The City of Austin

Plan your trip to MobiCase 2014 and experience the sights, music and culture that makes Austin the Live Music Capital of the world.

Austin, Texas is one of the fastest growing cities in the United States of America. Nestled in the heart of the Texas Hill Country, Austin has a breath-taking landscape sculpted by rolling hills to the west and blackland prairie to the east. The city is built on a unique geological formation of caves, bubbling streams, and contrasting landforms. 

This geography has shaped the city’s culture, from cattle drives along the historic Chisholm Trail to the strategic construction of Interstate 35 in 1956, to the vibrant eco-culture that Austinites enjoy today. While you are here, we invite you to enjoy the city’s natural beauty like locals do at Zilker Park, Barton Springs, the Botanical Gardens, or kayaking on Lady Bird Lake.

Deep in the heart of Texas, Austin is a vibrant cultural nexus that offers something for everyone. Consult the Austin Tourism website to find out what Austin has to offer during your stay.
