On Wednesday night, unwind with some food and drink while you rub elbows with old and new friends at the Hilton during the annual Welcome Dinner. Tickets for the deluxe buffet are $90 per person and include two drink tickets. Registrants can buy a second dinner admission for a guest. Buy your tickets now and plan to mingle with fellow registrants and relish the delicious fare while making plans for the busy week ahead.

This event is casual. Attendance is limited subject to capacity. Advance registration and payment (you can buy one additional admission for a guest) is required when you register for your SXSW Music or Platinum badge (if events are not sold out onsite you can purchase admissions until 12:00 noon on Friday, March 8).

If you’ve already registered for SXSW and would like to add the dinner, please email reg@sxsw.com
