A new “active gaming” facility in Loudoun County is drawing nearer to opening date. The installation of the sign over the entrance is the latest step towards the big day.

Called Activate, the venue is taking a large, 9,200 s.f. vacant space at the Cascades Marketplace shopping center in Sterling.

The Burn first told readers about the plans for Activate back in December 2024. It can be found next door to the Taco Bamba restaurant and right by the planned Starbucks drive-thru coffee shop.

It won’t just be the first Activate location in Loudoun, but also the first one in the entire Commonwealth of Virginia.
