Welcome to Washington, DC, US

Washington, D.C. Offers Endless Possibilities for Entertainment

Washington, D.C. lies between the borders of Maryland and Virginia along the Potomac River. The 9.3 mile, forested Rock Creek Park runs through the middle of the city. The location was nominated capital of the nation in 1791. In addition to visiting Congress or the White House, guests have the chance to enjoy live performances at the Kennedy Center or the National Mall. Historic documents are on display at the National Archives. Countless fascinating artifacts and exhibits are housed in the many museums that make up the Smithsonian Institute.

Things To Do

For 11 days each April, the city hosts the D.C. International Film Festival. Close to 100 films created in 45 countries become available for viewing on six screens to the delight of moviegoers and industry filmmakers. Special guests provide Q&A sessions and area venues offer event-themed opportunities.

For three weeks in June, the city commemorates the theater by hosting The Source Festival. Visitors have the chance to watch a variety of full-length and short original plays. The event also features a talent show.

Presented at the National Museum of the American Indian, the Smithsonian Folklife Festival is designed to heighten awareness of various world cultures. The event features participants in traditional costumes performing dance, music and other ethnic activities.

Cultural foods and beverages are also provided along with workshops and other festivities.

At the end of June, thousands gather for the annual Safeway National Capital Barbecue Battle. Restaurants and independent teams from across the country compete for cash and prizes along with the National Barbecue Pork Champion title. There is plenty of mouth-watering food for all. The event also features a variety of music concerts.
