SAVOR the SUMMER SEASON
CityCenterDC is the spot to soak up every second of this joyful time of year.
Turns out, summer at CityCenterDC is equally optimistic. Everything you need to bask in the sunny season is here: experiential events for big and small (like free pop-meets-classical concerts and daily bubble clouds in the Plaza); equally bubbly style picks that’ll feel cool and right on trend, and a wealth of epicurean delights for every appetite (hand-crafted gelato or a bright salad—take your pick!) At CityCenterDC, we do summer right. Read on for your guide to things to do this summer exclusively at CityCenterDC.
BUBBLE VISION
Our annual BubbleworksDC experience in the Plaza is officially on, now until July 31st, with a bevy of bubble machines blowing daily at the top of the hour every hour from 1-7pm. And The Plaza isn’t the only place with bubbles.
7 Things to Buy for this summer
Around CityCenter, we’re noticing bubble-esque fashion and baubles in so many of our shops and retailers. Trend or coincidence? Scroll through to discover the latest summer fashion items that have us seeing, ahem, bubble.*
*Note: some items may not be available in-store. Please check with an associate.
LOUIS VUITTON
The house’s iconic collaborations with artist Yayoi Kusama yield graphic, must-have pieces that are forever in style.
DAVID YURMAN
With a halo of pavé diamonds dotting its circumference, David Yurman’s Elements ring elegantly nods to the symbol of unity.
DIOR
A hand-blown glass bubble encapsulates a stunning lily of the valley stem that Monsieur Dior wore for good luck at his own shows.
KATE SPADE
Swap your classic summer sneakers for Kate Spade’s dotted version which features a cushioned platform and statement black pattern.
GUCCI
Gucci’s unmistakable Interlocking G logo gets the vintage treatment with glass pearls that adorn this heritage-hailing hair clip.
MONCLER
A billowy, cloud-like shape defines this pair of lightweight slides from Moncler. Wear them as a sculptural, poolside alternative.
PICCOLINA
CityCenterDC’s own Piccolina is the perfect stop for some bubbles. Whether it’s a celebratory toast or a casual get-together, grab a glass at its Frizzante Happy Hour.
COLORS OF SUMMER
With a fresh season comes a new, eye-catching installation in Palmer Alley, and this season, we’re leaning into the kaleidoscopic hues of summer. Flying high over the boutiques are hundreds of technicolor umbrellas, offering a must-see spectacle (and some much-needed shade!) for guests to enjoy. Another plus? It’s guaranteed to be one of the best spots in DC for a selfie this summer—tag us using #CityCenterDC on Instagram for your chance to be featured.
