Christmas is coming, and with it, the age-old question: what do I get everyone this year?
Behind every gift there’s thought, love and affection. However, if you’re thinking about shaking things up this year, why not get them something that makes them stop, grin, and say, “you actually nailed it.” Experience gifts do that. They’re the kind of presents that say, I really thought about you, whether it’s for family, friends, or that auntie who says they “don’t even want anything.”
At Virgin Gifts, we make it simple to gift different. With thousands of experiences across the US, find a gift designed to surprise, delight, and inspire the ultimate “yes.”
Why Choose an Experience Gift This Christmas?
The best gifts don’t just get unwrapped — they’re lived. Experience gifts take you beyond the box. Combining fun, flexibility, and that deeply personal touch. Whether you’re treating someone to an indulgent spa escape or a weekend of high-octane adventure, you can really make someone feel seen.
They’re also easy to give (and receive). When you’re delivering via instant e-vouchers, there’s no shipping stress. Flexible booking keeps calendars wide open, and it’s simple to find something unforgettable near anyone on your list.
Best Spa Day Gifts for Christmas
Peace, quiet, and maybe a cucumber slice or two. Spa day gifts are the classic that never fades. They give someone a reason to pause. Trading the noise of the season for a robe, slippers, and a little serenity is sometimes all some of us want.
From massages that melt stress away to all-day wellness retreats, these gifts speak the universal language of calm. Recipients love them because, simply put, they’re an invitation to exhale, recharge and rest — something we all need.
Top Dining Gifts for Christmas
Food is love — and dining gifts are the proof. Whether it’s a candlelit dinner for two, a quirky brunch in the city, or a unique tasting menu, dining experiences make every meal feel different.
There’s something special about giving someone your time, and enjoying great food. Maybe it’s a shared laugh across the table, or the clink of your wine glasses. Maybe it’s knowing you just showed someone their new favorite restaurant. Either way, these experiences serve up flavor and connection in equal measure.
Popular Driving Gifts for Christmas
Got a thrill-seeker on your list? Driving experiences are for the ones who live life in the fast lane — or at least dream of it. Think iconic cars, the roar of a V8 engine, and high-speed laps that make your heart skip and palms sweaty.
They’re the perfect pick for anyone who craves pure excitement and real adrenaline rushes, wrapped up in one unforgettable package.
Best Flying Gifts for Christmas
Flying experiences take adventure to (literally) new heights. The thrill of a flying lesson with experienced instructors, or a tandem skydive? You decide how your journey into the clouds looks.
These are the gifts that remind people what it feels like to be bold, and live life the way it’s meant to be lived: hurtling through the air at hundreds of miles an hour. Or, in less dramatic terms, with a true sense of adventure.
Give them the feeling of wonder as they lift off and look down.
Perfect Broadway & Theatre Gifts for Christmas
Whether it’s the glitter of Broadway or a cozy local show, theatre experiences make Christmas sparkle a little brighter. The energy of a live performance, the buzz of the crowd, the lights dimming just before curtain, it’s pure magic – an artform crafted over centuries.
From timeless classics to showstopping musicals, gifting theatre tickets means giving someone their next favorite night out. It’s thoughtful, stylish, and guaranteed to earn a standing ovation.
