Thursday, legendary singer-songwriter Ray Wylie Hubbard plays one of the longest running free music series in Austin, KGSR’s Unplugged at the Grove at Shady Grove.

Friday, head to another Austin legend, Antone’s, to celebrate their 43rd Anniversary. Carolyn Wonderland has been said to have the “vocals of Janis (Joplin) and the guitar-slinging skills of Stevie Ray” and Jackie Venson (pictured) is an Austin guitar virtuoso who blends blues, soul, R&B and more. Doors open at 8pm and the show starts at 9pm. Tickets are $17 to $20 and can be purchased here.
Saturday, the Austin360 Amphitheater at Circuit of the Americas has alt-rock legends Weezer and the Pixies, with heirs to the throne, the Wombats, opening. Doors at 6:30pm and the RAWK starts at 7:30pm. Tickets range from $25.00 to $112.50 and can be purchased here.
Sunday, polish up your cowboy boots and two-step your way over to our neighborhood honky tonk, the White Horse, for ATX country from Roy Heinrich and the Pickups, Armadillo Road, and Silo Road. The music starts at 6:30pm.
Looking for a spectacular way to celebrate the 4th of July? Take advantage of our July 4th Package, which includes lodging for two, welcome beverages at check-in and a guided paddle trip on Lady Bird Lake on the evening of the 4th to witness the fireworks from the water!

“...Best hotel I’ve stayed at...”
“…Best hotel I’ve stayed at. Blend of modern/vintage, warm and cosy, like staying at a cool friend’s house who can tell you all the best things to do. Coffee and coffee stations = amazing. Bath products = amazing. Patio blankets = perfect touch. Handwritten note = so good. ..all the little details were thought of. All the staff were just wonderful.” -- Shelley

This weekend, the annual Republic of Texas Biker Rally rolls into Austin with lots of activities held at the Travis County Expo Center, including musical headliners ZZ Top! Single-day and multi-day passes are still available here.
One of our favorite events is the Friday-night biker parade that motors through our East Austin neighborhood and into downtown, ending at the Capitol building for a rally and all-night biker party. Grab a seat along the parade route for some fun and free entertainment!
Even if a biker rally is not your scene, there’s plenty to do in Austin this weekend.
Thursday, get your exercise on a Moonlight Margarita Run while supporting Austin’s incredible Lady Bird Lake Hike and Bike Trail. Starting at Seaholm Power Plant, this 5k supports the Trail Foundation and ends with a Tex-Mex Fiesta featuring dinner and margaritas, of course, by Maudie’s Tex Mex! The fun starts at 8pm. Registration is $45 to $120 and can be done here.
Friday, catch the R.O.T. Rally parade and then head over to 3Ten ACL Live at 8pm to pay tribute to His Purple Majesty, Prince, on what would have been his 60th Birthday. Local Austin favorites AJ Vallejo’s Perfect Nation and Dead Love Club will be performing Purple Rain in its entirety, plus all the hits! Tickets are available here and are $10-$15.
Saturday, the Austin360 Amphitheater welcomes Grammy Award-winning singer-songwriter Ray LaMontagne. Alt-country chanteuse Neko Case opens. Doors open at 6:30pm and the show is at 7:30pm. Tickets are available here and are $39.50-$89.50.
Sunday, walk just down the block to our Eastside neighbors, Stay Gold, for Brass Sabbath from 8:30 to 11:30pm with Austin’s 8-piece brass band Interrobang (pictured). There’s no better way to celebrate a Sunday than with a drink and some lively free music.
Next weekend is Father’s Day and what better way to say thanks to Dad than with a stay at the Heywood! We still have a few rooms available here, or get him a gift card so he can celebrate whenever he wants!

Saturday, it’s Queerbomb at our awesome Eastside neighbors, Fair Market.
