Fall is one of the hottest seasons for Festivals and November has tons in store or Austin, TX. From BBQ, to Mac n Cheese, Wings and Bloody Mary\’s there is a plethora events to choose from. And in case you’re a planner like me, here are some food, chef and spirits centric festivals and/or events happening in Austin, Texas in November 2018:
When: 11/3 – 1/4

New this year, the month-long promotion will expand to take place at all 3 locations (not just dine-in at SoCo), including the newest location off North Loop; and will feature several special DOUGHvember-only menu items from which a portion of proceeds will be donated – in addition to all three locations offering their own free-pizza-for-a-year raffles. Plus, all three locations will host a profit-sharing event every Monday from 5-9pm benefiting a different charity partner each week, starting with Austin Bat Cave on November 5.
As a grand finale of sorts on Tuesday, November 27, Home Slice on South Congress will once again host a super rare collaboration featuring Via 313. This event will only take place at Home Slice\’s original location on SoCo and will happen only on November 27 – which also happens to be the same day as the global charitable campaign
Giving Tuesday. Pinthouse Pizza will also be doing a 4-tap takeover the night of the grand finale event at the South Congress location.
