Airports

Mason’s Fairfax Campus is located near IAD-Dulles International Airport, DCA-Reagan International Airport, and BWI-Baltimore Washington International Airport. The closest is Dulles, closely followed by DCA. For those looking for cheaper flights with a bit more driving distance, BWI can often be significantly more reasonable, particularly for those coming from the Midwest. However, traffic can make the commute to the hotel from the airport a bit long.

Parking

The closest parking location to on campus debates is the Shenandoah Parking Deck, 10400 York River Rd. Make sure to park in the deck area labeled VISITORS. The Enterprise Building is the most immediate debate building to the deck, located immediately in front of the deck. Innovation Hall (where snacks and food will be) is behind Enterprise.
