About The Elephant Room
The Elephant Room on Congress Avenue is Austin's underground jazz institution — a low-ceilinged basement club that has hosted legendary jazz performances seven nights a week since 1991, operating as a counterpoint to Sixth Street's louder honky-tonk scene. Formula 1 COTA fans, UT Longhorns football supporters, and Austin music devotees all discover it as the city's most rewarding late-night experience, where world-class jazz musicians perform in an intimate setting for true music fans. The lack of gimmickry and total focus on the music make The Elephant Room a spiritual sanctuary for fans of live sound.

The Broken Spoke
Austin's last true honky-tonk, serving cold beer and two-stepping since 1964. Willie Nelson, George Strait, and Dolly Parton have all played here. During SXSW and ACL, this is the authentic Austin experience that draws celebrities looking for the real Texas.
Banger's Sausage House & Beer Garden
A massive Rainey Street beer garden with over 100 taps, house-made sausages, and live music on the patio. During SXSW, Formula 1 weekend at COTA, and UT Longhorns football Saturdays, Banger's becomes Austin's ultimate outdoor sports-and-music gathering spot.
Midnight Cowboy
Reservation-only speakeasy on Dirty Sixth Street hidden behind an unmarked door, serving exquisitely crafted cocktails. Austin FC fans and SXSW visitors seek out this intimate hideaway for a refined escape from the city's raucous live music scene.
Easy Tiger Bake Shop & Beer Garden
Easy Tiger's East Sixth Street beer garden is a sprawling outdoor space that has become a favorite pre-game gathering spot for UT Longhorns fans, live music festival-goers, and Formula 1 fans descending on Austin during the US Grand Prix weekend. The enormous outdoor deck, excellent German-style sausages, and carefully curated draft beer list provide the perfect warmup to a big Austin sports weekend, and the relaxed atmosphere encourages lingering. On Longhorns home-game Saturdays, burnt orange fills the garden and the vibe rivals any college town tailgate.
