We’ve searched out the best events in and around the Lake Travis area … so you don’t have to.
Spend your weekend relaxing around the lake, listening to live music, attending a crawfish boil, or checking out The Addams Family at TexARTS.
Head to the Hill Country for a bluebonnet festival in Burnet or BBQ in Wimberley. Or get to the big city for a huge outdoor car show and live music festival.
There’s more and you’ll find it all right here in the Lake Travis Lifestyle weekend roundup for April 8-10, 2016.
