Dating back to 2003, Free Week is an annual event focusing on eating, drinking, and celebrating live music. It served as a way to keep performances and live music going at clubs and venues during a time where the city's liveliness starts to die down (the beginning of January, one of the coldest points of winter). And now, it stretches from Austin to Nashville, bringing in thousands of attendees eager to hear great music for free. Check back here for a lineup of performances and more info.

Take A Hike

Take A Hike
Austin's mild winter means January is an excellent time to hike some of the beautiful trails surrounding the city.  Beginners will want to start on an easier path like Mayfield Nature Preserve, but avid hikers can take advantage of the River Place Nature Trail, a particularly difficult hike that will test your limits.

Enjoy Winter-Themed Cocktails Across The City
