Fun in Central Texas

We’re always talking about the automotive industry, but today we’ve decided to stop and take a break, as in Spring Break, and talk about what the beautiful city of Austin has to offer this next week or so.

This is far and away the busiest time of the year as far as entertainment is concerned in the Capital City and your choices are wide and varied.

If it’s music you’re looking for, you have plenty of choices. First, there’s the obvious with the South By Southwest Festival in town. We love that there are so many different types of music to choose from including reggae to hard rock to grunge. But SXSW isn’t your only option when it comes to listening to quality music acts.

The Star of Texas Fair and Rodeo opens this weekend as well and there will be lots of great entertainers over the course of the next few weeks including Dierks Bentley, Eli Young, Kevin Fowler, LeeAnn Rimes, and Ronnie Milsap for the country music listeners as well as Big Time Rush, Joan Jett and the Blackhearts, and Rick Springfield.

And of course, this next week we understand a lot of folks won’t even be in town to enjoy SXSW or the rodeo as they’re heading out of town for Spring Break in one of their great Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep or Ram vehicles to destinations far and wide.

Regardless of whether you’re staying in town or traveling on the road this next week, Cecil Atkission in Burnet hopes you have a fun and safe Spring Break!
