Nothing says summer like a music festival in Texas, and Viva Big Bend has all the ingredients to make an arm-chair boot-stomper want to pull out their t-shirt, shorts, and best dance moves. It’s enough to make the Texas Hill Country jealous!

Festival-goers can mitigate one of the downsides of a multi-day festival by jumping on one of the many scheduled shuttles for this event as opposed to driving, and the festival website also lists several local accommodation options for the road-wary and weary.
Food Fare

Besides music and fun, the final ingredient to this festival is food. Attendees can choose from a variety of food items offered at various venues or off-site and in close proximity to the music. Again, please visit vivabigbend.com for more information as some of the venues won’t be serving food fare.
An All-Around Good Time!
