Arlington is home to Six Flags Over Texas, a nation-wide theme park that includes many notable attractions. The park typically adds a new, typically more thrilling ride annually. Six Flags also opened Hurricane Harbor, a waterpark, after the previous location, Wet `n Wild closed in the mid 90`s.

The University of Texas at Arlington used to field a football team, but the program was canceled in 1985 due to funding issues and waning attendance. The football vacancy at the campus stadium, Maverick Stadium, was rapidly filled by Arlington High and afterward Bowie High School. Cravens Field, on the campus of Lamar, and Wilemon Field, on the campus of Sam Houston, are home to the other four teams in the city. Both have enjoyed a history of close and dramatic games.

In Texas, school district boundaries do not always follow city and county boundaries because all aspects of school district government apparatus, including district boundaries, are separated from city and county governments. Not all city of Arlington residents are in the AISD, and not all AISD students are residents of Arlington.
