There will be an Austin City Limits Festival this year, but it won't be at Zilker Park like normal.

Chief Operating Officer Emmett Beliveau of C3 Presents, the production company that puts on the yearly festival, said “we are working on a very special virtual festival weekend for all of you," Austin 360 reported. Beliveau made the announcement during a livestream event for the Health Alliance for Austin Musicians.

Beliveau didn't give any further details about the online ACL Fest. C3 helped organize this year's Lollapalooza, which was livestreamed for free on YouTube. The production company has also been busy with other virtual concerts, like Megan Thee Stallion, who had a live show broadcasted online at the end of August.

Austin City Limits canceled the in-person festival earlier this year before it released its lineup.
