Hot Summer Nights is an annual community arts and music festival presented by the Red River Cultural District. It runs for three days, from July 16 to July 18, across nearly a dozen iconic live music venues within the district. The festival puts on hundreds of admission-free performances, pairing established touring acts with up-and-coming local Austin and Texas artists. The district frames the event as support for the area's independently owned venues and the local workers who run them.
