You can’t have a group of moms with travel plans and NOT have an itinerary packed with all the ways this weekend could go… so here it is, friends.

Let’s talk travel + things to do in DFW.

Travel:

When booking tickets, there are two airports you can fly into: DFW Airport (25 min) or Love Field (40 min). Both have ample access to rideshare services (Uber, Lyft, etc.) to your hotel.

Lodging:

You’re welcome to pick any hotel local to Fort Worth, but we’ve included a few recs below! (*You will receive the exact location of the event upon ticket purchase)

Local Transportation:

We recommend using rideshare services throughout your trip, or you can rent a car if preferred. If you’re comfortable using public transportation, there is a train from DFW Airport to Downtown Fort Worth, although you will need to use rideshare once arriving in Fort Worth.

Things to Do:

Here’s your excuse to make the most of all things Texas—where to first?
