NORTH AUSTIN, TX—In keeping with Austin's commitment to sustainability and creating an ecologically resilient community, soccer fans are invited to enjoy Austin's new professional soccer team, Austin FC, play their first home game at Q2 Stadium —the newly built North Austin stadium designed with an array of sustainability features.
