As the weather is warming up and the air feels fresh we can confidently say spring is in the air! Even with North Carolinas weird weather, the warm breeze has been very appreciated. Coming from a coastal town, I have loved being able to sit outside and enjoy the sun with friends. While the changing of seasons brings new playlists it also brings new places to go spend with a romantic partner!

Whether you’re already cuddled up with a long-term partner or you’re going through the first date phase, Raleigh has an amazing selection of spots to spend with that special person.

Here is a short list of date ideas:

First on this list is Moore Square! For all the farmers market chic couples this is the place for you! With an amazing selection of rotating vendors and unique events hosted, this is the perfect place to explore local Raleigh businesses.

Next, we have Pullen Park. For all those NCSU couples that don’t have a car on campus, this is the place for you! As Pullen Park gears up for the spring they have different exhibits up as well. It is also the ideal place to take your date on a chill picnic!

Lastly, we have the Red Hat Amphitheater. If you are a live music person this is the place for you! This outdoor concert venue, it is the perfect place to listen to new music with a potential partner or friend!
