Austin Trail of Lights 2022 Guide – Tickets, Parking, Pro Tips & more!

December 7, 2022 by Bill Tucker Leave a Comment

Austin Trail of Lights 2022 – Santasaurus makes a triumphant return | Image credit: Bill Tucker

The Trail of Lights holds a special place in my heart. In 2014, during a rare moment of quiet on the trail, I asked my wife to marry me under a light-drenched tree. Cliché, perhaps, but an amazing moment nonetheless. Every year since, we walk the trail, find our tree, and smile.

When COVID hit in 2020, Trail of Lights went vehicular out of necessity. What normally takes an hour to walk was distilled into a 15-minute drive through Zilker. All the hallmarks were there and it was a lovely experience, but it just didn’t ring the same. It was as good as anybody could reasonably expect, but it still felt off.

Not anymore. This year, the drive is once again a walk and I couldn’t be happier. And after taking a spin around the trail with my wife and three kids in tow, I can personally confirm what everyone is secretly hoping: the Trail of Lights is back and better than ever.

Austin Trail of Lights 2022 – The Zilker tree and other favorites make a triumphant return!

If you’ve traveled the trail in the past, you’ll be happy to learn all your favorites are still in attendance. From the towering Santa-saurus to the Jackalope to the random displays of Spongebob, cacti, and Disney properties, the weirdness is still here after all these years. Same for the five gorgeous light canopies and the world-famous Zilker Tree. Watching my son and daughter take their first spin underneath this light-covered moon tower was an incredible moment.

And if 2 million lights, 90-holiday trees, and 70 unique displays aren’t enough, kids and adults can ride the massive Ferris wheel and the classic carousel, both in the new Zilker Square section. The Square is also home to the Zilker Stage where attendees can take a break from walking and enjoy local music. Artists include Austinot favorites like Croy and the Boys (12/8), Tomar and the FCs (12/17), Ley Line (12/18), Los Coast (12/22), and the Peterson Brothers (12/23).

While the trail is lovely for adults, it’s pure magic for kids. To give them a break from the barrage of lights, be sure to swing by many of the off-trail attractions. I highly recommend the Santa’s Workshop for a chance to win toys, the H-E-B Read 3 Train, and the toasty Yule Log. And for eating and drinks, there are three designated areas that offer everything you need from lite bites for the kiddies and alcoholic beverages for mom and dad.

Pro tips to enjoy the Austin Trail of Lights 2022 – Tickets, Parking, and more!

Thoughtfully designed to be as straightforward as possible, navigating the Trail of Lights is simple. With three kids and 2 parents, it took us 90 minutes to get from entrance to exit. This included snacks/water, a wait for the carousel, and dozens of “get over here!” shouts as if I was Scorpion from Mortal Kombat. Entrance for the preview party was a breeze, but expect long lines as we get closer to the 25th.

Austin Trail of Lights 2022 Dates

Austin Trail of Lights for 2022 will open on Thursday the 8th of December and the closing night will be on Friday the 23rd of December. There are various themed nights planned for 2022 including UT Night, Heroes Night, Movie Night, and Pride Night. For more details check out their calendar.

Trail of Lights Austin 2022 – Tickets

Ticketing is straightforward as well. There are three ticket types depending on the day:

  • General Admission: GA runs from free to $5 depending on the night. That’s right – free! Children 11 and under are always free with a ticketed adult for the $5 evenings. With this tier, you get admission to the park and free photos with Santa. Doors open at 7:00 PM most nights.
  • ZIP passes: Remember what I said about lines? This is how you can reduce them. ZIP passes cost between $20 and $25 per person depending on the day. Kids 5 and under get a free ZIP pass with a ticketed ZIP adult. This tier gets you:
    • 6:00 PM Early access with a special entrance.
    • Access to the ZIP Lounge Area located in Candy Cane Lane. Close to the entrance, this is a great place to grab complimentary holiday cookies, cocoa, force the kids to use the heated bathroom, and snag an adult beverage.
  • Platinum Passes: Ranging anywhere from $90 to $320 a person depending on the size of your group, this level gets you:
    • Valet parking for one vehicle.
    • Exclusive concierge on site.
    • 6:00 PM early entry.
    • Golf cart shuttle access to the Trailhead.
    • Access to a private lounge.
    • One drink and one ride ticket per person.

Austin Trail of Lights 2022 – Transportation, Parking

Parking is another thing you must be made aware of. If you can avoid it, do so. Rideshare will be your best friend as there’s a designated drop-off and pickup area close to the park. And like anything else in Austin, biking and scooting are wonderful ways of getting to the event. But I get it. I have a mini-van. Sometimes, kids need to be carted and driving is a must. Close in parking will run you $15 – $25 depending on the night and is dang near required. These will sell out, so grab them early.

