SXSW came to a close Sunday after a weekend of big performances.

What happened: Dolly Parton combined country and NFTs at ACL Live in glittery, red fringe.

  • Fans poured into the new Moody Amphitheater at Waterloo Park to catch Norwegian DJ Kygo and singer-songwriter Shawn Mendes.
  • Don Toliver wrapped up Rolling Loud's big weekend of rap at Stubb's BBQ.

Of note: On Saturday, Ukrainian artist Oleksandra Zaritska performed a special South by Southwest show: "Austin Stands With Ukraine."
