It was also centrally located in the middle of many Austin downtown hotels. We stayed at the Fairmont, so there was a walkway connecting us to the convention center. Very convenient with the stroller on a chilly fall day. I think other hotels, such as the Hilton, might have similar connection between hotel and convention center. Plenty of escalators and elevators, we had no problem finding the correct room. There are also various gift shops and cafes scattered around the center. Overall a good venue for a conference.

SXSW has been held at the Austin Convention Center since its creation in the 1990s. I'd like to…read morethank the staff for keeping this institution so kempt, as you couldn't even tell it's over 3 decades old with how clean it is. The convention center is located in a prime location that's accessible and walkable for all. Though the convention center tries its best to be easily navigational, some of the smaller room signs could be more noticeable. Would suggest putting on comfortable shoes at the Austin Convention Center, as it has two wings and three floors. In order to get to the other side, you'll have to walk all the way from point A to point B.

This is my first time coming here. I have parked my car in the attached parking garage. I believe…read moreit's $12.00 to park. There was a police officer guiding the cars between 2 lanes. The line did move quickly. I came here today because they were having an import car show. I wasn't sure what to expect. I haven't been to a car show in a long time. The last really awesome show I went to was San Diego, and it was massive! This car show was much much smaller. But doesn't mean it was lacking. Most cars were Supra's, which are sexy, no question about it. Type R, couple BMW, Mustang, Volkswagen, even Lexus. Obvious these owners put a lot of love in their cars. The paint, the upgrades, the engines, the stereo system, and all the extra bells and whistles with interior lights, racing seats, and exhaust and rims. If you don't think cars have a personality, you wouldn't understand this car show. The line to get in was extremely long. But moved pretty quickly. I had my ticket on my phone in an email. But I also printed it out just incase. I checked in and got a wrist band. Once inside, you can roam around freely. They do have bathrooms inside and some food. I saw people walking around with popcorn and big warmed pretzels. Also you can buy drinks. And I think I saw liquor too. I wasn't sure where this center was, but if you're trying to picture where it is, it's across for Terry Blacks BBQ.

It has been a while since I visited Palmer Events Center on Barton Springs Road. Yesterday I had…read morean all day conference at the Palmer Events Center. It is surprising large, aesthetically pleasing space. One of the first things that strikes you is the size breath and depth of square footage. Extremely high ceilings makes the space look even larger. The projection monitors were large and easy to see, which made you felt like there was no bad viewing vantage point. In addition, our conference received flat rate parking of $12, which was excellent. In so garages, you can easily pay $25 upwards. Also, we used their concessions for breakfast and lunch. Having concessions near our meeting hall was super convenient. Surprisingly, concession items were reasonably priced and tasted very good.

Kudos to Roland and his team.

All I can say is WOW! I ordered a chefs salad, and was blown away. It's a huge bowl of salad. I…read morewould say shareable. Very fresh lettuce. Romaine and arugula. Grape tomatoes. Cucumbers, ham, turkey cubes. Shredded cheese, and croutons. I ordered the dressing to be on the side. Absolutely the most fabulous salad I've had in a very long time. The dinning area is very clean. I did go at lunch time, so there was a bit of a crowd, but there are a few tables off to the right where it was a little quieter. There is also seating outside, and I believe that it's okay for dogs to dine there as well. For sure a great place to have lunch. They do cater, and I can see how they would be great for parties, or business gatherings. This location is in a very business shopping center. With stores like Trader Joe's, j.jill. Sephora. And a Starbucks. There is a large parking lot, but this is a busy strip mall center.

The performances captured the vulnerability and loneliness at the heart of the show. The themes of connection, mental health, and the need to be seen feel incredibly relevant. It's not always an easy watch, but it's meaningful and worth it. I felt every character and it truly had me breaking into tears. Getting tickets at "will call" was easy. The Libby had lots of seating. Tables and chairs, and small lounge couches. There was a young women singing on a small stage with a guitar. Played a few songs that we all knew. And charmed us with her own original song. Beautiful voice. There is a small bar in the back. I did get a small cocktail and a box of popcorn. The auditorium room had wonderful seats. It looks like row K is the best seat because they have like a small bar like table in front of you. The chairs don't have cupholders. So you end up having to hold everything or place on the floor. No one obstruct your view from the stage. Every seat is a good seat. Parking is easy. I paid $15.00 and found parking easily. I was also a little early for the show. I just started following ZACH on IG to see up coming shows. If you want to see this show, they did say they are extending to May. I hope you come see the show and support the local theater.

I recently attended the play "Come From Away" at the Zachary Scott theater and was pleasantly…read moresurprised. I went in, knowing nothing about the production and gained lots of knowledge as to the events behind it. On September 11, 2001, Gander International Airport in Newfoundland, Canada took in 38 commercial flights numbering almost 7000 passengers in response to the 911 bombings & the US closing its airspace. The a tiny town of Gander welcomed them with open arms and fed them, provided housing and clothes over the course of 4 days. It's a heartwarming story and leaves hope for the best of humanity and connection. The cast and protection were great. Adding to that is Celtic bluegrass music and an infectious enthusiasm. I highly recommend it. Running through September 27th. 1 hour 40 minute production, no intermission.

Just had a negative experience here. I signed up for a football watch party through Eventbrite…read more They had several events like this before where I could attend without being a UT club member. I got 3 tickets and when I arrived I was told that the cost was $35 a person for the buffet to be allowed entry even though there was no mention of this in the event info. This was not communicated on the event page and my guests were not interested in eating. I drove in traffic 30 minutes to get there and then walked over a mile to avoid paying for parking only to be turned away. Even asked if we could just stay and watch the game based on the miscommunication and was told no. I support the UT club all the time for their pep rallies and am disappointed in how this was handled. Seems like there could have been an exception made based on the miscommunication. It was an embarrassment for my guests and didn't reflect well on the club. I was informed that the Club had no control over the info put on Eventbrite and the only accommodation made was a free lunch voucher which does not address the impact to my self or guests for watching the game. For full disclosure, attaching the link to the event and for the verbiage. https://www.eventbrite.com/e/ut-club-watch-party-texas-vs-kentucky-tickets-1797142815539?utm_experiment=test_share_listing&aff=ebdsshios&sg=a809b3f26d39f787453f24c37cd1e8699bda95ef3a3b044426c8024546acbf53340bd0e59d3601341612d45b3e4e882f4575187876804fd0f24d03ca498b2dc38d2c44a7a6fb9c2597777c5c

Sarah was rude, dismissive, and seemed like she did not care about helping me or even doing the basic part of her job--returning important calls.

I would not recommend this club to anyone. Terrible Service!

Perfect venue for our wedding reception!…read more We had a cocktail style wedding reception (i.e. not much seating/no full meal) and The Sunset Room was the perfect venue! It looked great with really no decor added, held over 200 guests without crowding, and the staff (including bartenders) were great! The owner made it easy for us to coordinate details and because they manage their own security and staffing for the bar, it saved us a lot of coordination. The price point is also incredibly reasonable. We are so glad we chose The Sunset Room!
