  • One of the biggest draws of the annual South By Southwest festival in Austin, Texas, are the parties, lounges and social gatherings held on each of the event's 9 days. Many of these parties are official events listed on the schedule, while other "side parties" are sponsored by individuals, blogs, companies or private organizations.
