The 25th anniversary Austin City Limits Music Festival is set to take place at Zilker Park on October 2-4, 2026, for Weekend 1, and October 9-11, 2026, for Weekend 2. The festival has an immense number of activities for everyone attending, so in celebration, we’ve put together a list of things we are most excited for!
The Activities
ACL Fest provides so many activities throughout the festival. Guests can visit interactive art installations, shop Artist and Festival merch stands, take advantage of exclusive perks that may be offered by brands like AMEX or T-Mobile, and take pictures at the iconic ACL Flags. The three-day event gives attendees plenty to do in between performances, adding to the fun and energetic atmosphere.
The Food
Food is an important part of any festival, and ACL knows how to appeal to attendees! ACL Eats, the food and drink area of the festival, is a very hot spot with the best food in Austin. Some of the vendors that have participated in previous years include: Happy Chicks, Juiceland, Amy’s Ice Cream, The Mighty Cone, and many more! Whether you want something vegan, sweet, or local – there is something for everyone to eat! We can’t wait to see what food vendors will be at the festival this year!

Music
One of our favorite things about ACL Fest is the diversity in performers on the lineup. Some of the artists that are set to perform this year include: Charli XCX, Lorde, Twenty One Pilots, Labrinth, Ryan Beatty, Saint Motel, and many more! Whether you want something more laid back and calm or something that will have you dancing non-stop, ACL makes sure that there is something for everyone!
