If you love the theater but hate the crowds, you'll absolutely love taking in a performance at Theatre Arlington. This venue offers highly personal theatrical experience, as there are only 200 seats in this quaint little theater that make every performance an intimate affair. On-stage entertainment ranges from excellent family fare to provocative adults-only productions, but either way, you won't miss a minute of the drama that will unfold right before your eyes.

If you've got a future scientist in the family, or even if you and your brood just love stargazing, then a trip to the Planetarium at UT Arlington will prove to be the perfect intergalactic adventure. The out-of-this-world tool makes it possible to get an unbelievably close view of various stars and planets through their highly-powered telescope that is projected onscreen in the 165-seat viewing area. Also, the dome animation show is absolutely stunning. The Planetarium at UT Arlington does an excellent job of bringing the adventure of outer space up close for you and your family to discover and learn.

Amaze yourself as you explore some of the most interesting, bizarre and curious items and phenomena that the world has to offer through the eyes and extensive travels of legendary Robert Ripley at the ever so popular Ripley's Believe It or Not! exhibitions, brought to you at the local offering in Grand Prairie and a must stop on your fun list while in the Arlington area.  As you enter the world-renowned Odditorium, your imagination will perform back-flips as you browse 7,000 square feet of oddities, 12 galleries of uniqueness, a 7D Moving Theater, the Mirror Maze, tons of hands-on interactives, the delicious sweet Candy Factory, meet the stars at Louis Tussauds Palace of Wax as you walk through their wickedly spinning vortex tunnel. You'll have a blast, believe it or not!
