Austin's Spring Fling: Top Picks for the Season

Let’s be real—spring showed up in Austin weeks ago! But even with the early sunshine and warm weather, we’re officially kicking off the season with some of our favorite spring essentials.

1. PATIO DRINKS | When the sun’s out, you can bet we are too. Whether you’re sipping a cocktail or a mocktail, finding the perfect patio or rooftop spot is where we’ll be hanging out all season long.

3. PICNICS AT ZILKER PARK | Grab your blanket, your pup, a football, or a frisbee, and head to Zilker Park! Enjoy this close-to-downtown spot before the summer heat makes it too hot to hang.

4. RELAXING STAYCATION | Treat yourself to a little privacy right in the heart of Austin at Hotel Saint Cecilia. Cool off with a dip in the pool, kick back, and let yourself relax—you’ll feel like you’re miles away without ever leaving the city.
