SXSW is the premier event for the music, film and gaming industries. It includes developers, up and coming title releases and introduction of new innovators. Each year, the hosts of SXSW provide registration information as well as trip planning tips. You will find helpful information by accessing their online site for travel discounts on air and local transportation.

Instructions

Difficulty: Easy
Step1
Check the SXSW website often for ongoing information on airline discounts (see Resources below). When you're booking your travel, the hosts of SXSW recommend buying your airline tickets early to get the best possible rate. There is also information available regarding international flights.
Step2
Locate the recommended companies for car rental on the SXSW site. The hosts have contracted with specific vendors to get special rates.
Step3
Register for the premium level attendance to receive discounts on the shuttle services contracted by SXSW organizers. It's important to register early since there is a limited number of vehicles and seats. The travel cost will vary depending on what time of day you use the shuttle. Shuttles provide transportation to and from the hotels to the convention center.
Step4
Find advance information regarding airport shuttle services on the SXSW site. Although you'll likely purchase the shuttle ticket on arrival, it will give you an idea of the cost.

Tips & Warnings

  • Write down the public transportation and cab fare information from the site so you can access this easily when you arrive.
