Centrally situated between Dallas and Fort Worth in northern Texas, Irving was officially incorporated April 14, 1914. This sports-obsessed community is one of the USA’s most diverse cities, a true melting pot of cultures, religions, races, nationalities and beliefs, giving it a uniquely vibrant atmosphere. 

The PTO US Open is based in Irving’s Levy Event Plaza, which opened in 2020 and skirts the edge of Lake Carolyn in the city’s Las Colinas Urban Center. The Las Colinas area boasts stunning lakeside trails and a wealth of dining, hotel and entertainment options fit for the whole family. This includes the Toyota Music Factory, the centrepiece of the entire Dallas-Fort Worth metropolitan area – a buzzing combination of bars, restaurants and entertainment venues that will satisfy any taste in outdoor activities, food, music and movies.

With plenty of sun, a huge outdoor playground to explore and varied day- and night-life options, this buzzing location will satisfy both athletes and supporters seeking a memorable vacation experience.
