3-Day Passes for Austin City Limits Festival Available Through Austin CVB Site

The Live Music Capital of the World will welcome an array of recording artists for the 8th annual Austin City Limits Festival this fall, and in celebration the Austin Convention and Visitors Bureau is currently offering music lovers specially-priced passes ($165 each) to the October event.

This Austin CVB Festival Travel Package not only offers three-day entry to one of the city’s most-anticipated musical extravaganzas, but also a minimum of two-nights accommodation at one of more than 15 Austin hotels. A hotel room must be booked in order to receive the discount tickets– you must enter your ACVB hotel reservation confirmation number when purchasing tickets. A four ticket maximum per person/address/credit card is enforced. (As three-day general admission passes purchased through the festival web site have already sold out, no doubt the CVB Festival Travel Package passes will soon be snatched up.)

While on the Austin CVB website, music buffs can also buy the new compilation CD Austin Music, Volume 8. A 15-song soundtrack to the city, featuring tunes by Okkervil River and Jerry Jeff Walker, among others, also contains a mini-map of Austin music venues.

From October 2 – 4, 2009, Zilker Park will pulsate with the sounds of 130 acts, including Pearl Jam, The Dave Matthews Band, Kings of Leon, Lily Allen, John Legend, The Beastie Boys, The B-52s and Asleep at the Wheel. Purchase your ticket today!