Another option is the Trail of Lights shuttle. Available only on select days, this convenient option picks up from Republic Square Park and the Toney Burger Event Center. These shuttle tickets include your general admission, infants ride free.

MORE PRO-TIPS:

  • The Zilker Tree is free to everyone and does not require a ticket. Because spinning under the tree should be free to all Austinites.
  • If you’re going General Admission on a free night, you do not need a ticket for entry. Just show up!
  • Water is available at any info booth scattered around the trail for a suggested donation of $2.
  • Trail of Lights is open from 12/8 – 12/23, closed on Mondays.
  • Photos with Santa are free and are taken at “Santa’s House” in the North Pole section.
  • If you need to choose between carousel and Ferris wheel, do the wheel. The view is spectacular.
  • Special nights include UT Night (12/11), Heroes Night (12/13), Movie Night (12/15), Pride Night (12/21), and Closing Night (12/23).

Trail of Lights – A Magical Austin Tradition

Looking at the Trail of Lights through the eyes of a child. (credit: Bill Tucker)

Ever since moving to Austin in 2013, the Trail of Lights became a holiday tradition. Strolling Zilker Park, surrounded by a galaxy twinkling lights, is a December highlight. In a city where few things feel unique anymore, the trail maintains its sense of weird while continuing to change and grow with the times. It’s a charming and enchanting throwback to the days when things were a touch simpler.

And this year, experiencing it with two six-year-olds and a two-year-old for the first time was special. My son spun under the Zilker Tree for the first time. My daughter shouted “what’s that!” at every illuminated tree, character, and display we walked past. And yes, my wife visited our spot for the first time in three years and shared a moment. If you’ve never been to the Trail of Lights, make 2022 your year to check that box on your ATX bucket list. Good holiday vibes are guaranteed!

Ever since Black Fret’s inaugural year in 2013, they’ve been supporting the Austin music community in unique and special ways. And the yearly Black Ball, a concert celebration of all things ATX music, is the culmination of a years worth of sounds, stages, and stunning philanthropy. We eagerly await the Black Fret Black Ball every year and hope you consider joining this incredible collective of music lovers as they give money and change lives.

What is Black Fret and the Black Ball?

Started by Matt Ott and Colin Kendrick in 2013, Black Fret’s mission is to support the Austin music community through member-supported grants. Much like an orchestra or theater, members pay yearly dues which are in turn given to the artists. In return for their dues, members are treated to exclusive listening sessions in unique, intimate venues around town. All the artists playing these shows are 100% local and fairly paid.

With that money, Black Fret provides grants to a set number of artists as voted by the members. Every year, the number of members and grants increases. But Black Fret doesn’t cut a check and leaves them hanging. They allocate the funds as needed for studio time, equipment needs, promotion, etc. The organization also provides counseling and membership from an industry leader on how best to spend that money.

This year, Black Fret will award $250,000 in grants to member-selected Austin artists at the annual Black Ball. The event feels like a “concert mix tape”. The Moody stage is split into two sections, each artist gets a side. While artist A is performing, the opposite side of the stage is being set up for Artist B. And back and forth it goes. It’s extraordinary to watch as it always goes without a hitch. 18 of the 20 nominated artists will perform at the event making the Black Ball an incredible showcase of the best of Austin music.

And the Winners of Austin Black Fret Black Ball 2022 Are…

Austin Black Fret Black Ball 2022

On Saturday, December 3rd, the following artists will receive a combined $250,000 to be used to enhance and grow their music careers:

  • Abhi the Nomad
  • Annabelle Chairlegs
  • Aubrey Hays
  • Blackillac

Black Ball 2022 takes place on Saturday, December 3rd at the Moody Theater, doors at 6:00 for members. Black Ball is a private event for members, guests, sponsors, and former winners. But if you’re dying to attend, there’s an easy way: become a member! Membership tiers can be found at blackfret.org/join and will grant you instant access to the Ball. Not only do gain access to an incredible evening of music, but your social calendar will also be full for the coming year. I’ve been attending Black Fret events and showcases for years and some of my most treasured ATX music experiences came from those performances.

Whether you sign up as a member or donate to the cause (http://blackfret.org/donate), you’re doing an immeasurable service to the Austin music community and positively impacting the careers of dozens of artists. You can’t call Austin the “Live Music Capital of the World” without a vibrant ecosystem to support that claim and organizations like Black Fret are doing what they can to keep the beat bumping in the ATX.

