It's almost time for the 2011 Austin City Limits Festival. Beginning September 16th and continuing through to September 18th at Zilker Park (2100 Barton Springs Rd), the 2011 Austin City Limits Festival is a three day treat for the entire family. There will be lots of food, art, activities for the kids and, of course, amazing live music. This year marks the 10th anniversary of the festival.
While there are plenty of other things to do, the live music is what drives people to both this annual festival and even Austin in general. We do love our music! This year's amazing lineup includes: Stevie Wonder, Coldplay, Kanye West, Alison Krauss & Union Station, Arcade Fire, Ray LaMontagne and Cee Lo. And those are just some of the main headliners. For a complete list of who is playing and when, please visit the Austin City Limits' website.
Zilker Park is comprised of 46 acres and the 2011 Austin City Limits Festival covers it all. When you need a break from the music, grab a bite to eat. There's more than the usual festival junk food here, though. You wouldn't expect anything less from an event held in Austin, would you? There's something to tickle the tastebud of even the most fickle foodies. Enjoy everything from pizza to TexMex to creole cooking to the best of southwest flavors and more. These are just some of the Austin restaurants represented at the festival:
There are plenty of other refreshments to cool you down as well. Fresh lemonade, homemade ice cream, ice cream sandwiches and that southern staple...sweet tea. Your tastebuds won't know what hit them.
The Dell Lounge offers festival goers the chance to see what's happening all over the festival from the live You Tube feed on their video wall and gamers can charge their handheld devices in air conditioned comfort. Take a photo at the photo booth and post it online right away as well as any videos you take at the event so everyone can see what's happening. The Honda Zone offers the chance to win a 2012 Civic Si Coupe. Take advantage of the American Airlines' bag and chair check to stow your stuff when you don't need it (like sunscreen, portable chairs, etc). That way, you don't have to lug it around with you all day.
The kids aren't left out, though. Austin Kiddie Limits offers live entertainment as well as fun arts and crafts activities to enjoy. Kids 10 and under get in absolutely free when they are accompanied by an adult. There's a Hip Hop workshop, color puzzle, School of Rock workshop, sandy fun at Zilker Beach, DrumZone, action painting and much, much more. Healthy snacks and yummy lemonade are available to keep the kids' tummies full, too.
The 2011 Austin City Limits Festival highlights the very best that Austin real estate has to offer. Great food, amazing music and good family fun is what living here in Austin is all about. Come and see for yourself!
