Austin Margarita Festival
SEP 14 | 12 PM – 8 PM |
Austin American-Statesman
You get a margarita, you get a margarita, everybody gets a margarita at the Austin Margarita Festival! Frozen, on the rocks, strawberry, lime, house tequila, top shelf, it doesn’t matter because a margarita is a margarita and if you are attending Saturday you are going to have more than 20 flavors of margaritas to choose from. Some of the featured flavors you can expect to see are Bourbon Street hurricane, coconut, cucumber apple, green apple, lots of chocolate, and peach mango just to name a few. For those of you tequila fans who enjoy it without all the added deliciousness there will be a tequila tasting tent where all of your tequila dreams will come to life. While you are enjoying your margarita tastings there will be live music all afternoon as well as other fun activities guests can participate in such as limbo and line dancing. There are only a limited number of tickets so be sure to snag yours before the festival sells out!
