JW Marriott Austin
Host venue, on site to venue
The conference hotel, so booking here removes daily transfers; reserve early because conference blocks fill quickly in spring.

Approx. 0.4 mi, 8-12 min walk to venue
Large full-service hotel close to 4th Street, convenient for a short walk to sessions and evening receptions.
Austin Marriott Downtown
Approx. 0.5 mi, 10-12 min walk to venue
Close to the 2nd and 4th Street corridor and the venue; good fallback when the host hotel block is full.
Hyatt Regency Austin
Approx. 1 mi, 20-30 min walk or short rideshare to venue
Waterfront property across Lady Bird Lake; budget a short rideshare (approx. USD 8-15) or a longer walk along the hike and bike trail.
Local transport
Get around the city with these convenient transport options.
bus
Estimated costUSD 2.50-6 single metro/light-rail journey (contactless)
Best forAustin-Bergstrom International (AUS) to downtown Austin on CapMetro Route 100 Airport Flyer
Route 100 links the airport terminal with downtown stops within walking distance of Congress Avenue hotels; allow 35-50 minutes including waiting time.
rail
Estimated costUSD 2.50-6 single metro/light-rail journey (contactless)
Best forCapMetro MetroRail Red Line to Downtown Station
Useful if you stay north of the river or near a Red Line park-and-ride; Downtown Station is a short walk to the JW Marriott Austin. Weekend service is limited.
taxi
Estimated costApprox. USD 30-40 metered taxi, one way
Best forAustin-Bergstrom International (AUS) to JW Marriott Austin
Taxis wait at the terminal curb; the trip is roughly 8 miles and 20-30 minutes outside peak traffic.
rideshare
Estimated costApprox. USD 8-15 per trip before surge pricing
Best forDowntown hotel to JW Marriott Austin
Uber and Lyft cover downtown Austin; for Congress Avenue hotels walking is often faster than waiting for a car during session start times.
parking
Estimated costApprox. USD 25-45 per day, higher during citywide events
Best forDowntown Austin public garage near the venue
Hotel valet at the host property is typically more expensive than pre-booked garages on 2nd, 3rd and 4th Street; confirm rates with the operator.
walking
Estimated costNo fare; 5-20 minutes on foot
Best forCongress Avenue and 2nd-4th Street hotel cluster to the venue
Downtown Austin is grid-planned and walkable, but sidewalks are busy at session start times and April storms can force a detour under cover.
Weather
April is one of Austin's wetter months, with average daytime highs around 27 C (81 F) and overnight lows near 16 C (61 F). Spring thunderstorms can bring short, heavy downpours and brief street flooding. Meeting rooms are heavily air conditioned, so keep a layer with you and check a local forecast 48 hours before travel.
Plan for the climate
Check temperatures and pack accordingly
Venue connectivity
US mobile networks (AT&T, T-Mobile, Verizon) cover downtown Austin well. International visitors should buy an eSIM or confirm their roaming plan before departure. Power is 120V at 60Hz with Type A and B plugs, so UK and European devices need an adapter and often a voltage converter. Hotel and venue Wi-Fi is usually available but can congest at peak session times, so a mobile hotspot is a useful backup for demo laptops.

Cultural notes
Useful information to help you have a smooth and respectful visit.
Business dress
Business casual is the norm on the TEXPO floor, with jackets and ties more common among bankers and vendor sales teams. Add a blazer for evening receptions.
Tipping
Tipping is expected in Austin: 15-20 percent at restaurants, a dollar or two per drink at bars, and a few dollars per night for hotel housekeeping.
Greetings and follow-up
A handshake and first-name introductions are standard in Texas business settings. Exchange cards freely and send follow-up emails within a week of the conference.
Downtown layout
Downtown Austin is compact and grid-planned, so Congress Avenue, 2nd Street and 4th Street hotels are all walkable to the JW Marriott Austin; allow extra time when the morning session crush hits.
Evening hosting
Austin's 2nd and 4th Street restaurant rows and Rainey Street entertainment district fill quickly during conference weeks, so book client dinners ahead if you are hosting bankers or vendors.
April storms
Spring weather can turn suddenly. Keep a compact umbrella in your bag and allow a margin before any fixed meeting if a downpour coincides with a session break.
Practical guides
Visitor & Exhibitor Essentials
Everything needed to arrive prepared, navigate the event, and make the visit productive.
Flights
Destination: AUS
Austin-Bergstrom (AUS) has nonstop service from most major US hubs and a limited set of international gateways, so delegates from Europe or Asia usually connect through DFW, IAH, ORD or ATL. Book 4-8 weeks ahead for April travel, plan to land the afternoon before your first session, and check whether your hotel offers an airport shuttle before relying on rideshare. If AUS fares spike, compare San Antonio (SAT) with a rental car or coach transfer into Austin.
Transport
Get to the venue and around the city with these options.
Airport → venue: Primary gateways: Austin-Bergstrom International (AUS). Allow road or rail time to JW Marriott Austin; on-site parking is usually available at major exhibition venues.
Hotel → venue: Precinct hotels near JW Marriott Austin: JW Marriott Austin; Hilton Austin; Austin Marriott Downtown.
Ride-hail: Uber and Lyft both operate across Austin. At Austin-Bergstrom (AUS), follow signs to the designated rideshare pickup area rather than the taxi curb, as the two zones are separate. Rides between Congress Avenue hotels and the JW Marriott Austin are short and typically USD 8-15 before surge. Expect surge pricing at conference opening and closing hours and after evening receptions, and pre-book your airport return the night before departure.
Public transit: CapMetro runs Austin's bus and rail network. Route 100 Airport Flyer links Austin-Bergstrom (AUS) with downtown, and the MetroRail Red Line terminates at Downtown Station, a short walk from Congress Avenue hotels. Local single bus rides run around USD 1.25, commuter rail fares are higher at approximately USD 3.50, and day passes can be bought in the CapMetro app. Service thins out at weekends, so check Sunday timetables before relying on transit.
Parking: The JW Marriott Austin offers valet and self-park garage options for guests. Downtown public garages near 2nd, 3rd and 4th Street typically charge approximately USD 25-45 per day, with event rates higher during large citywide conferences. Some downtown properties allow valet only, so confirm the policy and current rate with the hotel or garage operator before driving in from outside Austin.
Weather
Plan and pack for the event climate.
Month: April 2027
Temperature: Daytime highs typically reach 24-29 C (75-85 F) with overnight lows near 14-18 C (57-65 F). Meeting rooms are kept cool for business dress, so bring a layer.
Seasonality: April averages roughly 2-3 inches of rain and sits inside central Texas storm season. Showers are often short but intense, usually building in the afternoon or evening, and can briefly flood low crossings downtown.
Packing: Pack light layers for warm days and cool meeting rooms, a compact umbrella or rain shell, and comfortable walking shoes for downtown blocks. Bring business casual plus one blazer for bank-hosted receptions, and a Type A/B power adapter if you are travelling from Europe or Asia.
Plan your trip
Planning
Best day to visit: Day 2 (mid-show)
Mid-show days at TEXPO Conference usually combine full exhibitor attendance with scheduled B2B meetings, before early pack-down on the final day.
Day 14

