Valentine's Day traditions have been adopted from these cultures.
