Top Things to Do in Austin
About the City
With a slogan like 'Keep Austin Weird,' this Texan city promises an eclectic blend of experiences sure to charm tech gurus and music lovers alike. Imagine streets pulsing with the sounds of live music, as Austin is fondly dubbed the 'Live Music Capital of the World.' It's not just about the beats though; culinary aficionados rejoice in Austin's barbecue and taco scenes, which could easily turn brunch into a renowned Texan feast. Yet, for all its boisterous charm, Austin isn't without its downsides. Traffic can test the patience of saints and the summer heat scorches with a fury, challenging even the most enthusiastic sun-seekers. If you have allergies, brace yourself for the infamous 'Cedar Fever.' Nevertheless, it's the vibrant culture, iconic festivals like SXSW, picturesque outdoor spaces, and the ceaseless flow of creativity that keep Austinites loving their city and newcomers flocking to its exuberance, steering through the challenges for a taste of its indomitable spirit.
