Can you buy a pass for just one day at the SXSW festival in Austin, or do they only sell weekly badges.?


Can you also buy tickets for individual shows online or do you have to get them at the door.

Unfortunately, you can no longer by individual tickets for specific shows; you have to purchase a badge.

Go to sxsw.com to register - the platinum badge ($950) gets you in to all of events, and the music badge ($600) covers all of the music venues.

It is really sad how much it has gone up - they market it to out-of-state/out-of-country tourists. When I first moved to Austin, you could pay $5 to get into any music venue (without a badge or separate lines).

The good news is that, much like ACL, many of the groups who come down for SXSW will also schedule individual gigs all around town, so you could still have the chance to catch a group you like at a non-SXSW event.

Good luck!

You must have a pass and yes you can by one day passes.

What Poopie said...have fun! It's a madhouse during SXSW!
