HONK!TX HONK!TX Festival of Community Street Bands is a FREE annual spring music festival in Austin, Texas. Inspired by the success of the original HONK!
(212)

Over twenty exciting, exuberant, and ecstatic community street bands from across Texas and North America are performing absolutely free in streets, parks, and neighborhoods throughout Austin for the 5th HONK!TX festival in March 2015. The bands range in size from four to forty members, all diverse in age, ethnicity, and musical background. They represent various performance traditions, including New Orleans second line brass, European klezmer, Balkan and Romani music, and festivals such as Mardi Gras and Brazilian Carnaval. Festival in Somerville, Massachusetts and HONK! Fest West in Seattle, Washington, HONK!TX is a non-profit and grassroots gathering of street bands that defy simple categorization. Bands will play unamplified and without built stages, breaking down any barriers between the crowd and performers. HONK!TX is made possible by the wholehearted support of neighborhood associations, local businesses, city officials, and other community members. Volunteers provide housing, transportation, and their time to help run the festival. More information is available at www.honktx.org.
