“Music is coming back strong to the live music capital of the world,” said AUSTIN Mayor STEVE ADLER. “The return of AUSTIN CITY LIMITS as an in-person festival celebrates that our efforts as a community to become vaccinated are working. Health and safety remain our top priority, and we will work closely with the organizers and AUSTIN PUBLIC HEALTH to ensure ACL FEST is in line with our health standards. We must continue to get everyone vaccinated and keep up our success.”

“AUSTIN CITY LIMITS 2021 is a result of successful vaccine efforts and more than a year’s worth of protection measures,” said AUSTIN-TRAVIS COUNTY Interim Health Authority DR. MARK ESCOTT. “Taking the shot is our shot at getting things back to normal, and we envision this happening before OCTOBER if we stay the course as a community. Thank you to all those who have done their part and took the vaccine, and to ACL who will utilize their broad voice to encourage vaccination in the months leading to their monumental event.”

ACL FEST has partnered with the CITY OF AUSTIN and AUSTIN PUBLIC HEALTH to encourage vaccination months before the festival. The festival has generated more than $41 million towards improvements to ZILKER PARK and parks across the city. In 2019, $6 million was donated to the AUSTIN PARKS FOUNDATION.

While the three-day ticket packages are gone, a limited number of one-day tickets will go on sale on TUESDAY, MAY 25th at noon (CT) at www.aclfestival.com.
