Going to SXSW? Here are F123’s top picks for the entire conference period.
Interactive
Fast Society House Party
Social butterfly? You’re just in time for the Fast Society Party, who is launching an app just in time for SXSW that helps you find your buds all over the city so you can meet in one place! And with Patron as a sponsor, why wouldn’t you want to meet there? And while you’re there, take a seat, F123 is providing all the furniture for the lounge area.
The Good Capitalist Party 3.12.11
We love the mission behind this party! Their tagline “Can you really do good for the world and make a profit at the same time?” is something that F123 believes in. We do our best to give back to the community that supports us, so meet the folks that make it their business to do that everyday. Literally. And the best part? No badge needed.
Film
Reel to Reality: A Lights. Camera. Help Event
Can’t wait for the official festivities to begin? Find yourself at the Reel to Reality party this Friday, 3/4 at Union Park and learn more about the Austin based non-profit that produces the world’s first ever cause driven film festival. Convio is sponsoring drink tickets, so we suggest to get their early and grab ‘em!
Music
SXSW Auditorium Shores Stage Concert Series
What’s better than free live music? Free live music with awesome bands that you actually want to see, that’s what! For three days between March 17-19, free concerts in the park with the city as its backdrop welcome the badgeless music fans. We recommend Thuesday the 17th to see The Strokes on stage at 8:00 PM and Blue October March 18th at 8:00 PM. But bands will be hitting the stage for a few hours, so check the website for showtimes, come early, bring a blanket, and enjoy an open air kind if night in Austin.
See everybody out there!
