Hotel & Travel
No matter what you call it, Austin, Texas, is the perfect spot for Village 2008.
- “Silicon Hills”
- “Startup Hub” (Fast Company)
- “One of the hottest entrepreneurial regions in the country.” (Inc. Magazine)
- “A really cool place.” (Willie Nelson)
When it comes to describing Austin, “Deep in the heart of Texas” doesn’t mean oil wells, tumble weeds, and cattle ranches. It means high tech, high energy, and high style.
Austin is the technology center of Texas, with some of the world’s leading computer and chip manufacturers, research institutions, and pioneering startups. (Not to mention Vignette international headquarters.)
But that’s not all that keeps this city humming. Besides a thriving arts and filmmaking community, Austin boasts more music venues than most any other city in the country (thus, the live music nickname). Austin’s historic and famous 6th Street Entertainment District comprises blocks upon blocks of clubs and hot spots. It’s no wonder that Austin’s music scene and nightlife are repeatedly in the Top 5 in national surveys.
