From skating and watching a Washington Capitals practice at Medstar Capitals Iceplex, to spending the day at one of the neighborhood’s parks, or going on a virtual adventure at 5 Wits, there’s always something to do in Ballston!

5 Wits

5 Wits

5 Wits Arlington is one of our largest venues, featuring three world-class adventure experiences: Drago’s Castle, Espionage, and Tomb. With multiple endings for each adventure, hidden secrets, challenges that adapt to each group, and cutting edge technology controlling everything behind the scenes, a 5 Wits adventure is not only intensely interactive – it’s also unlike anything else that exists. Each adventure takes place in highly immersive, real-life environments, with lights, sound, and elaborate special effects that react to your presence. Picture a major theme park attraction, but hands-on: instead of watching things happen, you’re part of the experience!
