Check out our October agenda from our favorite local insiders.
Austin City Limits Music Festival
“Austin City Limits Music Festival, Austin’s largest celebration of music that brings people from all over the country together, is back again with more than 140 musical acts on eight stages, all spread out over two weekends. Go for the music, but stay for the food. I can’t wait to stuff my face with Micklethwait, Peli Peli, East Side King and Chi’Lantro’s kimchee fries.”
Oct. 6 through 8 and 13 through 15, times vary | Zilker Park, 2100 Barton Springs Road aclfestival.com | One-day tickets are $100. Jane Ko, @atasteofkoko
Fifth Annual Banger’s Oktoberfest
“Nothing says fall like Oktoberfest. Banger’s will have a special Oktoberfest menu, live music, Oktoberfest games with awesome prizes and special featured beers. They tap a free ferkin (a type of keg equivalent to 72 pints) once a day to start off the party and, of course, their staff dresses the part. It’s a fall fest that needs to be on your calendar!”
The AIA Homes Tour
“The AIA Homes Tour is the architect-association home tour where the best home designers, builders and landscapers in Austin are showcased. It’s a great place for a designer or anyone interested in homes to be inspired.”

Hey Sugar! Austin Dessert Festival
“The truth is we don’t need much more convincing than the af rmation that chocolate will be in attendance at Austin’s rst dessert festival, Hey Sugar!, but it helps to know macarons, ice cream, cupcakes, cookies and pies also made the VIP list. Mark this as your cheat day and let your sweet tooth reign supreme as you sample an array of sugary concoctions from Austin’s most talented bakers. Pro tip: Don’t forget to snap a few pics to make your Instagram fans envious.” – April Cumming
