Austin is a magical oasis of food, fun things, culture, and weirdness, so when one is tasked with pointing out-of-towners toward the best the city has to offer, the options can be overwhelming!

Luckily, Fun Things To Do has curated a list of unique activities, exciting events, and delicious cuisine eclectic enough to satisfy every palate and lifestyle.

Whether you’re visiting our fair city from Dallas or Australia, this site has your interests covered, offering everything from Austin’s best Ethiopian restaurants to the kooky celebrations like Eeyore’s Birthday that keep the city’s reputation for eccentricity alive!

So it’s no surprise that they’ve included Texas Roller Derby in their list of not-to-be-missed attractions. The modern derby revival was born right here in our state’s capital, and TXRD’s combination of old-school camp (track-side brawls and minor penalty challenges, anyone?) and new-school athletic prowess sets it apart from every other form of roller derby out there. What could be more Austin than that?
