SXSW EDU 2025 will largely take place at the Austin Convention Center and the Hilton Austin Downtown, with additional events scheduled at walkable venues.
SXSW EDU Housing & Travel partners with the best hotels in the Downtown Austin area, so registrants have exclusive access to the lowest rates. Our hotel inventory can be accessed after registration, through the custom booking link provided via email or through your SXSW Cart.
Book flights early at the best available rates to save — you have much more important things to spend your money on, like tacos and barbecue.
Once you arrive in Austin, don’t wait around for a ride at the airport. After you book your flight, switch over to the car hire tab in the travel tool and have a ride waiting for you when you fly in.
