UT Austin Given its historic nature and the fact that it had the highest ticket sales in 2019 of any Austin theater, it would be difficult for any locale to upstage Bass Concert Hall except maybe the legendary venue itself. Austin’s largest performing arts venue, Bass Concert Hall is undergoing a $3 million renovation that will bring the 40-year-old theater into the 21st century. The privately funded makeover follows several recent renovations, one in 2009 that expanded the venue’s lobby space and improved the building’s front façade, and one in 2013 that involved replacing orchestra-level seats.
