Austin City Limits Music Festival was founded in 2002. This annual music festival features many of the major genres and takes place in Austin, Texas in Zilker Park. The event takes place over 2 consecutive 3-day weekends. The festival is produced by C3 Presents, a company that is also known for Lollapalooza. There are several stages that are spread throughout the park, which has an art market, a kids’ area, food and beverages, and various other activities for the attendees of this event to enjoy. It is estimated that around 450,000 attendees flock to the Austin City Limits Music Festival every year. This major music festival attracts some of the biggest names in music, with such acts as The Cure, Artic Monkeys, Radiohead, and Foo Fighters performing at this event in the past.
When the event was originally founded in 2002, this was just a one-weekend festival. It stayed this way until 2012, when they decided to expand this event for the 2013 festival. Eventually this event was expanded into an international music festival, with the Sydney City Limits and Auckland City Limits events.
The 2021 Austin City Limits Music Festival will take place between October 1st – 3rd and the 8th – 10th. You can purchase these tickets from the official Austin City Limits website.
