Austin is a city that offers activities for a wide variety of people with any interests. It is overflowing with art, music and culture. It is blessed with great museums, historical monuments, live music, sporting events, lakes, just too much a few.

However, experiencing the eclectic mix of offerings often burns a hole in your wallet. Not everybody can afford the highest cost of a dinner downtown and up for a couple hours in a museum, or blowing their budget going to see the symphony or a football game. The glorious thing about Austin is that there is fun, unique and varied activities for all budgets. Here we provide a few options on how to enjoy Austin on the cheap in three categories: family finds, date finds, and finds for fun with friends.
