Free Week returns Jan. 9–10 with two nights of admission-free live music across Austin’s Red River Cultural District. The music festival will feature more than 80 local and emerging artists performing at 14 downtown venues, all within walking distance. Launched in 2003 to combat the post-holiday concert lull, the low-key showcase has grown into a multi-venue staple, with participating venues also hosting food vendors and offering event-week discounts.
