Austin events today.
Everything on in Austin today and tonight, in one list.
Every event we know about in Austin today, sorted by start time, from morning markets to late shows.
How to use today's list
This is the single-day list for Austin and the towns around it, from museum hours and happy hours to headliners, and it refreshes through the day as venues post changes. If you are deciding what to do tonight, scan the evening entries, filter by neighborhood, and save anything you want to come back to.
Reading today's list
Times are local and listed in order, so the first cards are what is on now or soon. Free events are tagged, and the category chips narrow the list to music, food, art, and more.
When today is thin
Weeknights in Austin are lighter than weekends, though Red River and South Congress keep live music going most nights. If nothing fits, the weekend page is usually the next best bet, and the calendar shows what the rest of the month looks like.
Before you head out
Door times, ticket availability, and weather calls can change on the day. Open an event for the full description and use the organizer link to confirm anything time-sensitive.
