Valentine’s Day is once again near, bringing with it overpriced dinners, gas station roses, and singles-shaming galore. This year it falls on a Saturday, making this polarizing Hallmark holiday even less avoidable.

Be you a lover or a hater, New York City surely has something of interest to attend, consume or just spend money on this Feb. 14. Below, six carefully curated options:

Watch a romcom at the most romantic place in Midtown

The Empire State Building is once again screening the classic 1993 romcom “Sleepless in Seattle.” It’s a meta experience as the movie features the building. The experience includes complimentary drinks, snacks and a tour of the 86th and 102nd floor observatories.

Tickets are $135 ($175 if you want to upgrade to a recliner seat) for both screenings (at 4:30 and 7:45 p.m.) and may not last much longer — last year the event sold out.

For those intrigued but busy on V-Day, fear not: The Empire State Building has a whole lineup of February events pegged to the idea that it’s the “World’s Most Romantic Building.”

Attend a fishy fete

For something a bit less traditionally romantic, The Fulton Fish Market is putting on quite the evening at its Bronx facility, which is functionally a 400,000-square-foot refrigerator. That’s right, this Feb. 14 the East Coast’s most significant wholesale fish market will transform into a temple of romance.

Programming is set to include a sacred absinthe ritual, Latin jazz quintet and, for the main course, a seated seafood feast. Premium ticket-holders will additionally enjoy access to a hot tub and private table.

Guests are encouraged to wear “frigid-aire couture” as the “the music will be sultry but the interior temperature will be a cool 44 degrees,” as the event listing puts it. Tickets start at $245.

Eat your heart out

Here’s a way to not leave the house and yet still honor the holiday: Order in a heart-shaped pie from East Village Pizza. There are four flavors — plain, white, pepperoni and margherita — and each will run you about $30.

Other honorary edible mentions include Brooklyn bar Hart’s “Love Stinks” Valentine’s tradition of serving up a particularly funky $105 per person meal of, among other things, halibut with lardo, garlic shrimp and stuffed olives.

Dance it out

For the more music-minded, The Roots will be playing a special Valentine’s Day performance at Brooklyn Bowl. The event, called Play Another Slow Jam, will be bookended by DJ sets by Questlove.

Tickets currently start at just over $120.

Bug someone

Despise Valentine’s Day? Consider it a sickly sappy abomination of a holiday emblematic of late capitalistic excess and our society’s couple-focused culture? Well, then, perhaps consider naming a roach after someone.

That’s right, for just $15 you can christen one of The Bronx Zoo’s Madagascar hissing cockroaches, and they’ll even send over a digital certificate to prove it.

“You don’t always have the right words, but you can still give them goosebumps,” The Bronx Zoo advertises on the offering’s hilarious landing page. “Name a roach for your Valentine, because roaches are forever.”
