American Meat Institute Dallas Convention Center May 1-3, 2012

Dallas inspires big ideas. This big and bold approach has resulted in world-class arts, culture, architecture, business and more, which are changing the face of the city. As the fourth-largest metro area in the United States with more than $12 billion in urban development underway, the nation's largest urban arts district, a battalion of celebrity chefs, the Southwest's best shopping and a national sports spotlight year-round…let's just say we've definitely moved beyond 10-gallon hats and cattle.

With many entertainment districts within a short distance of downtown, Dallas provides local history mixed with a melting pot of arts, culture, dining and more.
