Austin’s known as the live music capital of the world. Austin City Limits Music Festival is the annual music festival held in Zilker Park in Austin, TX. On two consecutive three-day weekends this year Weekend One is October 1-3, 2021, and Weekend Two is October 8-10, 2021. The festival is produced by Austin-based company C3 Presents. Founded in 2002, the festival began as a one-weekend event and remained as such through the 2012 date. On August 16, 2012, Austin City Council members voted unanimously to allow the Austin City Limits Music Festival to expand to two consecutive weekends beginning in 2013.

Today Austin City Limits has eight stages where musical groups from all genres perform for fans. The concerts continue from 11 AM to 10 PM on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday during the festival with various stages spread out in the park. Approximately 450,000 people attend the festival each year. In addition to the music performances, there are food and drinks, an art market, a kid’s area for families, and other activities for attendees. The festival also has various water fill stations, as well as plenty of bathrooms to support the large crowd.

From George Strait to Miley Cyrus it’s exciting to see these two household names performing at this festival. From Rüfüs Du Sol to Duran Duran this year’s lineup is one you won’t want to miss! Not to mention the number of electronic dance music artists who will be there. Personally, I am most excited to see Lane 8, Alison Wonderland, Madeon,  and Chris Lake.
