Spending a weekend in Austin on a quick getaway is a great way to get to know the Texas capital. Get ready to rock in the city that’s known as the Live Music Capital of the World and one of the best cities in the US!

Two days in Austin is just enough to check out some of the sights and enjoy the great outdoors by day. Come nightfall, it’s time to dive into the city’s famous culinary and live music scenes.

It’s definitely one of my favorite cities I’ve visited in the US and I’ve been all over the place! A city with a love for live music, tacos, and craft beer is basically my dream come true.

The Perfect 2 Day Itinerary for a Weekend in Austin

While Austin is the state capital, it’s actually only the 4th biggest city in Texas. The fact that it’s not a huge city makes it easy to cover a lot of ground with just a weekend in Austin.

In keeping with the city’s unofficial slogan “Keep Austin Weird,” I also encourage you to improvise a bit with this Austin 2-day itinerary.

Hear some funky music from a bar? Pop in to check the band out. Smell something delicious? Wander over to that food truck. Meet some cool locals? See where they like to hang out.
