ACL Fest 2012 is Coming Soon

It is almost time for Austin City Limits annual ACL Fest. This year's festival will again be in Zilker Park. The dates of this years festival is October 12, 13 and 14, 2012. Held annually since 2002 this is the 10th annual festival, which has become so big that next year in 2013 it is expected to expand to two weekends.  Pretty good for an event that originally started as a two day event.
