Austin City Limits has just released the lineup for the 2017 rendition of the two-weekend festival which takes place at Zilker Park on Oct. 6-8 and Oct. 13-15. At the top of the bill are Jay Z, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Chance The Rapper, The Killers and Gorillaz.

The Chili Peppers are fast becoming a staple on the festival scene, performing at last year’s Lollapalooza in Chicago and making appearances at this year’s Bonnaroo and Summerfest in Milwaukee. Chance The Rapper, who recently cancelled a series of performances on the European music festival circuit, has also quickly become a go-to festival performer. On the flip side, The Killers, Jay Z and Gorillaz, all of whom tend to be a bit less prevalent on the festival scene, should bring a bit of excitement to the Texas-based event.

Joining the above artists on this year’s Austin City Limits lineup are The XX, Martin Garrix, Ice Cube, Solange, Ryan Adams, Run The Jewels, The Head and the Heart, Spoon, Portugal. The Man, Bonobo, Foster The People, Crystal Castles, The Revivalists, Mutemath, O.A.R., Benjamin Booker, Thundercat, Lukas Nelson & Promise of the Real and more.

Tickets for both weekends of the three-day festival are available now. See below for the complete lineup and visit ACL’s official website for more information and to pick up tickets.
