​Five Fun Free Events in Austin this Summer

Unplugged at the Grove:  This summer concert series at Shady Grove presents live music every Thursday this summer on Shady Grove’s front lawn.  For the full summer schedule, click here.
 
Deep Eddy Movie Night: Ok, this one isn’t free but it’s incredibly inexpensive and one of my personal favorites!  I remember looking forward to these summer showings as a kid and enjoying some Mangia’s pizza while I watched the flick. Texas’ oldest swimming pool screens family-friendly movies on a large screen in front of the pool Saturday nights throughout the summer.  Bring a big floatie to enjoy the show from the pool or a blanket to relax on the hillside. The movie usually starts around 8:45 pm.
