Family Attractions

Greater Raleigh prides itself on being known as a "family friendly" destination with a wealth of museums, festivals, live performances, parks and lakes. From the Marbles Kids Museum and the Wachovia IMAX Theatre to the TVLand "Andy & Opie" statue, Greater Raleigh offers family attractions and activities visitors of all ages.

Active families can enjoy year-round outdoor recreation in North Carolina's state capital and do everything from plunge down a waterslide to play miniature golf or go on a hayride. Animal-lovers can plan a satisfying outing to a Raleigh nature park.

Your kids may never want to go home or surely come back again and again! Parents love how imagination is sparked and that many of the area's top attractions are FREE!
