Washington Revels has your vacation plans covered!
There are many ways to Revel. During The Christmas Revels, we think the best approach is to get together at Lisner Auditorium with an audience of 1500. But in these sultry summer months, well… a little R&R (that’s short for rest & revelry, by the way) is certainly what’s called for!
If you’re stuck planning your next vacation — or the one after that! — look no further: our Revels concierges have hand-selected three astonishing destinations that will leave you rested, restored, and inspired. Whichever you win, you can be sure that you’ll make cherished memories and you’ll be making a difference for Revels.
