The best way to celebrate spring break in Arlington is at the legendary Six Flags Over Texas, plummeting down from 255-feet in the air with your hands up (or clinging to the handles inside the coaster car... there’s no judgement here). Six Flags is open all day, every day during spring break. 

 

 

  

Explore the great outdoors! With aerial adventures featuring wobbly bridges, swinging planks, rope courses, and ziplines, Go Ape is an exciting way for kids of all ages to experience nature.   

 

 

  

There’s so much fun to be had for the whole family: bowling, laser tag, arcade games, putt-putt, batting cages, AND rock climbing! 

 

  

  

Experience the arcade in a whole new way. Tokyo Station will transport you to Japan with their incredible selection of imported arcade games, classic American versions of Japanese games, custom claw machines with authentic prizes, and more. 

 

 

  

Nature lovers! River Legacy is hosting a full week of special theme days and hands on learning activities covering mammals to reptiles and everything in between.  

 

 

  

Enjoy a little art and culture this Spring Break in the Entertainment District! The Arlington Museum of Art currently has real costumes and props on display showcasing the artistry of HBO’s Game of Thrones as well as Chasing Victory: an INDYCAR Exhibition featuring five classic racing cars and iconic memorabilia spanning 100+ years of open-wheel racing. 

 

 

 

And if you're looking for a way to wind down after a day of adventure, head over to Levitt Pavilion for free fun, Wednesday through Friday! Each night kicks off with a vendor market at 6 p.m. — It's A Vibe Markets on Wednesday and Thursday, and Pretty Little Things Market on Friday. On Wednesday and Thursday, end the night with a movie under the stars! Sing along to Encanto on Wednesday and Cars on Thursday, both starting at 7:30 p.m. Friday is a full evening of entertainment: story time with Arlington Public Library at 7 p.m., DJ Guurl at 7:15 p.m., and Brad Thompson takes the stage at 8:30 p.m. Don’t forget to bring your blankets and lawn chairs!
