The ninth annual SpringFest will be held April 30th at the Hill Country Galleria in Bee Cave. The festival is presented by St. David’s 24-7 Emergency Center, coordinated by the Lake Travis Chamber of Commerce and supported by the city of Lakeway.


“It is the biggest time in the smallest town,” said Laura Mitchell, president of the Lake Travis Chamber of Commerce.


The Lake Travis-area event brings in more than 8,000 people annually from throughout Central Texas, Mitchell said.


In addition to live musical performances—including Innate Space, Andrea Marie and the Magnolia Band, and Ginger Leigh—the event features children’s performances in gymnastics, theater and dance.


Other supporting partners presenting the festival include Vibra Rehabilitation Hospital of Lake Travis, Community Impact Newspaper and High 5 entertainment center.
