Texas Athletics is proud to announce 'Made in Austin Weekend' to be held April 12-14 on The University of Texas campus. Events feature a variety of fan experiences that celebrates what makes Austin so unique: live music, specialty food and beverage offerings, dog-friendly activities, and -- most importantly -- Texas Football and Baseball!

Events are centered around the annual Texas Football Orange-White Game, presented by Living Spaces, on Saturday, April 13 at 6:30 p.m. in Darrell K Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium. The spring game, televised on Longhorn Network, is the first glimpse for Longhorns fans to see the defending Allstate Sugar Bowl Champions in action before the 2019 season opener against Louisiana Tech on Saturday, Aug. 31.

Bevo Blvd., the pregame street party on San Jacinto Blvd., makes its Spring Game debut. Fan activities get started at 3 p.m. and feature all of the elements Texas fans embraced during the 2018 regular season including the Bevo XV Parade presented by Texas Farm Bureau Insurance, and the Stadium Stampede.

Longhorn City Limits, the latest tradition in the "Live Music Capital of the World," returns to the LBJ Lawn (northeast corner of the stadium) on gameday. Featuring FREE pre- and postgame concerts, LCL promises to be a can't-miss event for live music fans on April 13.

Texas Baseball, led by third-year head coach David Pierce, looks to continue to build off their 2018 Big 12 Championship and College World Series run as they host K-State in an important three-game conference series.

Many exciting Made in Austin Weekend announcements are coming over the next month including Bevo Blvd. enhancements, Longhorn City Limits artists announcements, and a very special theme day at Texas Baseball on Sunday, April 14!

It would be really cool if for once Texas didn't get the "they don't care about football like tOSU and Bama" tag from other schools' staffs because no one shows up to the spring game. I like this whole "coming off a successful season" thing, we should do it more often.

I like the idea Chris, but how exactly are that many hundreds of people gonna make it all the way up there in stampede fashion using 2 slow elevators?
