What you gain in February

  • Rock-bottom prices continue; February is arguably the best month for budget travellers who want to understand what Tbilisi actually costs when it's not performing for visitors
  • Sunshine hours tick up to 4.0 daily and the worst of winter's grey is easing; clear days bring the first views of the Caucasus foothills behind the city
  • The sulphur baths, the Dry Bridge flea market (operating year-round), and the city's wine bars are all operating without queues or crowds of any kind

What you sacrifice

  • February is genuinely cold; 8°C average high and near-freezing nights mean the outdoor café culture that defines Tbilisi in warmer months doesn't exist yet
  • No significant events on the calendar after Orthodox Christmas passes; February is the quietest month in the city's cultural year
  • Some of the rooftop bars and terrace restaurants that make Tbilisi so enjoyable in spring and autumn are closed until April
