WHERE TO PARK
*You may park in designated area on the side of the street but please keep in mind that you will need to put enough $ in the meters. And be careful where you park as to not get towed.
*There is an undergroud parking garage across the street from the venue and also down the street as well.
*Also for those who want to arrive closer to show time they do offer Valet.

PLACES TO STAY
Since the venue is downtown the hotels downtown are a bit more pricey. You can go through your desired hotels website for location details. I will post a few hotels to further out to the west, east, north, and south that will most likely be cheaper.

Hi Guys! I'm working out my US pre-itenary sort of now before I take off to Europe and haven't broke out the North American Atlas just yet but have question for Texans. Having never been there before I do know how big and vast Texas is in comparison to other States exactly what city or town is Grand Prarie and the distance from Houston?
Is it feasible to take a bus from Houston to the next show or faster and more sensible to fly one-way?also Anyone driving from Houston to this one I can possibly car-pool with and share travel expenses with? Anyone serious can pm me. wink.gif

Grand Prairie is pretty much Dallas & its about a 4hr drive N from Houston, you can take a bus from Houston to Dallas is you leave in the morning you'll have plenty of time. It'll prob be cheaper then flying depending on what special airlines happen to be having right now. But from my experience with getting to the airport on time/flying/and getting off the plane it's about the same amount of time LOL

I am trying to see if I can make it to the Dallas show as well cause my best friend lives up there and it'd be her xmas present. She's actually most likely coming down here for the Houston show in stead of heading to Baton Rouge with me, then we'll leave nxt day to Dallas. But the problem I have at this moment is the radiator on my car, not sure how much it'll cost to fix the leak. dry.gif

EDIT: If you book the flight now it's only $25 one way!!!!!!! SOUTHWEST AIRLINES IS HAVING A SALE!
