LETTER FROM THE CHAIRMAN TRAVELERS KNOW WHERE ™

elcome to the fi rst issue of WhereTraveler magazine, which has been in the making for 83 years. Where magazine, our flagship publication, has been the traveler’s friend since it was first published in 1936. It’s been a great ride but, as with any voyage, one can’t stay in the same place. With the May 2019 issue, we embark on an exciting new adventure as Where takes on a new look and a new name. Like its predecessor, WhereTraveler magazine continues our tradition of offering the best insider information about the local market but with a dynamic new design that speaks to today’s traveler. Even the most experienced traveler knows that having a local friend with inside knowledge of a destination makes a trip all the more special, someone who not only knows the essential, not-tobe-missed sights but also the city’s hidden treasures. For millions of travelers each year, that friend is WhereTraveler magazine, providing valuable advice through print and digital products that cover more than 100 cities, making WhereTraveler the world’s premier travel brand. The new look is sleek and modern, as represented by the new logo, and the compact size makes the magazine conveniently portable. Inside is the same great content we have always provided but in a more concise model, packed with useful information in a fun and visually dramatic format. We show you the best places to shop and dine, the landmarks and attractions not to be missed. We guide you to experiences that will help you make the most of your visit. Our redesigned

Guide section now includes up to 50 percent more listings. Once you have explored the city you are in, WhereTraveler will help you prepare for your next trip. See our new Where Next page, featuring photos from markets around the nation where you will also find WhereTraveler magazine. Then visit our website, wheretraveler. com, which offers travel information on 100 destinations around the world. I hope you enjoy this debut issue of WhereTraveler magazine and that you will look for it at your next destination.

WHAT’S HAPPENING

Chaos, farce and slapstick are the hallmarks of the Olivier Award-winning comedy “The Play That Goes Wrong.” A glorious mash-up of Monty Python and Sherlock Holmes, the play introduces you to a theater troupe’s disastrous opening night, which goes from bad to rock bottom in spectacular fashion. And so the stage is set to have you roaring with laughter from the get-go. Winspear Opera House, 2403 Flora St., 214.880.0202, www.attpac.org

GLOBE LIFE PARK

n 1994, Globe Life Park, then known as the Ballpark in Arlington, became the new home to the Texas Rangers. Like new stadiums of the era, it was state-of-the-art, but harkened back to the glory days of baseball with simple touches such as a granite and brick façade. The Rangers and Milwaukee Brewers officially christened the field on April 11, 1994; it will be the Rangers and New York Yankees saying goodbye with the park’s last regular season game on Sun., Sept. 29. The park will make way for Globe Life Field, a $1.1 billion structure rising up across the street. It features a retractable roof with sections made of see-through material, allowing for an outdoor feel with the roof closed, while natural grass will be replaced with an artificial surface. The new stadium, which broke ground Sept. 28, 2017, is slated to open in March 2020. At Globe Life Park, the Rangers’ yearly attendance never dipped below 1.9 million, with a high of 3,460,280 in 2012. In

the park’s first 24 years, fans have seen numerous individual and team accomplishments, including seven A.L. West titles and back-to-back World Series trips in 2010 and 2011. Adrian Beltre, who spent the last eight years of his 21-year career with the Rangers, recorded his 3,000th hit at home in 2017, while Juan Gonzalez (1996, 1998), Ivan Rodriguez (1999), Alex Rodriguez (2003) and Josh Hamilton (2010) were all American League MVPs. Rangers management is treating their fans and honoring their current and former players with special events and giveaways. On May 5, the first 15,000 fans will receive a Coca Cola/Kroger “The Catch” Gary Matthews Jr. bobblehead, while the first 15,000 on May 19 will take home a Carter Blood Care Final Season logo cap. On June 1-2, a Josh Hamilton bobblehead and Globe Life Park T-shirt will be handed out, respectively. On June 8, an Adrian Beltre bobblehead is the prize, while an Elvis Andrus infield base set goes to the first 5,000 fans 13-and-under on June 9. M AY- JU N E 2 0 1 9
