Festival-goers can beat the heat again this year thanks to our refreshing partnership with Cowboy Pools! Their modern, stock tank-style plunge pool will be set up on-site at RADIO/EAST, offering the perfect way to cool down between sets. Built right here in Austin, Cowboy Pools are designed for style, simplicity, and summer fun—just another reason Here Be Monsters is the most chill festival in town.
