Celebrities in Austin

Fall is almost here but things just keep heating up in Austin!

From comedians featured on television shows to a musician discovered on a reality TV competition to a Texas legend, there are all kinds of celebrities in Austin this August.

As always, determining who counts as a “celeb” is a challenge, so I’ve included anyone featured on a TV show, movie or someone who has reached a level of success in their craft that you may recognize their name or face. Be sure to click through to get more info on the celeb, venue, show time, etc.
