It takes more than 100 people and seven days to put together, but organizers say it was a labor of love.
"When we arrive, there is nothing here, so we build everything from the ground up," senior publicist Julie Desmarais said in a press statement. "Everything that you see on-site, we travel with ourselves. We are so excited to be back in Houston after 10 years!"
