What

On December 6th, the public is invited to take part in The Driskill’s annual lighting of The Driskill’s 16-foot Douglas fir Christmas tree. Held in partnership with Austin American-Statesman’s Season for Caring fund, this community event is free to the public. Proceeds generated are donated to Season for Caring and used to support Austin families in receiving health care, education, household utilities and so much more. This tradition has celebrated the unofficial start of the holiday season for decades, offering guests the chance to revel in the festive tunes of the Chalumeau Clarinet Quartet, raise a glass for a Champagne toast and experience a special visit from St. Nick. 

Austin’s beloved Driskill Hotel will bring new west grandeur to the 2024 holiday season, keeping long-standing traditions alive while creating a festive ambiance full of Texas charm. Locals can expect the property – from the famous Driskill Bar to the grand lobby – to be decked out with festive decor and buzzing with infectious Driskill holiday energy.
