Destination DMV
The Capital of Mid-Atlantic Living
Welcome to the DMV
It’s how the locals refer to this exciting region. It’s shorthand for the District of Columbia, Maryland and Virginia. If you’re new to the area or relocating soon, you’ve come to the right place — in more ways than one.
Discover the DMV is your go-to guide to your new home. We’ll help you find the best neighborhoods, the best schools, the most exciting attractions and the most lively events.
We’ll have you living like a local in no time!
Let's Get Social
Follow us @DiscoverDMV on Instagram to see what’s happening across our region!
Baseball is back! The Nats kick off the 2023 season this afternoon at Nationals Park, while the Orioles start the season on the road in Boston. But don’t worry, they’ll be back at Camden Yards soon enough!
Whether you’re in D.C. or Baltimore, both stadiums are beautiful downtown destinations, packed with great local food and drink to enjoy.
It’s been a long winter. Time to play ball!
Attention: Peak Bloom is happening now!
This weekend is your chance to visit D.C. to see the cherry blossoms in all their glory and to revel in all the excitement of the Cherry Blossom festival!
Head downtown, check out the sites and grab a bite at one of D.C. signature restaurants.

One of America’s most iconic musicians is bringing his larger-than-life performance to the DMV! Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band will perform on Monday, March 27, at Capitol One Arena in Washington, D.C. Then on April 7, they’ll take the stage at the Baltimore Arena?
Can’t make it? Don’t sweat it.
The Boss is coming back around this summer with scheduled dates at Nationals Park in August and Camden Yards in September!
Happy St. Patrick’s Day! 🍀 If you’re feeling lucky, check out our most recent blog for some great places to celebrate today across the DMV!

Stalagmites. Stalactites. An underground lake and a lot more.
If you live in the DMV, you have to visit Luray Caverns. It’s the largest underground caverns in the eastern U.S. When you venture down into this subterranean expanse, you’ll feel like you’ve entered another planet.
It’s an awesome experience for kids and adults alike!
