3. Can I bring my own food? No. No outside food allowed.
4. Can I bring my own drink or bottle? No. No outside drink, bottle, containers, or tumblers allowed.
5. Can I bring a lawn chair? No. The Doris Miller will have seating at tables and in the bleachers.
6. How much does it cost? It's free admission.
7. How about parking? Parking is free and there is street parking throughout the neighborhood. We recommend carpooling with friends, or CapMetro or Uber or Lyft. There is a #2 CapMetro bus stop right in front of the Doris MIller Auditorium.
8. How bad is Austin traffic? It is usually better in the summer, but be sure to plan accordingly.
9. Is the venue ADA accessible for visitors? Yes. ADA parking is limited, but it is very easy to drop off at the entrance and go park in the neighborhood. Our founder is disabled himself, so this is very important to us.

11. Will there be stuff to buy? Yes! We will have our own merchandise to sell and bands will be bringing theirs too.
12. What should I wear? The Doris Miller is an indoor venue, so you can be fancy if you want.
13. Will there be a dancefloor? OF COURSE!
14. Will there be Wifi? No.
15. Do photographers and media need credentials? No. Just come on by. Photos and video and sharing on social media are encouraged. However, only bands and staff are allowed backstage or on the stage.
16. Do I need to bring cash to pay for food, beverages and merchandise? It's not required. We accept cards, CashApp, and Venmo.
We recommend wearing a mask indoors, but it's not required. Please take whatever precautions you feel comfortable with and understand there is an inherent risk of being around a large group of people. Especially if you are a senior or immunocompromised.
