Fun Fall Date Night Ideas

Cooler weather is the perfect excuse to cozy up to someone you love. Use these fun fall date night ideas to enjoy the weather while igniting a spark in your love life.

Head to the pumpkin patch

You don’t have to have kids to enjoy the activities at a pumpkin patch. Many pumpkin patches offer Fall Festival-inspired activities to draw in a bigger crowd. Look for adult-friendly options like live music, corn mazes and hay rides. After taking in the crisp fall air, enjoy a casual picnic with wine, olives, cheese and a loaf of French or Italian bread.

Go “camping”

There’s nothing that sets a romantic atmosphere like sitting in front of a fire, wrapping up in a blanket and roasting marshmallows. If heading to a campground isn’t in the cards, make your own camping experience at home by spending an evening sitting around a fire pit in your own backyard. Load up on s’mores fixings and hot chocolate to enhance the camping ambiance.

Try ice skating

Date nights become cumbersome if you spend half your evening putting on and taking off jackets, scarves and other outerwear. Choosing a winter-inspired activity that allows you to keep your outerwear on throughout the evening will cut down on this hassle. Ice skating is the perfect option because it’s fun, active and chilly.

Cheer on a team

Even if you’re not a football fan, nothing says “fall” like a good game of football. Head to the stadium with your date and enjoy a little tailgating before the game. After loading up on bratwurst, beer and nachos, head inside to cheer on your favorite team. You don’t have to understand all the rules – just ask questions and enjoy the learning experience. Even if you don’t have a professional team near your city, check out a local college or high school game for a similarly exhilarating experience.
