Austin’s quirky festival located at Auditorium Shores called Fun Fun Fun fest is one that draws in a wide variety of music listeners. Each of the six stages offer a different sort of entertainment for the viewer to enjoy. This beloved independent festival will be held Nov.8-10.
The Orange stage is the most popular out of the six stages. Often referred to as “hipster central”, this stage is where your ears will be exposed to the sounds of independent artists and the headliners of the show. This years most well known act that is playing on the Orange stage would be MGMT who is playing Sunday evening.
Next most popular would be the Blue Stage, which features underground rap artists and older rap legacies. Interestingly enough, famous rapper Snoop Dogg, recently renamed Snoop Lion will be in attendance. Another big name performer playing on the Blue stage Friday Night is Lupe Fiasco.
Despite the bad reputation the Black stage has, its music isn’t all extreme metal and scary amounts of punk. If you’re in to the all black clothing and thick black eyeliner, you’ll fit right in at this stage. If not, still consider stopping by to see Indie/Punk crossover bands like Thee Oh Sees, Cloud Nothings, and August Burns Red.
Unlike any other festival, FFFF has a stage dedicated to big name comedians and other entertainments. The Yellow stage will be featuring the witty Sarah Silverman and Jack Black’s comedy rock group, Tenacious D. This dynamic stage also features a veggie hot dog eating contest, the taco cannon, and some others I can’t mention. Stop by to be entertained thoroughly.
Another unique trait of this festival is the Green “stage”. The term stage is used lightly here because it is actually a massive portable skate park where big name bikers and skaters come to entertain the masses. This year professional skaters like Mat Hoffman and Christian Hosoi will be there.
This is one of Austin’s gems when it comes to events. With tickets on sale until the festival actually ends, and something to see every minute of the day, there is no reason to not attend.

Senior student director Mia Morneault says how much she’s enjoyed working with the cast and crew. “I am very proud of all the cast and crew who worked as hard on it as I have. A lot of people care about [this show],” Morneault said. “I have a lot of friends on the cast and on the crew, but I’ve also grown and gained friendships through the show, even as director where I may be a little more stricter than normal. And I am very grateful for everyone I’ve gotten to work with.”](https://cphswolfpack.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/DSC_0657-1200x800.jpg)

Kato’s painting is a political piece inspired by a photo of elementary schoolers in the street protesting against ICE. “I think it's also symbolic because they're surrounded by snow, which can represent ICE, and they are still marching,” Kato said. “[The kids] are not stopping until equality or justice is served, which I think is really important to represent and show.” Photo by John Pinion](https://cphswolfpack.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/Screenshot-2026-03-26-114740.png)










![Broadcast, yearbook and newspaper combined for 66 Interscholastic League Press Conference awards this year. Yearbook won 43, newspaper won 14 and broadcast took home nine. “I think [the ILPC awards] are a great way to give the kids some acknowledgement for all of their hard work,” newspaper and yearbook adviser Paige Hert said. “They typically spend the year covering everyone else’s big moments, so it’s really cool for them to be celebrated so many times and in so many different ways.”](https://cphswolfpack.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/edited-ILPC.jpg)

The varsity baseball team played in the bi-district round of playoffs against the Boerne Greyhounds April 30-May 2, where they won Game 1 6-4, lost Game 2 2-1 and won the last game 5-2, allowing them to advance to area. “Honestly, [my favorite] big moment that wasn't even part of my moment was Dom's grand slam,” Cuevas said. “That was a big game changer in Game 1 of round one that ultimately helped us win that game and even move on. It set the tone for the games after and has really impacted and sparked this whole playoff run.” Photo by Allie Tseng](https://cphswolfpack.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/allie-boerne00159-1200x800.jpg)
















![After he takes the handoff, senior running back Trae Hill runs down the field in search of a first down. Hill rushed for three touchdowns in the 43-36 loss against Frisco Wakeland last Friday, but the Timberwolves were eliminated from playoff contention. “[I’m] just happy I got to experience the game with my brothers,” Hill said. “I’m going to remember how close and how enjoyable everything was with these guys. They are my brothers for life. Just waking up and grinding together, and proving the naysayers wrong [was my favorite part].”
