When in Texas, you simply go big or go home. This mindset explains this year’s impressive Austin City Limits festival lineup. With the beloved multi-day live music extravaganza celebrating its 25th anniversary, organizers were sure to cross every musical “t” and dot every sonic “i” when selecting featured acts.
Split between two glorious weekends (October 2-4 and October 9-11), festivalgoers will flock to Zilker Park, all with the goal of catching some of music’s biggest names live.
Charli XCX (October 2 & October 9), Skrillex (October 2), Turnstile (October 2 & October 9), Kings Of Leon (October 9), Rüfüs Du Sol (October 3 & October 10), Lorde (October 3 & October 10), Lola Young (October 3 & October 10), Young Miko (October 3 & October 10), Twenty One Pilots (October 4 & October 11), The xx (October 4 & October 11), Geese (October 4 & October 11), and Sofi Tukker (October 4 & October 11) will serve as headliners for Austin City Limits 2026.
Lorde, Geese, and The xx are the sole independent headliners. Other notable independent acts slated to hit the Austin City Limits 2026 stage include Jesse Welles, S.G. Goodman, Paris Paloma, Bleachers, Rochelle Jordan, Cure For Paranoia, Fcukers, Stella Lefty, and Sasha Keable.
This year’s lineup is packed with acts across each weekend. However, it is important to note who’s playing each weekend, as many artists, including some headliners, are only confirmed for one of the two weekends—not both.
