Sponsorships
Austinist provides media sponsorship for a variety of festivals, readings, and other events throughout the year. Additionally, we organize two large annual parties: Local Music is Sexy during the fall, and Gonna Gonna Get, Get Down in mid-March. Each is a showcase of the regional and national/international bands, respectively, that we're most excited about. If you'd like to discuss partnership or sponsorship opportunities, we'd love to hear from you.
