Oct. 4-6, Oct. 11-13 at Zilker Park

Edging toward two full decades in Zilker Park, this year’s C3-presented ACL Music Fest packs the first two weekends in October with 130 international and homegrown artists across eight stages. Hungry? The festival now offers two ACL Eats locations at different spots in the park, accepting cash, debit, and credit for all your dietary needs. Why wouldn’t you want to nosh on some Asian fusion while listening to cuts from GnR’s Chinese Democracy?
