**An Alternative Valentine’s Day Between Art and Music**
Spada House Museum of Ancient Musical Instruments
Saturday, February 14, 2026, 6:00 PM – 10:00 PM

For those who wish to celebrate Valentine’s Day away from the usual rituals, the Spada House Museum of Ancient Musical Instruments offers an original and refined experience, marked by art, history, and music. On Saturday, February 14, 2026, from 6:00 PM to 10:00 PM, the museum will open its doors to couples for candlelit guided tours, transforming the lovers’ holiday into an emotional and sensory journey.
Visiting a museum on Valentine’s Day means choosing a new and intelligent way to spend the evening. The warm, soft light of the candles enhances the shapes, surfaces, and nuances of the musical instruments, furnishings, and collections, amplifying emotional engagement and creating an intimate and evocative atmosphere, perfect for a romantic stroll.
As a museum dedicated to musical instruments, the visit is designed as a multisensory experience. Historical and organological information is accompanied by suggestions related to the contexts of use of the instruments, told not only through guided tours but also through innovative interactive solutions. Visitors will be able to "virtually play" the instruments through touch-screen stations or directly from their mobile devices using special QR codes.
This will allow them to consult detailed sheets or brief descriptions, print informational materials, watch short videos, listen to the sound of the instruments, observe musicians' postures, and execution techniques. Each visitor can move freely between the rooms, each dedicated to specific contexts of use, experiencing a more immediate and intuitive interaction compared to traditional museum display criteria.
The Spada House Museum, with its enchanting rooms, offers a path that spans different eras and tells stories of patronage and a passion for art. Musical instruments, manuscripts, scores, paintings, and period furnishings interact, creating a welcoming environment rich in suggestions, ideal for a shared visit.
The experience will be enriched by brief live musical performances, making it even more intense and engaging.

For couples looking for a different Valentine’s Day, a visit to the Spada House Museum represents an elegant and original alternative, capable of combining beauty, knowledge, and emotion. A special way to celebrate love, guided by art and the harmonies of the past.
