'''Valentine's Day''' is a holiday that is celebrated in [[Bikini Bottom]] and the real world on {{Time|February 14}}. It is celebrated in the [[Valentine's Day|episode of the same name]] and the books ''[[The World's Greatest Valentine]]'' and ''[[SpongeBob's Secret Valentine]]''.

==Traditions==
Every year, [[Goo Lagoon]] hosts a [[Valentine's Day Carnival]] on Valentine's Day and the surrounding days.

{{Link|SpongeBob}} gives most of his friends generic heart-shaped cards and other gifts. With his best friends, he gives them special things like a chocolate heart made of [[chocolate syrup]] for {{Link|Sandy}} and a giant [[Chocolate balloon|chocolate heart balloon]] for {{Link|Patrick}}.

Patrick initially plans to give SpongeBob a rock in the shape of a heart. However, he thinks SpongeBob is trapped inside, so he destroys it in an attempt to "free" him.

Sandy gives SpongeBob an [[Heart-shaped acorn|acorn in the shape of a heart]] with an arrow in it.

Other citizens spend their day with their friends and loved ones at the carnival.
