"How do I get to the hotel?" If you're coming from downtown Dallas, take I-35E (Stemmons Frwy.) to Mockingbird Ln. (exit 433B) and the hotel will be on your right. If you're joining us from north of the metroplex, follow I-35E southward toward Commonwealth Dr. (exit 423B) pass under the freeway and return northward. The Hotel will be on the right. Due to the volatile nature of traffic in DFW, you may want to use Google Maps or a similar navigation app.
"Can my group throw a room party?" Of course! Please watch this space and social media for updates.
"I live locally, why should I stay at the hotel?" When you stay at the hotel you support the convention. We need to reach a certain number of 'room nights' to keep the cost of the convention space as low as possible. It benefits you as well! You don't need to worry about late night commutes home after long convention days, you get a place to change outfits throughout the day, you are provided a free breakfast to get your mornings underway. When you get a room, you become a part of the convention!
"Where can I get a meal?" The hotel restaurant and bar serve good food, and there's a breakfast buffet included with your room! Additionally, there may be some grab-and-go options by the Front Desk. Local restaurants include Freshella Kitchen, Kukluchan Mexican Restaurant, Community Beer Co. & Taproom, and Walter's Kitchen Restaurant and Bar.
