Top Christmas Bars in Austin, TX
Jingle bells and espresso martinis? Only in Austin. As the city lights up, Christmas bars across Rainey Street and East Austin roll out the festive cheer with twinkly lights, mulled drinks, and enough space for your rowdy crew and your Secret Santa gifts. But if you want a bar that’s not already overrun with office parties, now’s the time to strike. If you're plotting a low-key catch-up or a big end-of-year bash, Tagvenue helps you sidestep the chaos and find your special kind of festivity.

FAQs about Top Christmas Bars in Austin, TX
In Austin, prices of Christmas bars average $3000 minimum spend per event. Costs vary depending on guest capacity, popularity, location, and amenities like sound systems or bar services. Extra charges may apply for custom catering, decor, or event planning services. Packages with add-ons, such as DJs, photo booths, or other entertainment services, can also increase the overall cost. Check out the typical price ranges in Austin, based on Tagvenue data:
| From $1750 | to $5000 | minimum spend per event |
| From $20 | to $50 | per person |
| From $410 | to $5000 | hire fee per event |
Downtown Austin dominates as the go-to area for Christmas bars, with many venues having stylish interiors and large capacities ideal for festive events. Areas like East Cesar Chavez and the Rainey Street Historic District are also popular, known for their bar culture and creative atmospheres. For something slightly outside the centre, South Brodie and West Campus have larger spaces suited for big corporate parties or community celebrations.
To keep costs low, consider booking early, especially for December weekends, which fill up quickly. Look into off-peak days like Mondays through Wednesdays or consider daytime events. Venues with Christmas or event packages, like Blue Owl Brewing, often offer excellent value for mid-sized groups. Comparing minimum spends against included services like staffing, bar packages, or AV equipment is another good way to find better value.
