Music in the Garden

Stop by Zilker Botanical Garden on select Thursday evenings this summer for Music in the Garden, an annual outdoor summer event. Guests can enjoy live music performed in the shaded Rose Garden from 5:30pm to 7:30pm, grab a burger from Downtown Burgers, and sip on a crisp beer or hop water from Austin Beerworks. The lineup includes a variety of local artists ranging from Lew Apollo to Aubrey Hays. Guests are encouraged to bring a blanket or chair to sit back, relax, and enjoy an evening of tunes and good times. Get outdoors this summer and enjoy live music right in Zilker’s backyard! 

FREE beer and hop water available while supplies last! Must be 21+ to consume alcohol.
