About This Event
Batfest — Night of the Bat is an outdoor street festival centered on the Mexican free-tailed bat colony that roosts beneath Austin’s Congress Avenue Bridge. The celebration features live music on multiple stages, arts-and-crafts and food vendors, family activities, and bat-themed programming timed around the evening bat emergence. Held on and around the bridge, the event highlights Austin’s urban wildlife and local community culture.
