Whether you are lovebirds planning your first Detty December together or a perfect pair looking to reconnect before the year ends, here’s your guide to fun, romantic, and best activities for couples in Lagos this December.

1. Spa day for two in Lagos

Let’s be honest, Lagos stress deserves its own therapy. Between work, traffic and December wahala, there’s no better time to unwind together.
Book a couple’s massage at Oriki Spa in Lekki or Apples & Oranges Spa in Victoria Island, and let someone else handle your tension. It’s calm, intimate, and the perfect excuse to just exist together — phones off, clothes off, game on.

2. Movie marathon & chill

Sometimes love doesn’t need too much planning. A cosy movie night can work wonders — whether you’re turning your living room into a private theatre or catching the latest blockbusters at EbonyLife Cinemas in Victoria Island, movie marathons never fail.
Pro tip: try the Cinema Package for Two — December Double Feature for a date night that’s equal parts cosy and cinematic.

If you’re both gamers or love to compete, there’s a VR gaming room – Vortex at EbonyLife Place – perfect for passing the time before your movie.

3. Hand sculpture date

There’s something sweet and sexy about dipping your hands in plaster to make a sculpture that symbolises your love. If you both like getting creative, try a hand sculpture session — a fun activity where you and your partner mould your hands together into a 3D keepsake. It’s not just art; it’s a little time capsule of your connection.
Ceracerni Art Hub in Lagos offers this beautiful experience, giving you a chance to capture your love in the most unexpected way.

4. Rooftop dinner with city views

If you’d rather take your date outside, nothing beats dining under the Lagos sky. You can enjoy breezy open-air cocktails and food at Turaka Lagos, where the view alone could make you fall in love again. The warm glow and gentle sound of afrobeats hits make it feel both intimate and vibrant. This Lagos rooftop restaurant knows how to set the mood.

Come for the food, stay for the view, and maybe steal a kiss when no one’s looking.

5. Nights out, Lagos-style

If you’re a nightcrawler, you don’t need a loud club to enjoy the Lagos energy. Sometimes, it’s about catching live music, sharing a cocktail, and people-watching under soft lights. Try Turaka Live, every other Thursday, featuring jazz or afrobeats bands, or head to Soul Lounge, or Sip Lounge if you’re craving a louder vibe.

6. Create Your Own Pizza — a delicious date idea in Lagos

Cooking together can be fun, but making pizza side-by-side is chemistry and chaos in the best way. At Pizza Garden, you can create your own pizza together—choose your ingredients, spread everything on the dough, sprinkle on the cheese, and wait for your masterpiece to bake. It’s a simple but playful experience that makes meal prep feel like therapy.

You can wrap up the night with a drink by the pool, and if you’re lucky, it might just be Pizza and Karaoke Night — a fun, laughter-filled evening that happens every other Friday. Nothing says “love” like duetting badly and staying in harmony.

This December, your love story doesn’t need grand gestures — just shared laughter, a little adventure, and the right soundtrack. From creating your own pizza to rooftop dinners, art sessions, and spa dates, Lagos gives you endless ways to keep the spark alive.

So go on… hold hands, make plans, and make it a December to remember.
