Austin City Limits
Allowed items
Recent editions cap small clutches and fanny packs at 6x9in with no more than one pocket, no clear material required; anything bigger must be a fully clear bag no larger than 12x6x12in. Small hydration packs are allowed with up to two extra pockets beyond the reservoir compartment, but must be empty going in. Hammocks, shade structures, and most wheeled items stay home along with the usual aerosol/glass/outside-drink bans — check the official list for your weekend, since specifics can shift edition to edition.
Use the official policy
Entry, bag, camping, and vehicle policies can be updated before an edition. Open the official source close to departure and make your own packing decision from that current policy.
Do not plan around loopholes
We do not publish prohibited-item workarounds. When an item is unclear, leave it out or contact the event directly.
