Should Valentine's Day be Cancelled?

Loading player...
As Valentine's Day approaches, Stacey and J Sbu from East Coast Radio sparked a lively debate on the relevance of this romantic holiday. They questioned whether Valentine's Day has become too commercialised and if the pressure to celebrate has become overwhelming.

KZNers showed a mixed bag of opinions. Some were indifferent, while others were passionate about cancelling the holiday altogether. However, many were keen to keep the tradition alive, but with a twist - celebrating self-love, friendship, and singlehood.
