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 17 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.
