Texas FFA uses a single point of access housing service provided by Orchid Event Solutions for all the convention hotels.  All housing block hotel reservations must be made utilizing this service.  Please see the Texas FFA 2025 Housing Instructions document below for instructions prior to making your reservation.

The Texas FFA Convention Housing Block will open on Wednesday, January 21 at 4 pm.  Please mark your calendars and be prepared to make your selections beforehand. A quick reference video to walk you through the steps for booking rooms through the Orchid Housing Block is posted below to assist you in preparing. 

Reservations made at non-headquarters hotels can be canceled or changed without penalty until April 22.  Rooms canceled after April 22 will be subject to a charge of 1 night room and tax for each room canceled. Reservations made at Omni, Sheraton, and Hilton Downtown are non-cancelable and nonrefundable after March 13, 2026. Rooms canceled at these hotels after March 13 will be charged 1 night room and tax for each room canceled.

Reservations will only be accepted online through the housing link. For questions or special requests only, please contact Orchid Events at 800-989-4008.

1. Review the hotel list before housing opens to know your top three or four hotel choices.

2. Do not book Sunday rooms unless you are certain you will need them – Sunday night can usually be added to your reservation when your plans are firm later in the spring. 

3. A “waiting room” feature will again be utilized on the housing website that will control traffic and allow maximum speed once you are in the housing site. You may see a screen that tells you how much time you have to wait before booking, much like a hold feature on a telephone call.  DO NOT exit or refresh your screen, this will only delay your access to the housing site.

5. Choose “1 guest” per room when prompted in the housing website (more details in the instructions page linked above and found on the Texas FFA website.)
