| Ya I wouldn't suggest walking around downtown after dark. The show is held at the convention center and there isn't a whole lot to do real close by if I remember correctly. |

| The bars and clubs down in deep ellum arent too far from the convention center. A very cheap taxi ride from any of the downtown hotels. |

Depends on the area.....Im from dallas, born and raised there so I dont feel uncomfortable at all walking in dallas in most areas. Reality, downtown isnt that bad, I wouldnt feel scared walking around at night downtown. However, Two ladies probably shouldnt walk around any downtown of any city at night.
The club district Deep Ellum is pretty much downtown and that is a very safe area to walk around. Right by the convention center downtown is city haul, which is where most of the homeless bums hang out. Therefore, I wouldnt walk at night around the convention center.
Now, where you want to hang out would depend on what kind of bar or music you like. Deep ellum is more of the alternative dance/rock/blues/live music bars and clubs.
If you like Country, then you have Gillys which is kind of the touristy country bar. Not to far from downtown there is a country bar called Red river. Huge and a pretty cool place.
If you want the exclusive "pretty people" hang out. There is a bar called Ghostbar. Really cool place with a lot of celebrities hanging out there. However, its one of those bars with the snooty door man turing people away that dont "fit in" In other words. Two single ladies who look good would have no problem getting past the doorman. The only way a man is going to get in there is if he looks like he is rich or he looks like he is a model.
Im guessing because of the location of GATS and the steriotype that a lot of drivers like country, most of the GATS attendees would be hanging out at Gillys. |
