17 Inexpensive & Good Date Night Ideas (3 of 4)

Play Sports

For the more athletically inclined, there is always sports. Similar to working out, this can still make for a fun way to experience a date night. It sounds unusual, but like a lot of these things on this list, date night isn’t always about traditional romantic activities. It’s more to do with activities together.

In this case whether you’re on opposing sides or working as a team, there are plenty of sports places where you can play all kinds of sports. What’s also nice about this is that if you have community centers in the area, that means this is something you can do every week if you want to.

Game Night With Friends

While many think date night needs to be only the two of you, that’s not the case. Consider this particular activity that breaks that tradition. If you don’t have any little ones yet or they’re off at a friend’s house, this can be an opportunity for you to invite a couple of your friends over and have some fun games together.

Volunteer Together

There are all kinds of causes and non-profit companies looking for volunteers. If there is something in your community that you and your partner support, this is an opportunity for you to do something you both agree on.

It doesn’t have to be anything too crazy. It could be biking down a trail or cleaning up a local park, lake, or beach. Whatever the case is – this can be a fun experience.

Check Out Arcades

You don’t need to go to any big-name arcades to experience this, but in some cities you may be able to find some arcades that are still operational. Nevertheless, these games are a lot of fun to experience together. All you need to do is grab some quarters.

Cook Together

While not every dish requires two people, it doesn’t hurt to split up the task. One person cutting up all the ingredients and the other preparing the dish. Either way, it’s all a good experience as it involves food, working together and maybe some wine and nice music.

What’s also nice is if one or both are skilled at cooking, you can consider going for a more complex dish. Or in the event that one of you isn’t a good cook, the other could teach the other.
