Arriving & Departing

It’s easy to get to Irving. We are centrally located

between Dallas and Fort Worth in North Texas, and

in the center of the U.S. By air, Irving is less than

four hours from any major metropolitan area in the

continental U.S.

By Air

If you’re arriving by air, DFW International Airport (972-574-

6000, dfwairport.com), one of the world’s busiest airports, is

probably on your itinerary. Ground transportation is available

24 hours a day, 365 days a year via SuperShuttle (817-329-

2000, supershuttle.com). If you rent a car, exit the airport via

the south entrance (Airport Frwy/SH-183), or north via SH-114.

Rail access to and from DFW Airport is also available via Dallas

Area Rapid Transit’s (214-749-DART, dart.org) Orange Line,

with five Irving stations: Belt Line, North Lake College, Irving

Convention Center at Las Colinas, Las Colinas Urban Center

and University of Dallas.

The Metroplex’s other major airport is Dallas Love Field (214-

670-6073, dallas-lovefield.com), located at Cedar Springs Rd

and Mockingbird Ln in Dallas. Love Field handles more than

100 intrastate and regional flights daily. Shuttle service is

available through SuperShuttle. DART’s Orange Line stops at

Burbank Station, which services Love Field.

By Car

You can get to Irving from any direction, including I-35E

and US-75 (north-south), I-30 and I-20 (east-west), and I-45

(from Houston). The city itself is bordered by four highways:

I-635 to the north, Loop 12 (also known as Northwest

west. The major arteries within the city limits are O’Connor

Sporting Fun

Irving is serious when it comes to sports and it is

known for the proliferation of sports it enjoys. Located

in the center of Dallas/Fort Worth, its prime location

provides easy access to all of the major sports venues

in the area.

Professional Sporting Events

If you’re in town during football season, nothing beats the

excitement of the five-time world champion NFL Dallas

Cowboys playing at home in AT&T Stadium (817-892-4400). If

you like your sports on the rocks, take in an NHL Dallas Stars

hockey game (214-GO-STARS) at American Airlines Center. To

see baseball at its best, visit Globe Life Park in Arlington for a

Texas Rangers game (817-273-5100). Catch the NBA’s Dallas

Mavericks at the American Airlines Center (214-747-MAVS).

Or take in professional outdoor soccer action with FC Dallas

at Toyota Stadium in Frisco (469-365-0000). Texas Motor

Speedway (817-215-8500) offers Sprint Cup NASCAR and also

Indy-style racing, while Lone Star Park at Grand Prairie (972-

263-RACE) features world-class live horse racing in a seven-

level glass-enclosed, climate-controlled environment. And

check out Mesquite ProRodeo at Mesquite Arena (972-285-

8777) for a glimpse of Texas’ wilder side.

Golf Courses

Irving is a golfer’s dream, with five 18-hole courses within

the city limits, and dozens more within a 20-minute drive.

Among Irving’s finest courses are the world-class TPC Four

Seasons Resort and Club (972-717-0700, 4150 N MacArthur

Blvd) and the adjacent Cottonwood Valley Course; the TPC

hosts the PGA Tour’s AT&T Byron Nelson Championship

each spring. Golf enthusiasts will also enjoy nearby public

cigar-and-cognac room, a separate billiards area and large

bar. The Ranch at Las Colinas (972-506-7262, 857 W John

Carpenter Frwy) is one of the few places on earth where a

hard-working ranch hand and a high-powered businessman

could dine together and both feel comfortable. Enjoy live

music on The Porch most Tuesdays through Saturdays.

The giant video walls at Champps Americana (972-373-0333,

855 W John Carpenter Frwy) and its 13 satellite systems make

it a favorite of sports fans. Weekly promotions, including late-

night entertainment, keep Champps popular all evening.

Worth’s Stockyards District (817-624-7117), or Sundance

Square (817-255-5700) in downtown Fort Worth. Also, be sure

Lamar), a 93,000-square-foot special event destination in

downtown Dallas featuring venues like The Loft and The Jack

Daniel’s Saloon. Gilley’s Dallas hosts hundreds of DFW’s most

amazing events each year.

Nightlife Fun

While mention of the great state of Texas may call to

mind images of cowboys and rodeos, Irving and the DFW

Metroplex is actually a place where the nightlife scene is

just about as hip as anywhere in the country – and you

don’t need to know how to wrangle a bull to enjoy it!

If shooting the breeze and a game of billiards is your style,

enjoy an easy-going evening at the Flatland Grille in the

Doubletree – DFW North (972-929-8181, 4441 W John

Carpenter Frwy – Hwy 114 at Esters). Big game enthusiasts

will appreciate Urban Spur at the Dallas/Fort Worth Airport

the Omni Mandalay (972-556-0800, 221 E Las Colinas Blvd)

programming and billiards.

Set in a casual country club atmosphere is the Spirit Grille

(972-717-7575, 4030 N MacArthur Blvd), open until 2 am every

day. Cool River Cafe (972-871-8881, 1045 Hidden Ridge), at

23,000 square feet with seating for 750, is living proof that

people in Texas do things bigger. The massive dining rooms
