Gals are invited for an evening of retailer and restaurant specials, workshops and complimentary cocktails at Avalon on Thursday.

ALPHARETTA, GA — Show some love at Avalon, the Alpharetta mixed-use destination, for the third annual Galentine’s Day event. From 5-9 p.m. on Thursday, gal pals are invited to experience incredible retailer specials and exciting workshops while toasting with complimentary cocktails along the Boulevard. The first 300 guests to visit Concierge will receive a special Galentine's Day treat.

“Galentine’s Day is the perfect occasion for gal pals to come together and experience the best that Avalon has to offer,” said Lauren Ness, marketing manager at Avalon. “This year, more than 20 of our retailers and restaurants are offering can’t-miss specials along the Boulevard. From an exclusive driving experience with Tesla to complimentary champagne at Oak Steakhouse and Colletta, Galentine’s Day at Avalon is the perfect way for ladies to spend the holiday.”

Originally introduced on the sitcom "Parks and Recreation" as an opportunity to celebrate ladies, Galentine’s Day has become a widely celebrated holiday dedicated to female friendship. In honor of the special occasion, a collection of Avalon’s best-in-class retailers have joined forces to offer gal pals an evening of exclusive shopping steals and special experiences.
