Austin City Limits releases more details on free 2020 'broadcast'
AUSTIN (KXAN) — It’s official: Austin City Limits is back for 2020, but in an unconventional way.
For nearly two decades, the Austin City Limits Music Festival has been one of the highlights of the year for the city’s music community, but the 2020 in-person festival was cancelled in July.
Now, festival organizers have announced Thursday that ACL Fest will officially take place as a “special, free broadcast” from Oct. 9-11.
“A year without Austin City Limits Music Festival is hard to imagine,” a statement from the ACL Fest read. “Since 2002, we haven’t let rain, heat, cold, dust or mud stop us from gathering for a weekend of live music in Zilker Park. This year, the safest place to be is at home. “
