Earlier this month we showcased events in Austin in October. As there are so many things to do and see in the fall season, our staff at Juniper Springs apartments to rent or lease in Austin<\/a> continues the list for you!<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Formula 1 United States Grand Prix | October 23–25, 2026<\/span><\/span><\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

The Formula 1 United States Grand Prix<\/b><\/a> returns to Circuit of The Americas October 23–25. Race weekend combines world-class Formula 1 competition with concerts, fan activities and the energetic atmosphere that has made the Austin Grand Prix one of the city's signature events.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Viva La Vida Festival & D\u00eda de los Muertos<\/a> | October 24<\/span><\/span><\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

Austin's rich Mexican-American heritage takes center stage at the Viva La Vida Festival on October 24. Presented by the Mexic-Arte Museum, the celebration is Austin's longest-running D\u00eda de los Muertos festival and features a colorful grand procession, traditional foods, music, performances, art activities, local vendors and a lowrider exhibition.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Halloween at House of Torment<\/a><\/span><\/span><\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

If you prefer your Halloween with a serious scare, House of Torment<\/b> is one of Austin's best-known haunted attractions, and our staff’s as well! Elaborate sets, costumed scare actors and multiple haunted experiences make it a favorite for older teens and adults. October weekends can sell out, so advance tickets are recommended.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Another Central Texas option is SCARE for a CURE<\/b> in Manor, a nonprofit haunted attraction where proceeds support local charities. It offers an immersive, story-driven approach to Halloween rather than simply relying on spooky stuff to scare the kids.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Freaky Deaky<\/a> | October 30–31, 2026<\/span><\/span><\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

Halloween weekend gets a major dose of electronic music at Freaky Deaky Festival, October 30–31 at the Travis County Exposition Center. The two-day festival features multiple stages devoted to house, techno, trance and EDM, making it a popular Halloween destination for the 18-and-over crowd.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Austin Film Festival<\/a> | October 29–November 5, 2026<\/span><\/span><\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

Movie lovers can wrap up the month at the Austin Film Festival<\/b>, beginning October 29. Screenings, panels, conversations and filmmaker events take place at venues throughout downtown Austin. It is particularly popular with aspiring writers and filmmakers because of its strong emphasis on screenwriting and storytelling.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Make October an Austin Adventure<\/span><\/span><\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

With live music, racing, art, pumpkins, haunted attractions and one of the country's most colorful D\u00eda de los Muertos celebrations, <\/b>October may be Austin's most action-packed month of the year. Whether you're looking for a family-friendly fall weekend, a music-filled getaway or a Halloween adventure, there's something happening almost every weekend – just a short drive from our apartments for lease or rent in Austin!<\/a><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
