Things To Do

These days Austin is big not only in Texas, but across the world. Thanks to the establishment of major cultural events and festivals, a hip food scene, and high-tech and arts incubators fostering the creative community, it’s become one of the hottest destinations for travelers and residents alike. Also home to the University of Texas, the state’s eclectic and wildly popular capital is a magnet for music, food, and new business. Austin has a vibe all its own; not only is it known as the “Live Music Capital of the World,” its offbeat scene gave rise to the city’s other motto, “Keep Austin Weird”—a way to keep the focus on the independent artisans and entrepreneurs who helped build it into the attraction it is today. With a vibrant mass of bars and music venues that launched the careers of artists like Willie Nelson and Janis Joplin, an Austin trip will make you feel both that you’re far from anywhere you’ve ever been in the U.S.—yet somehow perfectly at home. -Travel and Leisure
