Considering its prime location in “The Live Music Capital of the World,” it should come as no surprise that the Austin City Limits Festival is always one of the year’s most highly anticipated events. This year, fans are even more elated than usual, as the festival has expanded to two full weekends of live entertainment, which will take place Oct. 4-6 and Oct. 11-13 at beautiful Zilker Park in downtown Austin, Texas. Though the Austin City Limits lineup has yet to be announced, the event’s history of featuring the world’s hottest artists is a good indicator of what’s to come.
Those looking to purchase Austin City Limits tickets can purchase single-day and three-day passes for both weekends and prepare for all of the incredible music, food, and cultural activities taking place in fall 2013. Each year, over 130 bands from diverse musical genres like rock, country, folk, indie, hip-hop, reggae, and bluegrass descend upon the Texas state capital to perform on eight stages. In 2012, attendees were witness to acts like The Black Keys, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Neil Young and Crazy Horse, Jack White, Iggy and the Stooges, The Roots, Avicii, M83, The Shins, Florence and the Machine, and Bassnectar.
Fans hoping to attend the Austin City Limits Festival who missed out on the early bird sales will be able score 3-day passes this spring to the eclectic musical gathering. The annual destination festival is scheduled to take place this year in downtown Austin, Texas the weekend of October 12th-14th. Some of the biggest names in music will be performing on stages throughout the lush confines of Zilker Park, attracting upwards of 70,000 music lovers to the capital city. Festival goers can choose from single day or weekend 2012 Austin City Limits tickets at Vivid Seats. The lineup has yet to be released for the fall but the festival has an amazing reputation for attracting top acts. Last year, Coldplay, Kanye West, Arcade Fire, Stevie Wonder, and Alison Krauss & Union Station all performed at ACL Fest. Stay tuned for updates about this year’s lineup.
