This Weekend in Austin, Texas — August 14–16, 2026
Austin doesn't do quiet weekends, and this one is no exception. Between a legendary co-headlining concert, an immersive art exhibit, a free racing fanfest, a rivalry soccer match, and a hands-on pottery class, there's a version of this weekend for whoever you're bringing along.

Sip & Sculpt Pottery Workshop
Sunday, August 16th | 1:00 PM – 3:00 PM
Get creative at Stargazer's signature pottery workshop! Enjoy your favorite drink while you shape clay into a smiley pot, vase, trinket dish, or anything else you dream up. Learn hand-building basics in a fun, relaxed setting that is perfect for a group of friends or a solo creative session.
We work with buyers and sellers across Westlake, Tarrytown, Rollingwood, Pemberton Heights, and Spanish Oaks, and one of the most common questions we get from people relocating to Austin is some version of: "What's it actually like to live there?" Our answer is always the same, it's weekends like this one. It's Lionel Richie under the lights on Friday, a Banksy exhibit and a racing fanfest on Saturday, a rivalry match under the stadium lights that same night, and clay on your hands come Sunday afternoon. Austin rewards the people who show up for it. We hope you get out there this weekend.
