STAY AND PLAY IN AUSTIN
We may be biased, but we think March in Austin is the best!
We hope you’ll get to spend a little extra time exploring, and we are crossing our fingers for great weather.
All activities centered around our festivities are in Central Austin (if you haven’t been here in a while, the town has grown a lot!) and shouldn’t take more than 20 minutes to get to.
That said, Austin traffic gets more intense by the day, so check travel times inn advance.
The map on the right shows key locations for the weekend. Check out distances and drive times on the interactive version.

WHERE TO STAY
We have three centrally located options for y’all:
South Central, North Central, and Northeast
