Registration is open now for Real Places 2025! Join us April 23-25 in Austin or online for the premier historic preservation and heritage tourism conference in the Lone Star State: http://realplaces.us

Presented by the Friends of the Texas Historical Commission and Phoenix I Restoration and Construction, LLC, Real Places provides an opportunity for preservationists and officials to network and learn with County Historical Commissions, Main Street managers, historic preservation officers, architects and engineers, historians, archeologists, museum curators and managers, interpreters, as well as THC staff, Texas Heritage Trail Regions, and many partner organizations.

The full schedule includes over 100 expert speakers from across Texas and the U.S., more than 50 sessions, workshops, tours, and fun and exciting activities. Whether joining us online or in person, sessions will be recorded and available to all attendees.

New this year are our “Basic” and “Premium” registration options. Premium registration is exactly what you’ve come to expect if you’ve attended Real Places before. Basic registration does not include breakfasts or lunches.
Save up to $155 on registration with the early-bird rate, which only lasts through December 20. Courthouse Stewards, students, and organizations registering multiple people simultaneously can receive additional discounts. A la carte pricing is also available for single-day registrations and special events.
