WHAT IS AUSTIN FAN FEST ALL ABOUT ?
The Austin Fan Fest is the downtown party celebrating the Formula 1 United States Grand Prix. Downtown Austin will be transformed into the ultimate party atmosphere where fans will experience five free stages of music, four concert venues hosting major international performers, interactive F1 activities including show cars, simulators, gaming, street performances, sponsor parties, a kids zone, and so much more.
Imagine more than 100+ artists performing across nine stages, and marquee buildings such as the Bob Bullock Texas State History Museum and the Austin Convention Center being transformed into giant Ibiza style nightclubs complete with amazing décor, sound, lights, video walls, lounges, go-go dancers, and glowing bars. The result is the Austin Fan Fest playing host to party-goers from every state in the US, and travelers from more than 50 countries worldwide, all celebrating together. This is truly a world’s party, and Austin is going to show the world why it's dubbed "The Live Music Capital of the World."
