A 3-DAY CONVERGENCE OF TRUTH-SEEKERS
Quest for Ancient Civilizations is a weekend conference bringing together researchers, authors, and explorers who are asking the questions mainstream archaeology won't touch.
This isn't passive consumption. It's active investigation.

2,000 Seekers
The largest Quest gathering ever assembled
Each speaker brings their own area of expertise. Together, they're building a picture of human history that's far more complex — and far more interesting — than what you learned in school.
You'll hear from researchers who've spent decades in the field: investigating ancient technologies, decoding astronomical alignments in megalithic sites, exploring civilizations that shouldn't exist according to conventional timelines.
This is where questions become quests.
The Questions They Won't Ask
How did ancient cultures build megalithic structures with precision we struggle to replicate today?
Why do civilizations separated by oceans share the same myths, symbols, and astronomical knowledge?
What caused the sudden collapse of advanced societies at the end of the last Ice Age?
Is there evidence of a lost civilization that predates everything we've been taught?
These aren't theoretical puzzles. They're the keys to understanding who we really are.
At Quest Austin, we don't just ask these questions — we examine the evidence that demands they be answered.

Something Is Building.
In April 2025, we hosted Graham Hancock in Sedona. It was our most successful event yet — and it sparked a wave of new partnerships with creators and thought leaders whose audiences reach into the millions.
In December 2025, Scottsdale Quest brought it all together: Jimmy Corsetti, David Hatcher Childress, Randall Carlson, Hugh Newman, William Henry, and more — live, unfiltered, in the room.
The energy was undeniable. Connections formed that will last lifetimes. Questions were asked that no mainstream conference would touch.
Now, the Quest comes to Austin.
Bigger stage. Bigger lineup. Bigger questions.
This isn't just another event.
It's the next chapter.
Three Days. One Quest.
Here's what a weekend at Quest Austin looks like.
