Spring is turning, and it's festival time!  (Well, it's always festival time in Central Texas, it seems, but we have more in spring and fall when the weather is delightful.) 

I thought I'd share a few of the possibilities - you could probably party all spring long without missing a beat! 

Today, I'm off with the Central Texas Food-Centrics to the Austin Chocolate Festival (yes, we DO celebrate anything and everything). 

Other options, in no particular order: 

Texas Wine & Food Festival (I highly recommend attending Sunday Fair at the end of the festival)

Eeyore's Birthday Party is a longstanding tradition - they're having the 45th this year. 

The Old Pecan Street Festival is held spring and fall - the spring edition is in May.

SXSW started yesterday and runs through the 16th. 

The Star of Texas Rodeo is going on right now.

The Old Settlers Music Festival is April 17-20.

The Austin Fine Arts Festival is April 12-13.

The Kerrville Folk Festival runs from May 22-June 8. 

The Republic of Texas Bike Rally is the end of May. 

Frederickburg holds a Crawfish Festival May 23-24.

If nothing here strikes your fancy, I'm sure there's a festival somewhere in Central Texas that will celebrate your special interest.  And if there's not, just start one!  I guarantee you people will come!
