Top 5 Things to do in Washington D.C. This Winter Season!

(1) Inauguration Day 2021

Mark your calendars! On January 20, 2021, the new commander-in-chief will be sworn in on the West Lawn of the U.S.Capitol. Tickets to the ceremony are completely free, but must be applied for by contacting your local official in the office of your Congress members. Community leaders and volunteers are usually given priority so please explain that if you have any experience!

There will be limited seats this year, so please sign up as soon as you can! If you are not able to get a ticket, the National Mall usually puts up large screens for spectators to watch.

When you’re in town, you can rent one of Unlimited Biking’s bikes to easily get around and avoid having to find parking! Helmets, locks, bike bags and maps are included with each rental.
