FIRST AUSTIN CITY LIMITS FEST 2002 The first Austin City Limits Music Festival in 2002 featured 67 bands, including Pat Green, Gary Clark Jr., and The String Cheese Incident. What started as a two-day event in Zilker Park with $25 tickets and 40,000 attendees has grown into an iconic Austin tradition that is so much fun! 🎶🌳 Are you attending this year or what’s been your fav year? . . . . 📸 @fox7austin Thanks @TexasTasty for the cool video idea! #austincitylimits #acl #austin #austintx #aclfest #zilkerpark #aclfest2025
