The 2015 Austin City Limits Festival is underway and can now be livestreamed online, so you don’t miss out on the many artists playing this weekend in the capital of Texas.
The festival, which began 14 years ago, just started running two weekends per year instead of one just a few years back. Those behind the festival – not Live Nation – are now allowing people access to the performances taking place during Weekend One. Red Bull TV is bringing the festival experience to online viewers beginning at 2 pm Central time and continuing all weekend long at the festival grounds, Austin’s Zilker Park.
From October 2-4, fans both local and worldwide can go to the Red Bull TV site to watch performances by artists such as Gary Clark Jr., MisterWives, Billy Idol, A$AP Rocky and Unknown Mortal Orchestra. Viewers will be able to switch between three different channels (with the exception of Friday’s stream, which only carries two channels), so the maximum amount of performances is available to those who couldn’t make it to the festival – or those who just want to avoid the crowds. Below is the schedule for Red Bull TV’s livestream of this year’s Austin City Limits Festival.
Each channel has a host: Sal Masekela, Ted Stryker and Maz Compton, respectively. They will be giving viewers front row access to some of the most anticipated performances at this year’s festival, and in some cases, there will be exclusive interviews with artists backstage. To round out the experience, they’ll dig deeper into what makes ACL Fest stand out and will meet up with some people from Funny Or Die.
