‘Tis the season-ing! Join us on the Maie Day patio for a good old fashioned crawfish boil on Sunday, April 13. A $35 ticket secures your shell-abration spot and gets you two pounds of Chef Nico’s secret recipe crawfish-and-fixins and your first drink, courtesy of our friends at Vacancy Brewing or refreshingly cold rosé patioside.

Heads up: we’re also donating 10% of sales all day to the Darryl Payne Jr. Skeleton Competition Fund. Darryl is training to qualify for the 2026 Winter Olympics as the first ever African American man from the U.S. competing in skeleton.

Save room for prime rib hash: Maie Day’s full brunch and bar menu will also be available to order, too.

Hot and spicy pinch-and-peel fun for all, guaranteed.

Austin's favorite street meets Austin's favorite party. First Thursdays at South Congress Hotel is our signature monthly event that features a live performance by an up-and-coming local act, DJs throughout our spaces, drink specials, pop-up activations and more.

This Austin tradition runs deep: on the first Thursday of every month, businesses along South Congress Avenue historically kept their doors open late and banded together to celebrate the essence of Austin — a celebration of local music, art and culture. Since we opened in September 2015, we've kept the festivities going and highlighted what makes our city special. We're proud that Austin's local music community has been represented on our stage with bands like The Black Pumas, CAPYAC, and The Peterson Brothers all joining the First Thursday lineup.
