The 2024 Front Festival will take over iconic venues later this month

Put on by nonprofit Future Front Texas, the festival celebrates women and LGBTQ+ makers in Texas with markets, concerts, screenings, and pool parties.

A large outdoor gathering is shown with people sitting on blankets and low chairs, facing a large projection screen displaying the words "Front Festival." The event takes place at night under tall trees, with the screen and a speaker illuminated by lights. The atmosphere is relaxed and communal, as attendees enjoy the event in a natural, open-air setting.

Get ready for four days of local events celebrating women and LGBTQ+ creatives in Austin and Texas.
