AUSTIN, Texas — The Daily staff spent their final days at South by Southwest 2023 at pop-up and craft fair events, Rolling Stone’s Future of Music event and the “Joy Ride” red carpet.
On day seven, Daily staffers explored Apple TV+’s “Tetris” pop-up event at the South Lamar Alamo Drafthouse. Inside, visitors got to play a series of “Tetris” games with a live leaderboard, take photos with 8-bit figures and purchase some of the film-inspired merchandise with their complementary game token.
The group then stopped by the La Croix Lounge on 6th St. Attendees were offered a variety of free La Croix merchandise, like stickers and koozies, as well as complimentary mocktails. The lounge consisted of an indoor, “bubble”-filled space and an outdoor yard full of coolers of La Croix.
The following day, the Daily attended the Renegade Craft, the “world’s leading independent craft and design fair,” according to its SXSW event description. A second floor room at the Austin Mariott was filled with over 100 art and craft vendors,. The booths’ products ranged from handmade jewelry and candles to digital designs and thrifted clothing.
