KVUE Austin — Watch Live

KVUE is the ABC station for Austin and Central Texas, covering the state capital and the fast-changing communities around it. The newsroom keeps up with a city known for its music, its tech growth and its politics, along with the surrounding Hill Country and suburbs like Round Rock, Cedar Park and San Marcos that keep filling in with new arrivals.

Because Austin is the seat of state government, KVUE naturally follows the goings-on at the Capitol as well as City Hall and Travis County. Everyday coverage includes Central Texas weather, from spring and fall storms rolling across the Hill Country to the long, hot summers and the occasional flash flooding that this stretch of Texas is prone to. Add in traffic on I-35 and the region's growing road network, coverage of local schools, and the consumer and investigative work that looks out for viewers.

The station also tells the human-interest and community stories that reflect Austin's character, plus high school and local sports across the metro. For longtime residents watching their city change and for newcomers still finding their footing, KVUE offers a clear, friendly account of what is happening close to home. You can stream it live and free on NewsPlay, with no cable, subscription or sign-up required.
