I arrived at the ACC because of the SXSW Convention in March. It was my first time here and in the city of Austin as well. I can say firstly that Austin was a fantastic city. I am from upstate NY and have been to both NYC and Boston.. gotta say I enjoyed Austin the best hands down.

As for the Austin Convention Center. I enjoyed it very much - it was packed up and busy for the SXSW event going on but I still managed to take in what the convention center had to offer. I thought it flowed very well and was easy enough to navigate. The people were super friendly and the days spent there were unforgettable.

My only gripe would be that the convention center couldn't hold everything that they had to offer at SXSW and often I had to go to adjacent hotels which were hosting more events. I mean... it wasn't a big deal because the places were so close to one another (and I guess them having so much material for the event makes sense that they can't contain it in one location).

All in all, great building, great event (SXSW) and definitely recommend visiting this city and convention center at some point!
