15 Best Things To Do in Arlington, Texas

Picture of Arlington, Texas

About Arlington


To most people, Texas seems like the quintessential cowboy town where modernism isn’t as rampant. But Arlington goes against this view of the state, offering huge amusement parks, loud music, and sports franchises that are loved all over the country.

The Six Flags amusement park is the biggest in the city and provides everything from soaking-wet rides - quite literally since they pass through water - and eateries to live entertainment and music.

Meanwhile, the Arlington Convention Center is another example of the city’s contemporary life, holding regular events, including travel shows, home conventions, and car shows. The final jewel in the city’s crown is The Parks, which underwent renovation in 1996 and has a 21st-century appeal now, where you are welcome to shop till you drop.
