HILL COUNTRY GALLERIA TO HOST PECAN STREET FESTIVAL MAY 3 - 4, 2025
–Celebrating 50 Years of the Iconic Festival in a New Family-Friendly Location–
BEE CAVE, TEXAS (March 25, 2025) - Hill Country Galleria and the iconic Pecan Street Festival are thrilled to announce their exciting partnership in celebration of the 50th anniversary of the beloved local festival. Austin’s longest-running art and music festival will take place at Hill Country Galleria this spring, running from Saturday, May 3rd, through Sunday, May 4th. The new location offers a welcoming, family-friendly atmosphere with ample free parking, making it easily accessible for all guests.
After 50 years, the festival has decided to seek out more space that will allow the successful street fest to flourish as Austin’s population quickly expands. The historic Pecan Street Festival is one of the last-standing street festivals in Austin and continues to thrive and grow while other street fests have been unable to keep up with the city’s changing permitting rules and regulations.
"We are excited to welcome the Pecan Street Festival to Hill Country Galleria for its milestone 50th anniversary,” said Alora Hess, Marketing Manager at Hill Country Galleria. “We know how special this event is to the Austin community, and our goal is to enhance the festival experience by offering plentiful space, convenient amenities, and a welcoming environment that celebrates the incredible local talent that makes the Pecan Street Festival so special.”
As Austin continues to grow, the team behind the Pecan Street Festival wants to ensure the prosperity of the iconic Austin event that so many community members hold dear to their hearts. This milestone sets up the festival for continued success and accessibility to younger and older citizens of Austin. The venue change signifies a renewed commitment to supporting Austin’s artists, musicians and local businesses, and looks forward to another 50 years of bringing the community together.
Guests can enjoy one of Austin’s longest-running street festivals with an array of local vendors and artists, kids' rides and a petting zoo. Stay tuned for the full music and vendor lineup coming soon.