And in the end, Black Ball is a party. A homecoming where music lovers and artists combine to celebrate an amazing year of creativity, positivity, and musical magic. It’s one of my personal highlights of the year and I hope it becomes one of yours as well.

Ski Boat Rental Lake Travis

Thanks to the popularity of water sports on Lake Travis, a wake boat is another commonly booked vessel on Lake Travis. Sometimes they are called ski boats, and they are great power boats with an inboard propulsion motor that creates the perfect waves for water sports like wakeboarding and surfing.

On average, powerboat rentals on Lake Travis range from $200-400/hour, which might sound a bit pricey, but when you consider how you can split within your group, it starts to look surprisingly affordable!

House Boat Rental Lake Travis

Pace Bend Park

Pace Bend Park – a popular spot for boaters to venture – overlooks Lake Travis and offers great camping and cliff-jumping opportunities. This park has two main boat ramps — an excellent area for swimming and fishing off your boat.

Make sure you bring cash for the entrance fee if you’re launching your boat from here.

Hippie Hollow Beach

Best known for being the only recognized clothing-optional beach in Texas, Hippie Hollow is an adults-only hangout. It’s great for sunbathing, swimming, and relaxing on your boat or shore.

Many people prefer to experience Hippie Hollow by boat since it is a rocky beach and can be tricky to walk around. Bring water shoes if you have them and plan to explore on shore.

Devil’s Cove

No boating guide to Lake Travis is complete without mentioning Devil’s Cove. This is a famous boat party cove on the lake, where dozens of boats drop anchor and tie up over holiday weekends for an all-day party and fun.

Weekend One of ACL Festival 2022 in Pictures

October 10, 2022 by Bill Tucker Leave a Comment

ACL Festival 2022 Weekend One in Pictures

ACL Festival 2022 Weekend One in Pictures

Nine stages, three days and nearly 75,000 people a day pressed into the expanse of Zilker Park this past weekend. It was an awesome experience full of impressive musical discoveries, and artists who felt like old friends. Our local music community was well represented and the visiting superstars were no slouches either. Join me as I recap the last three days in pictures and prepare those attending next week for a wild ride ahead.

ACL Festival 2022 Weekend One in Pictures: Day 1 – Friday

Blanketed in cloud cover the entire day, Zilker Park felt drearier than most years (except 2019 when it was 40 degrees during weekend two). But you wouldn’t have known it from the music and the energy in the crowd. Asleep At The Wheel kicked off the festival like they’ve done for 20 years with their brand of downhome country and boogie-woogie twang. Later in the afternoon, Sarah and the Sundays brought a healthy crowd of fans to their feet with a riotous set of good-time jams and exuberant energy. It’s a blast watching bands have fun and Sarah and the Sundays were no exception.

ACL Festival 2022 Weekend One in Pictures: Day 2 – Saturday

The sun was out in full force and so was the heat. Saturday generally draws the biggest crowds and while early afternoon was laid back and chill, after 6:00 Zilker turned into an all out party. Local MC Mamaduke kicked the day off on the Barton Springs stage with wit, charm, and stage presence to spare. Oh, and she slung some incredible rhymes along with it. She felt completely at home on the big stage.

Later on in the day, Adrian Quesada of Grupo Fantasma and Black Pumas fame, blessed the giant Honda stage with his Boleros Psicodelicos. An unreal ensemble of smooth, sultry Latin all-stars, the set lulled the mid-afternoon crowd into a dream like haze. Nearly every song featured a different singer, all flown in from around the world to join the maestro for this rare live set.

ACL Festival 2022 Weekend One in Pictures: Day 3 – Sunday

Sunday featured the largest ATX artist lineup of the entire weekend. Wesley Bray and his group of gospel singers brought some Jesus into Sunday morning while Primo the Alien lit Tito’s Stage on fire with an incredible synthwave set. My photographer and I then dashed across the field to the BMI stage to watch Darkbird demolish the ever-growing crowd with a set full of old favorites and new tunes. Any opportunity to see Kelly Barnes and company rock out is one for the ages.

From there, John and I ran back across the field, back to Tito’s stage to take in a mellow set from Buffalo Nichols. After two hours of power-packed disco, pop, and rock, watching Nicols stand solo on stage and hem beauty from his guitar was a needed change of pace.

Later on the evening, Spoon performed on the Honda stage and nearly every ATX artist in attendance made their way to the set in homage to these local legends. Brett Daniels didn’t disappoint, playing choice cuts from his new album along with beloved favorites. And finally, to close out the Austin portion of Weekend 1, Eric Tessmer closed out the BMI stage with a scorching blues/rock performance full of killer solos and sonic boom.
