Earthx2023 Expo

When Trammell S. Crow founded EarthX (originally Earth Day Texas), he envisioned creating a space where everyone could come together to find meaningful solutions to enrich and protect our planet, without regard to politics or philosophical differences. Now, more than a decade later, that vision has become EarthX, which annually hosts the EarthxExpo, the largest green gathering in the world. EarthxExpo returns to Dallas Fair Park for Earth Week this year, April 21-23.

The free event, which encourages us to love the world we live in, features hundreds of planned exhibitors and eight public stages and three full days of learning and interactive experiences, outdoor activities, entertainment, music and food, all working to provide achievable solutions for a more sustainable future.

There is a reason that thousands of families flock to EarthX each year. Whether you are a homeschool family seeking enrichment or just looking for a way to have fun while learning new things, EarthX has dozens of ways for families to learn and play together. Key features:
- Kids Kup – Bike safety area for children
- Inflatable Planetarium with shows all weekend
- OmniGlobe – a 3D spherical display that combines entertainment and education by allowing users to play animations on a wide range of scientific topics.
- Science on a Sphere – a room-sized global display system that teaches about everything from atmospheric storms to climate change to changes in ocean temperatures.
- Fun VR and AR installations in The Oasis, which allow students to experience history, science and environmental issues in a whole new way.
- Dallas Zoo brings its conservationists, animal visits, and hands-on activities
- Face painting and more entertainers

EarthxExpo features more than 700,000 square feet of learning and exploration, with special activations featuring:
- Dozens of free hands-on activities and crafts for children including an immersive planetarium from Dallas ISD.
- The Adult Playground, where those over 21 can experience and learn from sustainability leaders while enjoying an adult beverage.
- The Oasis, a XR installation designed to bring the world to you in new and innovative ways
- The world’s largest EV & Alternative Fuel car show – featuring test drives of the most current EV technology.
- Eight stages packed with speakers, panel discussions, short films and more.

Additionally, guests at the Expo will have the chance to sample, experience or purchase products from nearly hundreds of planned vendors, which range from local agencies and nonprofits to national brands to the country’s most innovative start-ups and new technologies.

While the Expo is free, registering allows guests to take advantage of an innovative experience planner allowing attendees to customize their schedule to capture those events, activations and experiences that address their personal interests and drives.

In addition to the EarthxExpo, EarthX will also convene its Congress of Conferences, which brings together the top thought leaders from around the world to address issues of sustainability, climate and global innovation. The Congress of Conferences features a broad spectrum of topical conference tracks and will be held April 19–23.
