Hot Summer Nights is back for another year to curate a three-day weekend filled with admission-free concerts for fans, taking place across ten iconic live music venues housed within the RRCD and Downtown Austin. Founded in 2017 as the RRCD’s first official district-wide event, Hot Summer Nights was originally created in an effort to provide additional revenue to district members, as well as local musicians and staff during the traditionally slower summer months.
As a compliment to the District’s other annual festival held each January just after the New Year – Free Week – Hot Summer Nights has grown into one of the most popular summer events in the “Live Music Capital of the World”, while playing host to tens of thousands of attendees and ultimately providing a significant and positive economic impact in Austin music, service, and hospitality communities.
The 2025 event will feature 150+ local artists including The Tiarras, Farmer's Wife, Maya Sampleton, Smooth Nature, Shooks, Lauren Lakis and more! To view the full lineup check out the Hot Summer Nights Website. To learn more about this year's festival check out our Hot Summer Nights blog.
