Irving Convention and Visitor's Bureau A department of the City of Irving, the Convention and Visitors Bureau reports to a board of directors appointed by the Irving City Council annually in November. Board terms are two-year commitments; appointees may serve a maximum of three consecutive terms. The board of directors makes recommendations to the city council about convention facilities, assists with attracting visitors to the city, and hires the executive director. It is a policy-making board.
In November of each year, the board elects its new chairman and vice chairman, and committee positions are established following that meeting. The board meets at 11:15 a.m. on the fourth Monday of each month at an announced Irving location. Correspondence to Board members may be directed to the Irving Convention and Visitors Bureau, 222 W. Las Colinas Blvd., Suite 1550, Irving, Texas, 75039.
