Sound & Cinema

On Wednesday during the summer, Alamo Drafthouse and Do512 host an outdoor film screening accompanied by live music and food trucks on the lawn a the Long Center’s City Terrace, with the perfect view of the sun setting on the downtown skyline behind the stage.

Bands will perform a tribute to the movie, followed by the film screening on The Alamo’s giant inflatable outdoor screen.

The Food Trailers will be open by 6:30 pm, and the sunset concerts will begin at 7:30 pm each evening. The movie will immediately follow (around 8:30 pm or right after sunset).

Check out Do512 for more info.

Whiskey & BBQ Slider Happy Hour

  • $5 Brisket Sliders (They also offer pulled pork but I recommend brisket)

Pictured below is the Glenfiddich 12 yr and the Holy Trinity (Brisket, Sausage, Pork Ribs). I was a little hungry.

Golf like you’re in Austin

Two BYOB golfing options in Central Austin and they are across the street from each other!?!! Butler Park Pitch and Putt is always BYOB and always a lot of fun/dangerous. It’s a tiny hidden golf course right off Barton springs and Lamar. Fore! Peter Pan mini golf is across the street – BYOB starts at dusk. Peter has never looked so fabulous.

If it’s a special occasion, call ahead and ask them to put your name on the sign.
