We want to hear from you

October 17, 2024, will mark 50 years to the day that Willie Nelson stepped onto Austin PBS’s Studio 6A wooden stage and recorded the pilot episode of Austin City Limits. Now, five decades and more than a thousand recordings later, we’re reflecting on what a truly special musical journey this has been. We want to hear what Austin City Limits has meant to you, our fans – the people who have made this whole thing possible.
