About Arlyn Studios
Arlyn Studios is a privately run recording studio complex in the heart of Austin’s SoCo neighborhood. Located at 200 Academy Drive, #140, the 7,000 square foot site hosts intimate performances inside Studio A and serves as a hub for recording sessions. While its public-facing audience capacity isn’t published, the space is designed for close-up, high-quality musical moments, making it a favorite for artists and fans seeking a more personal concert experience.
Accessible via local transit and a short walk from South Congress Avenue, Arlyn Studios sits near a mix of shops, eateries, and hotels—perfect for a day of music, dining, and exploring Austin’s vibrant culture.
Parking is available in a large surface lot behind the Terrace, though there isn't a dedicated venue parking garage. If you’re visiting for a show, plan for a brief stroll from your car to the studio spaces. Nearby hotels and restaurants offer convenient options for pre- or post-show meals and overnight stays. A stay at South Congress Hotel (approx. 0.5–1 mile away) pairs well with an intimate performance at Arlyn Studios. For travelers, Arlyn Studios is a strong anchor point in the SoCo corridor, close to transit routes and walkable to many SoCo amenities.
Notable moments at Arlyn Studios include historic recording sessions with artists like Willie Nelson, Stevie Ray Vaughan, and Gary Clark Jr., as well as intimate Studio A performances and SXSW-related events. Though plans to revive the old Opera House as a separate venue are on hold as of 2021–2025, Arlyn Studios continues to offer a unique, artist-focused environment for live music and recording in Austin.
