Market Info


Dallas Market Trip
October 24th – 26th


Dallas Market Center
The Fashion Center is where the market will be located.
Parking garage is long walk so be prepared to walk.
Ladies it might be a day for flats, but that is up to you.



Where will we Stay?

We have several options for hotels.












To the left is the Hyatt Summerfield Suites. Assuming 8 people in 2 rooms, the nightly rate per room is $104. For 2 rooms including tax, the total will be $490.64 amongst 8 people divides down to a little over $61 per person.

Holiday Inn Dallas Market Center
The Holiday Inn is listed at $104 per room per night assuming 8 people in 2 rooms. For 2 rooms including tax thru Orbitz, the total will be $501.68 amongst 8 people which divides down to a little under $63 per person.












Transportation
I hope everyone will have a friend. We thought it best that everyone carpool or take their own vehicles. Also, we think it only fair that those driving their cars and allowing others to ride with them should receive some gas money. That total will reflect, however, the number of people you take. More gas money for more people.





Where is everything?

Market to Hyatt – 1.41 miles
















Market to Holiday Inn – 0.44 miles
















What to Do in Dallas???



Galleria Dallas – 9.67 miles




















North Park Center – 8.44
