Irving Sets the Stage to Rock Your Next Event

In the middle of Dallas/Fort Worth and less than a three-hour flight from both coasts, Irving is easily accessible for groups looking to meet in the Lone Star State. Add to that a walkable entertainment district connecting delegates to the Irving Convention Center and Westin headquarter hotel, and you have a destination with unparalleled convenience. A "convention city with character," Irving packs a lot into a small footprint: history, culture and entertainment can all be had within minutes. Delegates can quickly transition from a working session at the convention center to a show at the Toyota Music Factory–a multivenue complex with dining, nightlife and live music. These venues offer multiple options to fill free nights on the convention schedule, as well as an excellent location for opening or closing night events. For outdoor fun, Las Colinas' beautiful lake and Venetian-inspired waterways promote activities like paddleboarding, gondola rides, plus scenic waterfront dining. In Irving-Las Colinas, accommodations abound from Texas-y boutiques to familiar brands like Marriott and Omni that make hosting larger groups a breeze. With 90 hotels and over 13,000 guest rooms, Irving caters to all budgets and preferences, ensuring comfortable accommodation for everyone. The city's 18 full-service hotels alone offer over 200,000 square feet of versatile venues, from private suites to grand ballrooms. The convention center itself, with its 100,000 square feet of meeting space, includes a 50,000-square-foot, column-free exhibit hall and 20,000-square-foot ballroom. The 275,000-square-foot facility’s vertical design creates interesting spaces for networking and allows attendees to move fluidly within the building. With a futuristic design and high-end finishes, the LEED-certified Irving Convention Center is functional, aesthetically appealing, cutting-edge, eco-friendly and inviting. Plus, the center features inventive food that surpasses standard convention fare. The chef-inspired menu rivals any five-star resort. Irving stands out with its thriving arts scene, pedestrian-friendly environment, and blend of business and leisure. Home to over 10 Fortune 500 companies, it offers access to industry leaders. Safety is a priority in Irving, making it an appealing destination for all.

Ruth Paine House Museum
Ruth Paine House Museum
Historical landmark
The Ruth Paine House Museum in Irving tells a little-known side story to the assassination of President Kennedy in Dallas on Nov. 22, 1963. At first it might seem rather macabre to visit the house where the accused Lee Harvey Oswald spent his last night of freedom. But within these walls was also a compassionate woman caught in a horrible web. Ruth and Michael Paine purchased the house off Story Road for $6,000 soon after it was built. By 1962, the couple were estranged but friendly. Ruth lived in the house with her two children. Ruth met Marina Oswald at a party in April 1963, and became friends with the Russian immigrant and her unemployed husband. For the next eight months the pregnant Mrs. Oswald and her daughter shared Ruth's two-bedroom house. Lee found a job at the Texas School Book Depository in downtown Dallas. He usually stayed in a boarding house in Oak Cliff, but visited Marina on Nov. 21 to pick up "curtain rods." The next day a knock on Ruth's front door changed her life forever. She had offered a friend Quaker hospitality and was repaid with the international spotlight. We know a lot about Ruth from news stories and her testimony. The house is remarkably re-created. The curators have also reconstructed the lives of the people, even using holograms to tell their stories in their own words. "If only I had known there was a gun," Ruth testified. "Maybe I could have done something to stop him." The Ruth Paine House Museum is owned by the City of Irving. Tours are weekdays at 10am, noon, 2pm, and 4pm starting from the visitors' center at 801 W. Irving Blvd.
