Stokes County, NC
Is February in Stokes County solely about love? Perhaps, but it’s also about all the various forms of love—love for history, music, family, furry companions, and adventure! This month, the Palmetto Theater in Walnut Cove presents a lineup that will captivate your heart, regardless of your preferences.
Kick off your February journey on the 7th with The Help. This film is an ideal choice for that friend or family member who enjoys historical dramas, stories of resilience, and narratives that leave you both inspired and slightly teary-eyed. Plus, who doesn’t adore a story featuring strong women who make a difference?
On the 8th, bring your furry Valentine along—and head to the Puppy Love Benefit Concert featuring Jon Montgomery and friends. Prepare to be entertained by great music, vibrant vibes, and the comforting knowledge that all proceeds support the Friends of Stokes Animal Shelter. Furry love has never sounded so delightful!
Don’t miss the 15th, as it’s officially declared Date Night. Dust off your dancing shoes and prepare to be swept off your feet by Jim Quick and Coastline. Whether you’re a seasoned swing dance pro or a two-left-feet novice, their high-energy tunes are guaranteed to make it a night to remember.
Treat those with little ones to a magical matinee on the 17th (what a fantastic day to break free from the routine!). Enjoy a heartwarming story called The Wild Robot, which will have kids laughing, learning, and perhaps even yearning for a robot friend of their own.
Rounding out the month’s entertainment on the 22nd is Mean Street, a Van Halen tribute band that will have you rocking and singing along to all your favorites. (Pro tip: Your hairbrush makes an excellent air guitar.)
While you’re making your way to and from the theater, don’t forget to stop by 1889 Taphouse across the street. It’s the perfect spot for a pre-show bite or post-show toast.
Stokes County delivers in style at Luna’s Trail Farm and Event Center for those craving a little getaway for two. Cozy up in one of the lodge’s nine luxurious bedrooms, or opt for one of the private cabins for a more secluded romantic spot. With miles of hiking trails, a serene lake, and plenty of adventure outside your door, Luna’s Trail Farm and Event Center offers the perfect setting for a romantic getaway. If you prefer something indoors, curl up by the fireplace with wine or cocoa or challenge your Valentine to a pool table duel. Either way, the breathtaking views will steal your breath—and your heart.
So, is February in Stokes County all about love? We’ll let you decide. But one thing’s for sure: this month is bursting with opportunities to celebrate love in all its wonderful forms. Bring your sweetheart, your bestie, your kiddos—and let the memories (and love) flow. ❤
It’s the perfect mountain getaway, closer than you think. Experience hiking trails, waterfalls, rock climbing, mountain biking, horseback riding, camping, fishing, and more. Enjoy a leisurely float down the Dan River by canoe, kayak, paddleboard, or tube. www.hangingrock.com
