There's a lot going on at SXSW Interactive in 2012. Five days of compelling presentations, evening events and a major trade show make SXSW Interactive a can't-miss event. To go out on a high note, make sure to get to the SXSW Interactive Awards Ceremony Presented by HP on Tuesday, March 13.

The SXSW Interactive Awards Ceremony is one of the signature evening events in the SXSW Interactive lineup. Winners will be announced in the 15 categories of the SXSW Interactive Awards competition, along with five special honors. We will also have a special SXSW Interactive Hall of Fame ceremony for Jeffrey Zeldman.

The night's festivities will be emceed by the hilarious comedy duo of Jenny Slate & Gabe Liedman. The Interactive Awards Pre-Party kicks off at 6 PM in the foyer outside the Austin Grand Ballroom on the 6th floor of the Downtown Hilton Austin (500 E 4th St). The ceremony starts at 7 PM inside the ballroom.

The Ceremony is open to all Interactive, Gold and Platinum registrants. Make sure to register for SXSW to attend if you haven't already.
