A Tex Shredding

Get ready for the musical event of the year, the Austin City Limits Music Festival, where they feature a diverse lineup of acts every year with 9 stages, 100+ performances, and best of all, two weekends. Enjoy new artists like The National share the stage with heavyweights like Dave Matthews Band and Norah Jones. There’s plenty to do in between sets, including a mini-fest for kids, photogenic spaces, sponsored giveaways, and merch to bring home with you.

Explore the elegant side of Austin at the Neill-Cochran House, considered one of the city's three most important historic residences, where you'll discover several rooms decorated with 1780-1925 furniture. Tour the historic home and hear several stories about the many occupants over the years, including the Texas School for the Blind and its occupation by federal troops during Reconstruction. The home is open for daily tours and is a living history lesson on how Austin went from a sleepy outpost to the state capital to the home of one of the largest universities in the country.