Day 12
Book the JW Marriott Austin or a Congress Avenue hotel so the venue is walkable; downtown Austin rates tighten in spring conference weeks.
Day 10
Reserve air travel into Austin-Bergstrom (AUS) and plan to land the afternoon before your first session.
Day 9
Map the programme against the treasury topics you own this year - payments, liquidity, fraud controls, FX - and list the banks or TMS vendors you want to meet on the floor.
Day 7
Prepare a one-page summary of your current bank and TMS stack plus two pain points so vendor conversations stay concrete.
Day 5
Install the CapMetro app and check Route 100 Airport Flyer and Red Line timetables if you plan to skip rideshare.
Day 4
Notify your card providers of travel, check whether your mobile plan covers US data or buy an eSIM, and pack a Type A/B power adapter if you are travelling from Europe or Asia.
Day 3
Pack business casual with one blazer for bank-hosted receptions, plus a compact umbrella for April thunderstorms.
Day 2
Save your registration confirmation, hotel booking and venue directions offline; screenshot any QR code issued for badge pickup.
Day 1
Arrive early on the first morning for badge pickup, walk the exhibit floor before sessions begin, and keep the late afternoon for follow-up meetings.

Answers
Frequently asked
What is TEXPO?
TEXPO is a treasury management conference and exhibition organized by the Alliance of Texas Treasury Associations. It brings corporate, institutional and public-sector treasury practitioners together with banks, TMS vendors and advisory firms for sessions and exhibit-floor meetings at the JW Marriott Austin.
When and where is TEXPO 2027 held?
The 2027 edition is scheduled for April 2027 at the JW Marriott Austin in downtown Austin, Texas. Confirm the exact session days and start times on the organiser schedule at texpoconference.org before booking flights or hotels.
Who attends TEXPO?
Attendees are treasury and finance professionals: corporate treasurers, cash managers, treasury analysts, CFO and controller offices, public-sector treasury staff, plus the bankers, TMS vendors, money market fund providers and consultants who serve them.
How much does registration cost?
Published tiers list USD 450 for corporate or institutional treasury practitioners and for exhibitor or sponsor personnel, and USD 725 for non-exhibiting or non-sponsoring bank or supplier personnel. Rates and early-bird deadlines can change year to year, so check the registration page before paying.
What topics does the programme cover?
Sessions and exhibit-floor conversations focus on cash and liquidity management, payments modernization including real-time rails, bank relationship and fee management, fraud prevention and payment controls, FX and counterparty risk, and treasury technology selection.
Can I register on site?
On-site registration availability is set by the organiser each year. Registering online in advance secures the tier that applies to your role and avoids queues at badge pickup on the first morning.
How do I get from Austin-Bergstrom Airport to the venue?
Rideshare or taxi is the quickest option, roughly 8 miles and 20-30 minutes in normal traffic at about USD 25-40 one way. CapMetro Route 100 Airport Flyer connects the terminal with downtown for a local bus fare, and the MetroRail Red Line reaches Downtown Station from the north.
Where should I stay for TEXPO?
The JW Marriott Austin is the host property. Several downtown hotels along Congress Avenue, 2nd Street and 4th Street are a 5-20 minute walk away, which matters most when sessions start early and evening receptions run late.
What is the dress code?
Business casual is the norm on the floor and in sessions, with jackets and ties more common among bank and vendor teams. Bring a blazer for evening receptions and a light layer because meeting rooms are air conditioned.
Will I earn CPE or CTP credits for attending?
Credit eligibility is set by the organiser and can vary by year and session. Check the session descriptions on texpoconference.org, or ask the Alliance of Texas Treasury Associations directly, before submitting any credit claim.
Is there parking at the venue?
The JW Marriott Austin offers valet and self-park options for guests, and downtown garages near 2nd, 3rd and 4th Street typically charge around USD 25-45 per day, higher during large citywide events. Confirm current rates with the hotel or garage operator.
