SXSW 2022: Weekend Recap

SXSW 2022 kicked off on Friday, March 11 with a weekend full of interviews, panels, and performances– including a keynote interview by Lizzo on Friday night.

“By just being myself and being extremely talented and iconic and beautiful and super special, I think it has shown the world I am valuable.”

– Lizzo, @lizzobeeating

Aside from the very personal panel, the artists came out in full-force with performances by Red Rum Club, Dossey, Ruth Lyon, MEMES, and Sheryl Crow.

“Unseen,” the Porsche activation that runs through Wednesday, 3/16 showcases unseen designs and unheard music and stories.

Stay tuned all week long as we cover SXSW 2022.
