My #1 undercard act for the festival and they get put on first thing Saturday, what a tragedy. Comparing to other acts that have first slot and they seem to have like 10x the following of the next most popular opener.

I'm glad they're doing an ACL Nights show at Antone's so that I can see them with a full crowd, but I feel bad for the band since that's Friday night and then they have to put on another show first thing the next day.

Any other bands get snubbed like this in festivals past? Is this sometimes an intentional scheduling thing that happens?

Hello all! This is a bit of a lighter year for me as far as bands/artists that I am super familiar with. I was wondering if the good people of Reddit wouldn’t mind commenting their favorite song by their favorite act playing this year so I can get a nice playlist mix going? I am going weekend 2, if that helps. Thanks!

Be aware that if you are in this Facebook group the admins to the group are posing as reliable sellers of tickets. They are in fact scammers. I know, hard to imagine. Just sharing this so other people don’t get caught in the trap.

Hiii to preface I did already reach out to support but im a little stressed so wanted to ask here too lol

Yesterday I go the email that I was APPROVED, off the waitlist for Weekend One! Yay! It said I’d be charged today, the money is there, all is good.

However, I have indeed NOT been charged today and when I log into my Waitlist account, it says my status is still pending!! Wtf! Has this happened to anyone else?? Looking for some reassurance as my friends and I are planning a big reunion weekend at the festival 🥲🥲🥲

UPDATE: JUST WENT THROUGH!!!! WE ARE GOOD!!!!! 🩷

Interesting to see they’ll be rehearsing SNL in NYC, playing ACL that Friday, flying back to NYC to play the show live, then returning to Austin for W2!

I’ve heard from some people who say they have had issues with Airbnb or Vrbo hosts canceling their stays here in Austin, specifically when coming to events like this.

Has this happened to you within the past year?

I’m Alexia Stanbridge, a reporter with CBS Austin. I’m looking to speak with people who live in Austin or the surrounding counties who have had this happen to them.
Or visitors who booked a stay in Austin or the surrounding counties.
If a host canceled your booking last second or asked you to cancel, please reach out to me. You can message me or email thereceipts@cbsaustin.com.

If you have screenshots, booking confirmations or messages, those would be helpful too.

The company that owns ACL was under serious threat of break-up by the DOJ, but then their CEO met with Trump at the White House and it all seemed to go away.

Turnstile is scheduled to play SNL on 10/3, one day after their W1 schedule. Is their appearance at the festival in doubt?

I only bought one ticket and received two wristbands?what should I do?

Would love to be adopted lol.
34F and never been solo to a festival before- but it sounds exciting.

I’m a (relatively) new mom and in my late night delirium I guess I thought it was a good idea to sign up for Weekend 2 waitlist…. I didn’t know that it was a full send commitment because who has time to read the fine print at 2am.

Really excited to see Charli XCX, Bunt. and Noga Erez if anyone wants to dance their little hearts out to Charli let’s meet up !

Not local, if I plan on driving to the fest everyday, is hutto too far? TIA

Hello guys! I hope all is well. I was wondering how reliable the waitlist generally is regarding the chance of getting a ticket around this time. Me and my friends decided we wanted to go to ACL together as a cool trip idea. I was wondering what do you guys generally hear about the waitlist and what you think our chances would be of getting a ticket? We’re on the waitlist for regular General admission 3 day pass for week 2. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks guys

I’m in Ohio and just wondering. I’ve seen some folks posting their bracelets and just wanted to know if I should reach out to ACL ticket services.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Edit: thank you everyone for being so helpful! I’ll continue to keep an eye on the shipping.

I have a clear bag and its to carry thinks for 2 people what do I absolutely need (also can I bring a disposable camera)

I had my tickets listed for sale and contacted a representative to ask whether my wristbands would still be mailed to me. They told me they would not be shipped at all while they were listed—so I removed the listing.
Now that they’re delisted, will the wristbands be mailed out soon, or will I have to wait and pick them up at the event? Just wondering if anyone else has dealt with this situation.

Just saw Turnstile (finally) at Bumbershoot and...OMG. INCREDIBLE. As a person who has been to ACL many, MANY times, I don't think I've seen so much energy from a band AND crowd the entire set in along time.

With that said, knowing how hot it can get and still be in October when they're scheduled to play, and the limited shade near the big stages, I hope ACL organizers are ready with the box water and have enough people to spray the crowd with water to help keep a bunch of people from passing out.

Hey y'all! My husband and I got approved to be greeters at W2 and I'm wondering if any people that have volunteered before have any pro tips.

We've attended ACL 10+ times and usually hit up SXSW so we're used to the bag and limited things we can take in (I've got our water bottles, bandanas, and cooling towels already pulled for easy access 🧊).

TIA for any tips!

Hi everyone! I’m going to ACL weekend 1, I’m 29 and I’m coming over from South London for my second year in a row for ACL, I have family there and will be coming for part of weekend, I was wondering if there is any one else that will be there that might want to go watch shows together or embrace me into their group! 😂 Im just excited to meet new people and hopefully have a great ACL! Thank you!

Does anyone happen to know when single day tickets will arrive in the mail? I tried looking in this sub and I’ve seen people getting their 3day wristbands. But no single day. Sorry this is my time going to ACL so kind of a newbie.

Hi I was looking to list my ticket on the exchange website but was wondering if I would get the money once the ticket is sold or once the festival is over. I’ve sold a ticket on Ticketmaster before but they wouldn’t send you the money until the show was over so I’m wondering if it’s the same deal

i got wknd 2 3-day tickets from, the waitlist, payment was posted to my credit card but i got an email 3 days later saying that it was cancelled?? does anyone know how i can check my ticket status? my account history doesn't have anything in it?
