ACL Festival is gaining momentum heading into the hottest event in Austin this October 2-4 & 9-11 at Zilker Park.

General admission passes are currently sold out, but the window of opportunity for students and military members is still open. The festival will be selling a limited amount of tickets on September 26 at 10 a.m. CST. A valid student ID (High School or University) or Military ID is required to purchase up to four passes per weekend.

This year’s Student Day Sale will take place at the Zilker Park Box Office on Barton Springs Road across from the Barton Springs entrance to the festival grounds.

The Student Day Sale does cater more to the local audience, but for those not able to attend, Red Bull Music will be on hand with live streaming on YouTube.

A limited number of VIP & Platinum Passes, as well as Travel Packages, are still available for both weekends at www.aclfestival.com.

On Saturday, September 26th bring your Student ID (High School or Higher Education) or Military ID to the ACL Festival Box Office on Barton Springs Road across from the Barton Springs entrance to the festival grounds, and we’ll hook you up! The sale starts at 10am CT and will continue until passes are sold out.

Each 3-Day Pass will be sold at the Early Bird price of $225, and there is a limit of 4 per person per weekend.

In addition, ACL Festival has also announced their vendors for the event this year. Scan over the updates with the Austin City Limits Festival.

At the ACL Eats food court, you’re about to munch on something delicious from several of Austin’s finest establishments, like Mighty Cone, Lonesome Dove, and Chi’Lantro BBQ. Don’t worry, there are plenty of vegetarian, vegan, and gluten free options.
