Circuit of The Americas™ (COTA) is offering multi-night,
premium RV parking spaces during two major events coming to Central Texas next
month. South by Southwest (SXSW), the world’s largest music, film and
interactive festival, will take over downtown Austin March 7-16, while the Star
of Texas Rodeo returns to the Travis County Fair and Expo Center March 1-16.
Both events draw hundreds of thousands of out-of-state visitors to the Austin
area.
To help accommodate the many visitors heading to Austin for
SXSW and the rodeo, COTA is renting its permanent RV parking spaces located
along the circuit’s Back Straight between Turns 11 and 12. The rental price per
space is $50 for up to four people and includes one 75-foot paved RV space
with 24-hour security and in-and-out privileges. RV sites will have access to
water and electricity hook ups, full bathrooms and a laundry facility.
COTA is located only minutes from Austin-Bergstrom
International Airport and is approximately 15 miles from downtown Austin, where
many of the SXSW activities are planned. COTA also provides easy access to SH
130 and U.S. 183, two main arteries leading to the Travis County Expo Center
where the rodeo takes place.
“We are pleased to offer safe and affordable accommodations
for guests traveling to Austin for these major events,” COTA Vice President of
Public & Media Relations Julie Loignon said. “RV spots during these
festivals are in high demand, and we’re happy to make our permanent spaces and
support services available to Austin visitors.”
Premium RV parking can be reserved by calling
Julie Woody at 512-944-5800 or 512-944-5096. RV park rules and regulations will
be posted at www.circuitoftheamericas.com. There will be an additional charge
of $5 per day for RV sites that exceed four occupants.
RV parking spaces will
also be offered during the Republic of Texas Biker Rally, set for June 12-15,
2014.
