Our annual SXSW tradition is still going strong! Each year, the Spill the ATX team publishes a list of celebrities confirmed to attend South By Southwest and SXSW 2025 is no different.
In regards to speculation, we will publish separate posts so bookmark this page. Of course, this list will be constantly updated so stay tuned!
This list only contains CONFIRMED celebrities attending SXSW 2025.
As usual, the term “celebrity” is difficult to define. Most of the list will be comprised of actors who have started to make a name for themselves. Some musicians, athletes and comedians will make the list due to their level of awareness. If you see someone missing from the list that you feel should be included, please DM us on social.
Also, because other events coincide with South By, we are including those more known performers and guests as well.
Please keep in mind that appearances are always subject to change.
