With direct flights to 263 airports, the DFW International Airport is a global travel hub and the Hurst Conference Center is a short 10 minute ride away. Additionally those interested in exploring Dallas and Fort Worth during their time in Texas will just be minutes away from these world class cities!

  • 10 minutes from the Dallas Fort Worth International Airport
  • 15 minutes from downtown Fort Worth
  • 25 minutes from downtown Dallas and Love Field Airport

To care for our out of town guests, complimentary shuttle service is being provided within a five mile radius of the conference center. Please call the Hilton Garden Inn Hurst Conference Center at least 24 hours ahead of your stay to request a ride or to request an airport pickup. 

Convention registration fees are transferable but non-refundable.

Post on the AYP social wall to find other AYPers looking for a roommate or a ride. 

Due to limited space as well as the fact that meals are catered in the same space as programming, the Sabbath program will not be open to the public. Only those who have registered will be allowed to participate in the event. Individuals who are not registered and come on Sabbath will kindly be asked to leave. 

Please email Jazzmine Bankston, AYP Convention Director at Jazzmine.Bankston@AYP.me with any questions or comments.
