Travel Info
True Realm takes place in a huge 40,000 s.f. warehouse outside a small town in southern Illinois. It is easy to find — just 6 miles west off of exit 59 on Interstate 57. There will be plenty of signs along the way to guide you, but there are no turns to make.

By Airplane:
The Williamson County Regional Airport is about 1 mile from the official True Realm hotels, and it is about seven miles from the event site. The airport code is MWA. Great Lakes Airline is a regional carrier who has luggage agreements with MANY of the airlines that fly into St. Louis, MO. (STL). Be sure to check the Greak Lakes website for a list of national carriers they have luggage agreements with. This will make it easier for you as your luggage will automatically be forwarded with your flights.
NOTE: The Williamson County Regional Airport (WMA) is a small airport that offers a stress-free and easy gateway into the whole secured flying system. There are no big waits or long lines — which makes it very nice when you are entering and leaving that airport.
The WMA also have a Hertz rental office there so renting a car for the weekend is easy. At this time we don’t have any firm plans to offer shuttle service from the airport or the event.
