YTexas Next Decade Tour — Austin

October 20, 2027 | Formula 1 Race Week
Theme idea: Texas on the World Stage

Austin is the most energetic and outward-looking stop of the year.

The timing is especially powerful because Formula 1 has committed to keeping the U.S. Grand Prix at Austin’s Circuit of the Americas through 2034. F1 says the event has drawn more than 430,000 fans in recent years, giving Austin an unusually international audience and atmosphere.

The Austin event will explore technology, entrepreneurship, mobility, AI, advanced manufacturing, innovation, entertainment and the continued internationalization of the Texas economy. This event is designed differently from the other stops—more experiential, social and relationship-oriented, taking advantage of the energy surrounding Race Week.

Why Austin: Austin provides the opportunity to tell the Texas story to an audience that extends well beyond Texas. During Race Week, business leaders, investors, executives and visitors from around the world converge on the city. YTexas is using this moment to showcase Texas as a place where companies, people and ideas connect.
