Neighborhood Spotlight: Best holiday spots in Arlington

There is no doubt your December calendar filled up fast with parties, school productions, and gift shopping, but don’t forget to make time for memory making with family and friends! 

As crazy as the days leading up to the holidays can be, it’s easy to let the time slip away without capitalizing on all the extra hours with your family. Here are some holiday activities to celebrate the season and no matter which activity you choose, kids and adults alike are sure to get into the holiday spirit!

Ice Skating at Pentagon Row — Are you looking to expend some energy and spend some time outdoors? This 6,840-square-foot ice rink in the Pentagon City area is the place to go! This is the largest outdoor rink in Northern Virginia and the second largest in the state. It features an outdoor dual-sided stone fireplace for lounging during skating breaks. Reservations are required. You can visit their website to make a reservation to skate, and schedule a skate.

Rhizome: the Bell Street Courtyard Lighting Installation — Located between 1801-1901 South Bell Street in Arlington, The Bell Street Courtyard, also known as Center Park, is housing an installation by Light Art Collection’s Belgian artists, Tom & Lien Dekyvere. Consisting of a web of hundreds of meters of illuminated rope, Rhizome symbolizes the many ways in which human exchanges occur both on and offline. This cocoon of light exchanges is reflective of our current society.

Christmas Tree at Ballston — In the heart of the Ballston neighborhood, the Ballston Quarter shopping and entertainment district is all decked out for the holidays. While you’re there to admire the tree, stop in for some Christmas shopping or hot cocoa. Brighten your day by stopping at any of their exciting and festive holiday events.

There is so much to see and experience in the area not only during the holidays, but year round. Reach out to me if you want to learn more about neighborhoods in Arlington and around the region!
