South by Southwest
The largest and most important of the many live music events for
which Austin is renowned is the annual South by Southwest festival,
held at more than 50 venues around the city and drawing performers
from around the world. The festival programme includes 1,000
performances on more than 50 stages over a five-day period. In
recent years the festival has expanded to encompass film and
multi-media, both these categories now forming separate
extravaganzas to make South by Southwest a convergence of
entertainment and media. Call the South by Southwest Headquarters
