TicketCity is based in Austin, Texas - so we are the local choice when you need tickets to any event in Austin. Austin is a great place to catch some live music and is often referred to as "the Live Music Capitol of the World", a name it lives up to with the numerous concert venues in-town. Football is king in the state of Texas, and Austin is home to the University of Texas and its Texas Longhorns. There’s an endless amount of events and fun in Austin, so whether it’s fun in the sun or the famous Austin nightlife you’re looking for, there is truly something for everyone in the Texas capital.

Sports in Austin

Austin is a just a big college town, and the sports in the city revolve around the Texas Longhorns. There are no major sports teams in the city, so the Longhorns reign supreme in being the biggest ticket in town. The football and baseball teams both won a National Championship as recently as 2005, and the Horns basketball team has reached the Elite 8 three time in the last decade. There are also minor league teams in the area, including the Texas Stars, Round Rock Express and Austin Toros.

Concerts in Austin

Austin is filled with live music every night of the week, and you’ll be sure to catch a great show any time you’re in the city. From the brand new Austin360 Amphitheatre to Stubbs, the biggest bands take the stage across the city to rock with the music-savvy Austin crowds.

Spring in Austin

While Austin enjoys nice weather all year, the spring is a particularly good time to be in the capital of Texas. The highs into the 80s and lows in the 60s make it nice for any type of activity, from an outdoor concert to anything lake-related.

Spring is when baseball finally gets up and going, and with the six-time National Champion Texas Longhorns and the AAA Round Rock Express in town, there’s plenty of baseball to go around. The Horns play at Disch-Falk Field, across I-35 from the UT campus. The stadium has gone through renovations over the last few years and is one of the best places to take in college baseball. The Express home field, Dell Diamond, is north of the city in Round Rock and was opened in April of 2000.

Summer in Austin

The Austin summers are hot, but definitely not unmanageable. The nights are nice and there’s plenty to do in the city. Concerts take place every night of the week in the downtown area at places like Stubbs, the Frank Erwin Center and the Moody Theatre at ACL Live. Riverside has become the new area for live music, with legendary Emo’s and Antone’s relocating from downtown over the last few years. Around town, there’s the Austin360 Amphitheater at Circuit of the Americas and the Cedar Park Center that host some of the biggest names in music.

Fall in Austin

It’s all about football in the state of Texas when fall comes around, and that means one thing in Austin – Longhorns season. The Texas Longhorns are one of the most successful college football programs in the country and have won four national championships as well as two Heisman trophy winners. There’s nothing like a Saturday game day in Austin, when the area around the UT campus is turned into a sprawling tailgate zone packed with fans wearing burnt orange.

Also in the fall is Austin’s biggest music festival, Austin City Limits (ACL). Bands from all over the world come and take party in this two-weekend festival that packs some of the biggest names in music into Zilker Park for the musical experience of a life time. Over the years, bands like Pearl Jam, Coldplay, Eagles, The Strokes and Kanye West have played the festival, and it’s always one of the most anticipated festivals in the world.

Austin is not just football and music though, theatre fans can warm up to Broadway touring shows, great comedy acts or other great performances at the Long Center's Michael & Susan Dell theatre, Bass Concert Hall or the Paramount. The United States Grand Prix is now held in Austin every November at the Circuit of the Americas, one the best Formula 1 tracks in the world.

Winter in Austin

Winter means basketball and hockey, and Austin has both. The Texas Longhorns basketball team gets up and running, and with alum such as Kevin Durant and LaMarcus Aldridge having suited up for the Horns, you know you could see the next NBA superstar at any time in Austin. Texas has made it deep into the NCAA tournament in recent years but is still looking for that elusive National Championship. The Texas Stars are also in full swing by the winter season, and hockey at the Cedar Park Center is always a fun way to spend a night.

Another great way to catch some live music in Austin is at the Austin Rodeo. The Star of Texas Fair and Rodeo has been a staple to the capital cities tradition for decades. Rodeo Austin comes to life for two weeks out of the year in March filling the Travis County Expo Center with all the bull riding and country music any rodeo fan could ask for.

Major Events in Austin

Austin has been home to events like the NCAA tournament, the Davis Cup and WWE Wrestling, among many others. Currently Austin plays host to the U.S. Grand Prix.
