celebrating 50 years of music with iconic events
October 17, 2024 marks 50 years to the day that Willie Nelson first stepped on our stage to record the pilot episode. Mark your calendars and join us in celebrating the 50th season of Austin City Limits with these incredible events.
On November 21, ACL will tape a primetime PBS special at ACL Live at The Moody Theater, ACL Celebrates 50 Years. This all-star celebration will feature stars from the show’s five-decade history returning to the Austin City Limits stage. Sponsor packages sold out.
