ACL Fest: Do-it-All App for Austin City Limits Attendees

ACL Fest iPhone app

If you’re lucky enough to be attending the Austin City Limits music festival in (my lovely hometown of) Austin, Texas this weekend, then you may want to pick up the ACL Fest app to help you make the most of it. Here’s a little of its App Store intro:

This is the official app for the Austin City Limits Music Festival being held in Zilker Park in Austin, October 8-10. It is your official electronic guide to the festival! Organize and expand your festival experience in one handy app. Create your schedule, read about the bands, browse media and find your way around Zilker Park.

And details on some of its notable features:

– Full Lineup: See every artist and where they are playing. Add filters by day and/or stage to drill down to what you want to see. Sort by name or time in any view. Add or remove artists from your schedule with one touch.
– My Schedule: See your customized schedule organized by day and remove artists with a single touch.
– Now Playing: View all artists playing within the next two hours.
– Artist Info: Click on any artist in any list and read their bio, watch videos, go to the artist web site or go to iTunes to download their latest release.
– Map: See a zoomable/scrollable map of the entire event. Click on a stage to go to the lineup view for that stage. During the Festival, see who is playing each stage on the current day.
– Sync: Pull down your custom schedule from aclfestival.com using either the web site login or a Facebook login. Want to push your iPhone schedule back up to the website? You can do that too.
– Lighter: Click the small flame in the upper right corner to bring up a virtual lighter to hold up during those special performances you can’t live without.

This looks like top-notch app if you’re making it to ACL this year. You can find ACL Fest in the App Store now, and it’s a free app.
