Welcome to the Texas Whiskey Festival, where the heart of Texas meets the art of whiskey. Mark your calendar for April 12, 2025, and join us just outside Austin at the historic Star Hill Ranch, near the Hill Country Galleria. Rain or shine, this is your chance to explore the bold flavors of Texas, surrounded by the rugged beauty of the Hill Country and the vibrant energy of whiskey enthusiasts from across the nation.
Whiskey is more than a drink; it’s a celebration. A glass raised to life’s milestones, shared over stories and laughter. It’s character, each bottle a reflection of the place it’s from, the hands that crafted it, and the time it’s spent building its story. Whiskey is magic—turning the ordinary into the extraordinary, carrying the mystery of tradition and the alchemy of time in every sip.
And Texas whiskey? It’s as bold and diverse as the Lone Star State itself. From the rugged Hill Country to the bustling streets of Dallas and Houston, each sip is a story of local pride and craftsmanship. Texas whiskey embodies the spirit of the state—big, proud, and unapologetically unique.
At the Texas Whiskey Festival, you’ll experience this spirit firsthand. Taste limited-edition releases and rare expressions. Meet the makers who pour their passion into every bottle. Learn the stories that make each whiskey special. Whether you’re a seasoned connoisseur or just beginning your whiskey journey, there’s something here for everyone.

For our out-of-state guests, this is more than a festival—it’s a Texas getaway.
