Howdy,
Welcome to Austin!

Getting around Austin & planning ahead

Austin isn't that big, you'll get to most places within 20-30 minutes (as long as it isn't rush hour).

Don't expect to use public transportation. There are scooters and petty cabs in a few areas, but walking and Lyft are your best bets.

Comments from past attendees:

- Great speakers and unique attendees - not so bogged down in research tech sales.

- The sessions were varied in topic and format with rich content. I thought the few extracurriculars were fun including the fortune teller and the Starbucks raffles. The food was great.

- The day was great overall! I loved the speakers and the day flowed really well. Really enjoyed the event space and food/beverages provided!

At night there are more than a few options of areas depending on what you're looking for. Generally, they're all quite close (5-10 minute Uber).

Dirty 6th - Everyone should see it at least one Thursday-Sat night. It lives up to its name of being quite dirty but you probably want to see it just to tell the story.

Rainey Street - A more adult, cleaner version of Dirty 6th, go here if you must but it’s for the tourists.

Clive bar

East Austin - This is a cleaner, safer version of Brooklyn 15 years ago.

Floppy Disk Repair Co.

South Austin - This is kind of broken into two areas of South Lamar and SouthCongress/South 1st St.
