Willie Nelson’s 4th of July Picnic Thu July 4, Austin360 Amphitheater, 9201 Circuit of the Americas Blvd, Austin An annual tradition since 1972, leave it to Willie Nelson to make 4th of July even better. Good ol’ Willie takes the stage every year, and brings a bunch of friends to provide live music, too. So sit back with a beer in your hand and enjoy the live music with your own friends. Split between two stages, think of this bash as a way to celebrate ‘Merica and, more importantly, Texas. Photo via Instagram / willienelsonofficial Credit: Photo via Instagram / willienelsonofficial
