Good morning, Austin! This is Morgan Riley, bringing you the latest news from our vibrant city.
Word on the streets of Austin is buzzing about the upcoming Besame Mucho Festival, returning to the Circuit of the Americas on April 5, 2025. The lineup features Latin music superstars like Carin León, Peso Pluma, and Los Tigres Del Norte. Tickets go on presale November 22, starting at just $19.99 down. It's shaping up to be an unforgettable celebration of Latin culture right here in the heart of Texas.
In local government news, the Austin Municipal Court has announced its 2025 Warrant Amnesty program, running from March 31 to April 25. This initiative allows residents to take care of unpaid tickets and outstanding warrants without the threat of arrest. Last year's program cleared nearly 2,000 warrants and terminated over 14,000 civil parking citations. If you have any outstanding issues with the court, now's the time to address them without fear of consequences.
Shifting gears to a story that's capturing hearts across the city, the ABC Kite Fest is set to paint the skies over Zilker Park on April 5. This beloved Austin tradition brings together families, kite enthusiasts, and the community for a day of colorful fun. The festival, which is free to attend, promises activities for all ages, including kite-making workshops and the always-exciting kite-flying contest.
Looking ahead to the weekend, we're in for some beautiful spring weather. Expect sunny skies with highs in the mid-70s – perfect for outdoor activities. Speaking of which, don't forget about the Capitol 10K happening this Sunday. It's the largest 10K in Texas and the sixth-largest in the nation, so lace up those running shoes and join your fellow Austinites for this iconic race.
As we wrap up today's update, I want to remind you that Austin's spirit of community and creativity is what makes our city truly special. Whether you're flying a kite, running a race, or just enjoying a taco on a sunny patio, remember that you're part of what makes Austin weird and wonderful.
