WHERE:
There is no better place for an automotive summit than in Downtown Austin in early November.
With an average November temperature of 67 degrees, Austin is the perfect setting for an evening downtown stroll while experiencing its vibrant and vintage music scene.
And of course, Austin has become a cutting edge technology and investment hub, making it the perfect area to learn about and create new solutions with new revenue streams for your dealership.
VENUE:
You won’t be stuck in a hotel ballroom all day while attending AUTOVATE 2018. Instead, we’ll be learning in a classic Austin setting — the former La Zona Rosa, a longtime Austin music venue that is now Vast/CarStory’s headquarters at 612 W. 4th Street, in the heart of downtown Austin.
HOTEL:
AUTOVATE has secured a rate of $229 per night at the Intercontinental Stephen A. Austin for conference attendees. Rooms need to be booked by October 16th to guarantee the rate.
Book hotel room here.
The Intercontinental is located in downtown Austin at 701 Congress Avenue. It’s a half mile, 12 minute stroll to the conference venue at 612 West 4th Street.
We’ll also have transportation to and from the event venue (CarStory’s headquarters).
AUSTIN PARTY:
A trip to Austin isn’t complete without experiencing the vibrant downtown of Austin. Attendees, along with their spouses and partners, are invited to join us for a vintage Austin party, with music provided by one of Austin’s favorite cover bands, SkyRocket, along with great food and drink.
