Welcome to the 2019 edition of the SXSW Conference & Festivals. We’re positively thrilled that you’re here!

It’s International Women’s Day, and there is a powerhouse lineup of badass ladies scheduled throughout the event. But they don’t book amazing women because they’re women — they are booked because they are bright, fierce, intelligent leaders in their fields and we are privileged to be the place where they share their work.

There’s so much good stuff on tap for you — where do we even begin? Don’t miss: our stellar Opening Speaker, best-selling author Brené Brown; HBO’s inventive Bleed For The Throne activation; the start of the spectacular Art Program; and more.

 

Check out some of today’s highlights and important info below.
