Special thanks to our sponsors who make SXSW possible...
"Over its four days, SXSW, as the festival is called, is like MySpace moved to the physical realm: more music than anyone could possibly hear, freely available and clamoring to be heard."
This year's SXSW Interactive boasts more then 40 official evening events. Ranging from happy hours to karaoke to late night jams, the schedule can accommodate almost anything you are in the mood for. But whatever your taste in after dark activities, there are two parties that you definitely don't want to miss -- the SXSW Interactive Festival Opening Party Hosted by frog design (Saturday, March 14 from 8:00-11:00 pm at the Mexican American Cultural Center) and the SXSW Interactive Festival Closing Party Hosted by Media Temple (Tuesday, March 17 at 7:00 pm at La Zona Rosa). Click here to see the full lineup for 2009. Unless otherwise noted, all evening events require a SXSW Interactive, Gold or Platinum badge for admittance.
