About Austin City Limits Festival
The show is produced by the famous television show Austin City Limits, which has been known to showcase some of the biggest names in the music industry on their program. Musicians like Ray Charles, Leonard Cohen, Mary Chapin Carpenter, Willy Nelson and Sheryl Crowe have all performed on the television show. The festival however deals more with Indie musicians and mainstream musicians. The festival is an incredibly huge draw since there is no other festival like it in the area. Of late a number of British bands such as Franz Ferdinand and Coldplay have also joined the line up.
The festival takes place in Zilker Park- the venue isn't very big on shade which has proved to be a problem when the temperatures are high. Still the venue has proved to be ideal in terms of the volume of people that visit the festival and the time of year, September, is also ideal since anything earlier would be too hot and anything later would run the risk of inclement weather conditions. Patrons are allowed to bring two bottles of water inside with them and there is reasonably priced food and drink available inside.
The festival has drawn some of the hugest names in the music industry as well as some of the best in terms of upcoming talent. Some musicians that have appeared in the festival line-up in the past are R.E.M, Coldplay, The Killers, Franz Ferdinand, Oasis, The Black Crowes, The Allman Brothers, Lucinda Willaims, Buddy Guy, Keane, Kaiser Chiefs, Kasabian, Spoon, Aqualung, Cake, Roseanne Cash, Elvis Costello, Sheryl Crowe, Howie Day, The Pixies, The Neville Brothers, Gomez, Broken Social Scene and Patty Griffin.
The Austin City Limits Festival has quickly risen to being one of the premier rock festivals in the country, running on par with Bonnaroo and the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival. The venue is right in the middle of the city and there is plenty of accommodation available for the concert goers. So don't miss your chance to see all these great musicians perform live in concert- contact your online ticket vendor for more details on how to get tickets to The Austin City Limits Festival.
