It’s daylight saving time. At 2 a.m. on Sunday, March 8, clocks will jump forward to 3 a.m., meaning we’ll lose an hour of sleep, but gain brighter evenings for the next several months. If the time change has you feeling off, here are a few ways to make the most of those longer evenings around Austin.
Take advantage of golden hour
The Capital City has a skyline worth bragging about — capture one of these local landmarks for the gram or for your phone’s background.
Reset your routine
If the lost sleep hits hard, consider an early-evening coffee run at any of our buzzing coffee shops.
Catch live music after work
With daylight stretching later, concerts and outdoor shows feel even better. Many of Austin’s venues have long setlists to amp up this spring.
Attend a local event
Every month, we update our Plan Ahead with a variety of events happening in and around Austin every single day, no matter when the sun sets.
