Barton Fest

Barton Fest is set to turn Omni Barton Creek Resort & Spa into a lively Hill Country celebration on Sunday, May 24, 2026, from 5:00 PM to 8:00 PM. This complimentary, public event brings together the best of Austin’s warm-weather spirit: live music, local flavors, artisan shopping, and family-friendly activities in one scenic resort setting.

Expect an easygoing afternoon that feels part festival, part summer kickoff, and part neighborhood market. The spotlight entertainment features Dallas singer-songwriter Remy Reilly, sponsored by Big Hat Spirits, bringing a fresh soundtrack to the evening while guests sip, sample, and stroll.

• Live music all evening with a strong Texas summer vibe
• Gourmet bites from Omni Barton Creek’s distinct restaurants
• Sips from local breweries, distilleries, and wineries
• Artisan goods and market finds from local vendors
• Barton’s Kid Zone with animal encounters, balloon twisters, and face painting
• Scenic Hill Country views and plenty of relaxed resort charm

The market experience is curated in partnership with Anne Twomey and Cristi Petti, adding a thoughtful local touch to the vendor lineup and making this more than just a casual gathering. It’s a great chance to support community makers while discovering new favorites.

Admission is complimentary and open to the public, with food and drink tickets sold separately. One parking pass per vehicle is required for entry, so plan accordingly if you’re heading in with friends or family.

For those who want to stretch the fun into a true getaway, Omni Barton Creek is also offering a tempting stay package: 15% off 2 nights or 20% off 3 or more nights. Add a resort stay, soak up the summer vibe, and make Barton Fest the start of a full weekend escape.

If you’re looking for more seasonal fun, Omni Barton Creek’s Summer in the Hills lineup keeps the good times rolling all summer long.
