The massive establishment, which will contain a bar and racing simulators, will occupy a staggering 17,500 square feet at 440 Penn Street NE. The former warehouse space will provide ample room for the racing themed arcade to greet and feed guests. While a precise opening date is not currently available, F1 is aiming for an autumn opening.

The concept will be bringing a unique and wholly original experience to DC. The website states: “F1 Arcade Washington D.C. is a thrilling new food, drink and simulator racing experience coming soon to Washington D.C. in Autumn 2024. Assemble your pit crew, grab a cocktail, and take the wheel of an F1 simulator for an electrifying experience you’ll never forget.”
