If you only go to one National Garden Railway Convention,
this is the one to attend
The Bay Area Garden Railway Society is the largest in North America
Its 400+ members are pulling out all the stops to make this a spectacular convention
You will not get to see more than 60 open garden railroads in a week anywhere else
There is only one Napa Valley Wine Train and one Roaring Camp Railroad
Celebrate July 4 poolside with adult beverages
Opportunities to extend your Hyatt stay at a great rate
And Vendors
We attracted a record 2,000+ people to the Convention Public Day in 2016
Many vendors reported record one day sales
In 2016 we had almost no following on social media:
Now we have 2,500 followers
Using social media, we aim to break our own public day attendance record this year
The Bay Area IS the place to be in ‘23
