Piknic Électronik Austin is back for another year of electronic music, local food, and family-friendly activities at a unique picnic in the park atmosphere at Auditorium Shores on Oct. 26 and Oct. 27.

Having originated in Montreal more than 15 years ago, Piknic Électronik is a favorite annual cultural event that has since expanded internationally to Melbourne and Santiago — and Austin!

Piknic Électronik features stages overlooking Lady Bird Lake, with a mix of techno, house and disco. So yes, get ready to dance! Additionally, you can count on bringing the kids to check out the Petit Piknic area where families are invited to have some joyful musical experiences with fun activities for the tiny dancers. There is even a petit pumpkin patch, provided by Central Market. Plus, take note that children 10 and under are free to attend with a ticketed adult.

No Austin festival is complete without great food and drink options, of course, and this is a picnic after all! You can pre-order a selection of picnic favorites from Central Market, or find local food trucks such as Tamale Addiction, The Mighty Cone and more.

One-day tickets are only $15, which you can purchase online here. Take note that when ordering you can opt to purchase a picnic from Central Market and even a custom picnic blanket, too.
