The title is self-explanatory. We're in the off-season. It's way too early to make the spec thread, and it feels way too soon to just move on and act like the festival didn't happen.
So, we have this! Start putting in your way-too-early guesses and wishes, find those missed connections, and share whatever else you want to share.
P.S. Spec thread will be up in December.

Hi, I'm looking for one used Austin city limits weekend to general mission wristband for collection purposes. It could be cut or not. Will pay for shipping. Thank you.

rumored for coachella, doing primavera, headlining all points east…. sounds like a festival circuit to me…

He’s got an album coming out pretty soon what are the odds he will go on tour next year and not have anything scheduled for acl weekend? Probably would be a weekend 1 or 2 exclusive.
It seems like the reason why this year had such a heavy edm focus was because all the rap artists canceled so they had to fill the slots so I feel like we are due for another big rap year next year and Eminem is the perfect headliner for that. Thoughts?

Hey yall! The daughter of my partner who passed away back in 2017 just turned 18 so she flew out to Austin to join me for ACL to experience her first festival. We had an amazing time, but when we got back to my apartment, she realized she lost the shorts she had gotten at the merch tent 😭 they were the blue-grey fleece shorts with the little acl flag symbol on it in a medium. Curious if anyone happened to find a pair of medium shorts somewhere? 😅 I have looked online to replace them for her but the ones she got aren’t there. (Idk if there’s a super secret hack to getting the exclusive merch that is only sold at the festival?) If anyone happened to get them in a medium (or even a large) and they don’t fit right or something, let me know and I’ll buy them from you! I got the brown crop with the longhorn if you wanted to trade but it’s an XL lol we walked a good 25 min back to the car so they could have been anywhere!! We did go back and retrace our steps the next morning in the daylight with no luck. She said she didn’t want to think about it or try anything else because she’d get too sad 😢 so I’m just trying to see what I can do!!! I believe someone can help us out!! 🫶

leaving COTA right now and would love Post Malone to be the ACL headliner and he confirmed he has new music dropping. Seen him live multiple times now and he’s just fantastic

I love ACL - but boy Austin screwed itself on this deal

Ever since I saw the xx at ACL Ive been obsessively rewatching their whole set that was streamed on YouTube. I had a feeling it was coming, but the set has been taken down. Does anybody know where to get the full video??

New album out in January with a set of tour dates released for early 2027 that include no Texas date. I missed them in 2014, and then they came back in my off years. I'm fingers crossed we get them 2027.
r/aclfestival • u/Ryanw254 • 6d ago
I don’t see any 2027 dates, so maybe. 🤞

I’m trying to confirm: were Peter Bjorn & John playing when the fire broke out? I just saw them at Mohawk tonight, and he mentioned remembering playing in Austin in 2007 but thought it was SXSW (probably did both that year, no?).
I was definitely there that day (Fri. 9/14), and I have a pretty distinct memory of Peter saying between songs, “hey, your festival’s on fire.”
From Google:
“A propane tank exploded and caught fire at the 2007
Austin City Limits (ACL) Music Festival on September 14, 2007, at Zilker Park. The afternoon explosion behind vendor tents injured four people, including two critically injured individuals transported to San Antonio, while temporarily halting nearby performances like Pete Yorn's set. Read more in Vanity Fair.
Event Details
• Date: September 14, 2007 (Friday of the festival weekend) VE Vanity Fair +1
• Location: Zilker Park, Austin, Texas (near vendor tents behind the stages)
• Cause: A propane tank attached to a vendor trailer
• Casualties: Four people injured; two victims suffered critical burns and were airlifted/transported to Brooke Army Medical Center in San Antonio. ®
• Impact on Festival: Sent thick black smoke into the air and briefly paused performances (such as Pete Yorn), though the fire was contained within roughly 40 minutes and the festival resumed.”

Does anyone have an extra charli hoodie they are willing to sell?

This is probably a long shot, but during W1 after the turnstile set they started handing out setlists and throwing drum sticks into the crowd. At the end, Daniel (the drummer) got off and handed me a setlist himself at the barricade:’) I’d love to have any photo/video of that if anyone happens to have anything!

It’s 50 degrees out rn w/a high of 72 later this afternoon. Perfect weather for being outside all day.

Just posting out of curiosity to see if I can find the guy I vibed with during The War on Drugs set on Sunday.
We were standing on the right side of the stage, towards mid-front.
You were wearing a Sampler Platter hat and mentioned that you live in Austin now but haven't always. I was the blonde girl in a white tank top and brown shorts.
We had that funny moment where I showed you my phone because I had literally just texted my ACL onsite friend group the exact same thing your hat said (before I saw it).
I mentioned the crinkles by your eyes caught my eye because it meant you smile a lot.
After the set I walked away, but something in me wished you'd followed me.
I smiled during our brief conversation and wanted to say hi and know a little more about who you are.
If you're on here, reply or shoot me a DM.

Look I know how everyone hates Travis here, but realistically there are also some fans who probably love him. He's playing three LATAM Lollapaloozas in March, and there is a new album on the way. What could that mean for ACL/Chicago Lolla? Please don't downvote because you dislike him, and don't say anything unless it's real feedback.
