Austin is as laid back as the Texas rivers that our downtown streets are named after, but one thing that Texans know how to do is have a good time. When it comes to hot food and cold beer, Austin is the place to be. Diversity is the word of the day every day, making it easy to find a wide variety of food, drink, people, and fun to fit whatever mood you may be in. Whether you choose to check out one of the live music venues that are everywhere you look, go clubbing to hit the dance floor, kick back at a pub, or do one of the 50,000 other things this city has to offer, get to know the lay of the land a little; pick a district, any district and you can have a great night—you just might want to know what you're getting yourself into first. Click "read more" and learn the basics of Austin's nightlife districts.
