Welcome to Austin, home of SPAMTOWN USA!  Whether you're visiting Austin to attend a sporting event, conference or festival, we hope you enjoy your stay.  The Austin Convention and Visitors Bureau is here to help you find your way around the city and enjoy the many activities going on throughout the year.

     You've probably heard of SPAM luncheon meat, and that Austin is home to Hormel Foods Corp., but you may not be aware of all there is to do and see here.  Make sure to take some time to visit the Hormel Historic Home, Jay C. Hormel Nature Center, Mower County Historical Center and Hormel Foods Museum.  Also, partake of the many activities that happen throughout our four colorful seasons.  Biking, cross-country skiing, bowling, snowmobiling, baseball and softball are just a start of our recreational opportunities!

     Remember, the Austin Convention and Visitors Bureau is here to help you.  We hope you find this World-Wide Web Site fun and informative.  If we can be of assistance, please call us at:  1-800-444-5713.

     Once again, WELCOME TO AUSTIN!
