Sure, Friday night is date night, but what about getting together and catching up with your favourite girlfriends? Sometimes, afternoon tea or a quick bite to eat at lunch just doesn’t cut it. Sometimes, you want to get together and talk, laugh, eat and drink - and really, you need a whole night to do that. There are plenty of great places in Edmonton to enjoy a lovely evening with friends.
Could there be a better girls night out activity than getting together and learning to pole dance? Get in touch with your sensual, feminine side, have some giggles and get in shape, all at once! This would be great for a group of new moms, a stagette, or just a planned event with your best gal pals.
Did someone say fondue? Nothing says a great to start (or end) to a night out with the girls than dipping your favourite foods in melted cheese and then melted chocolate. With several different types of cheese fondue, and even more different types of chocolate fondue to choose from, as well as a comprehensive supporting food and drink menu, it’s the perfect place to unwind with the ladies.
Sometimes, you want nothing more than to get together with your girlfriends and just laugh. And laugh. And laugh some more. Why not take your gal pals to this place for something different? Theatresports is a hilarious battle of the wits that happens every Friday night, or you can go to their longer format, Chimprov, which has one-act improvised plays, among other things.
What’s a girls night out without some dancing? Head here on any Thursday night for some Salsa dancing lessons, given by Salsa Addiction. The lessons are free, which you can’t beat, plus they have Cuba Libres on special for just $4 each. Even if you don’t start out with the courage to dance the night away, you’ll likely want to after a few of those Cuba Libres!
This luxurious piano bar is the perfect spot for a girls night out when you’re in the mood for music and dancing. There’s a fantastic wine and cocktail menu, as well as top-notch food to sample while you catch up with your closest friends. Plus, The Red Piano is located inside West Edmonton Mall, on Bourbon Street, so you can start the evening with a little shopping, if you like.
