This June 16, 2024 is Father’s Day. For many, a special date and a moment of stress if you do not know what to do on Father’s Day or wonder what you can give him to make him happy. Since gifts are often not enough to show him your love, instead of thinking about what to give him for Father’s Day, what better than to know what to do on Father’s Day. Give him some of the Father’s Day experiences we have compiled for you:
1. For cultural fathers on Father’s Day in Buenos Aires: free movies and special tours
It’s too cold this June to go out and if your dad loves theater and art there are great plans waiting for you. Obviously you can take him to see some of the best exhibitions in Buenos Aires and take him on guided tours of the city’s museums (many have free guided tours).
Does your dad like movies? You should know that in Buenos Aires there are many options for cult cinema, from other eras and many of these cycles are free or super cheap. The most important cultural centers in Buenos Aires have the best film seasons and you can book them online or they are free.
2. For soccer dads: matches and immersive experiences
If your dad is the kind of guy who gets his lungs pumped when there is a soccer match, you will understand that it must be frustrating for him to have a small TV screen where he can watch his favorite games. You don’t have to give him a TV, but what is a great idea if you don’t know what to do on Father’s Day, is to take him as a surprise to one of the sports bars in Buenos Aires. There he can watch the game he wants on a giant screen and you can buy him a beer on top of it.
If you would also like to have one of the best options for a Father’s Day gift, buy him a ticket to go to The Messi Experience. It is an incredible immersive experience where you can go through Messi’s life, discover interactive corners of his life and soccer and even take a selfie with him. What better gift for Father’s Day than that?
3. Beer dads: Celebrate Father’s Day at a beer spa.
Tedelupulo is the only beer spa in Argentina and it is in Buenos Aires. It is the ideal place to bathe and relax in 9 different circuits with different types of beer. You can choose the ideal circuit for your dad, with or without massages, but always with beer. The ingredients of the beer are beneficial for the skin, so in addition to drinking it, your dad will be able to bathe in it and come out rejuvenated. The contact is through their website. It is a different and perfect gift to surprise.
4. What to do on Father’s Day: adventurous fathers
If your dad is the adventurous type, or not really, but you would like to give him an experience very different from what he usually does, we have two proposals that can’t fail.
If you want to surprise him with something quiet but very unusual, definitely try virtual reality. In Buenos Aires there are several options of virtual parks where you can live a unique immersive experience through virtual reality helmets. Your dad can be a rock star at a concert, a soldier in a first-person war game or whatever he decides.
If you want to go a little more extreme, and make your dad never forget this Father’s Day again, make him fly! Literally, take your dad to Argentina’s only wind tunnel in Buenos Aires and make him live the experience of flying. And if you’re up for it, you can join him. It’s easier than it looks and it’s a great surprise if you still don’t know what to do for that date.
5. Father’s Day plans: Take him to an escape room.
More and more adults are choosing escape rooms for a different and fun outing. The truth is that they are excellent options because they are for groups or pairs, ideal for sharing as a Father’s Day gift and there are all styles. Combine it with a good dinner and it is one of the best plans and events to celebrate Father’s Day this 2024.
6. Make him get excited with a good play.
In Buenos Aires we know that there are excellent plays all year round. If you want ideas and plans to celebrate Father’s Day and you are in Buenos Aires, there are two plays that open on that day.
On the one hand, you can take your dad to see Museo Beresford, a free version of “La Gaviota” that brings to life six characters located in our geography, with our humor and reflects on art and daily life.
Another plan if you do not know what to do on Father’s Day is to go to see La Vaca Atada, a story set in the 1920s where an aristocratic family travels on an ocean liner with their children, maids, chickens and cows. A trip to the sea where a lot can happen.
If these plays do not fit your dad’s profile, there are many excellent plays in other circuits of Buenos Aires for you to enjoy.
