This year’s Austin City Limits Music Festival is welcoming a diverse lineup, spearheaded by Dua Lipa, Chris Stapleton, Tyler, the Creator, Blink-182, Sturgill Simpson, Pretty Lights, Leon Bridges and Khruangbin as headliners.
The festival — set for Oct. 4-6 and Oct. 11-13 at Zilker Park in Austin, Texas — will also feature performances from artists including Carin Leon, Benson Boone, Renee Rap, Norah Jones, Teddy Swims, Chappell Roan, Fletcher, The Red Clay Strays, Orville Peck, Vince Staples, Mickey Guyton, Dasha, Dexter and the Moonrocks, Rett Madison, Tanner Adell, Emily Nenni and Hermanos Gutiérrez.
Lipa, who recently issued her third album Radical Optimism on May 3, is making her ACL Fest debut, as is Blink-182. Meanwhile, Stapleton released his most recent album, Higher, in November. Higher was led by Stapleton’s Billboard Country Airplay No. 2 hit “White Horse.”
In 2019, Bridges won a Grammy for best traditional R&B performance for his song “Bet Ain’t Worth the Hand,” and released most recent EP, Texas Moon (with Khruangbin) in 2022. Tyler, the Creator was added to the ACL Fest at the last minute in 2021 (replacing DaBaby), but returns for his own full-fledged ACL performance this year. Grammy-winner Simpson will also be a headliner at the upcoming Outside Lands festival in San Francisco in August; his most recent album release came in 2021, with The Ballad of Dood & Juanita.
Three-day tickets to the festival, which was founded in 2002, will go on sale on Tuesday (May 7) at noon CT.
