LoneStar Casino at Austin City Limits 2026: What We’re Bringing to ACL

We’re heading to Austin during Austin City Limits 2026 for both festival weekends, bringing music, giveaways, special guests and plenty of LoneStar spirit to Barton Springs Road.

This year, we’re making ourselves at home at Oria’s, right on one of the main routes toward the festival. It’ll be our home base for the weekends, with food, drinks, music and plenty happening for anyone who wants to stop by before carrying on with their day.

If you’re joining us in Austin, we’d love to see you. Here’s where to find LoneStar and what we’ve got planned.

Find LoneStar at Oria’s During ACL

For both weekends of Austin City Limits, you’ll find LoneStar at Oria’s on Barton Springs Road, and y’all are more than welcome to come say hello.

Oria’s sits right along the route into the festival, making it an easy place to drop in before you head toward the music.

Come cool off, grab a bite, listen to some tunes and spend a little time with us. We’ll have food, drinks, giveaways and more than a few LoneStar surprises waiting.

Think of Oria’s as your friendly LoneStar stop on the road to the festival.

Austin Music, Good Vibes and Your Song Picks

It wouldn’t be an Austin festival weekend without plenty of good music.

We’ll have a dedicated DJ setup at Oria’s throughout both weekends, giving you somewhere to settle in, grab a drink and enjoy the atmosphere before heading toward the festival.

And the playlist won’t be completely out of your hands either.

You’ll be able to request a song while you’re with us, so if there’s a track you reckon the whole place needs to hear, send it our way.

Bring a good pick and you might just hear it while you’re hanging out with us.

Weekend 1 at Oria’s

We’re kicking things off with a full weekend of LoneStar fun at Oria’s.

Drop by for music, food and drinks, giveaways, Spin to Win, the LoneStar sticker wall and plenty happening throughout the day.

Whether you’re heading toward the festival or just spending the day around Austin, come make yourself at home with the LoneStar crew for a while.

And don’t worry about rushing off. We’ll be there from 12 PM to 7 PM on both Friday and Saturday.

Meet Max McNown During Weekend 2

We’ve got a special guest joining the LoneStar crew for Weekend 2.

Max McNown is set to stop by Oria’s, bringing even more music energy to our second weekend in Austin.

His LoneStar appearance will include a one-hour meet and greet for 40 fans, along with a signed guitar sweepstake and plenty of content from his time with us.

We’ll share more about how you can get involved as the weekend gets closer, so keep an eye on LoneStar for the latest details.

If you’re a Max McNown fan, this is one you’ll want on your radar.

Everyone’s a Winner at Spin to Win

Fancy giving it a spin?

We’ll have three digital Spin to Win wheels waiting at Oria’s, with something up for grabs every time.

Once you’re checked in, give the touchscreen a tap and see what you land on. Prizes include LoneStar merch, food vouchers and beer.

The current prize lineup includes cowboy hats, bandanas, hand fans, collapsible water bottles, wristlet phone holders and poker-chip keyrings, along with food vouchers.

We are in Texas, after all. It’d feel wrong not to have a cowboy hat somewhere in the mix.

Peel Back the LoneStar Sticker Wall

Keep an eye out for our LoneStar sticker wall while you’re at Oria’s.

The wall starts covered in stickers, with a LoneStar scene waiting underneath. As more people peel them away, more of the image is revealed.

Flip your sticker over and you’ll find a QR code, with prizes ranging from 1 to 5 SC, plus one sticker worth 100 SC and a top sticker worth 1,000 free SC.

So go ahead and peel one back. You never know what might be waiting underneath.

Catch a LoneStar Pedicab on Your Way to the Festival

Austin festival days can mean a fair bit of walking, and sometimes your boots deserve a break.

That’s where our 10 LoneStar-branded pedicabs come in.

Five will run between downtown Austin and Oria’s, while another five will take people from Oria’s toward the festival entrance. They’re expected to keep rolling until midnight, so you’ll still be seeing a little LoneStar around Austin long after we wrap things up at Oria’s for the day.

If you spot one, give us a wave. Better yet, hop in and enjoy the ride.

There’s a Pretty Big Prize Up for Grabs Too

Music isn’t the only thing we’ve got planned for Weekend 2.

The draw is planned for Saturday, October 10, and we’ll share the confirmed entry details and timing once everything is finalized.

So keep an eye on LoneStar before the weekend. You won’t want to miss this one.

LoneStar Will Be All Over Austin

And the LoneStar fun won’t stop at the doors of Oria’s.

We’ll have creators from around Austin joining us across both weekends, sharing moments from music, food, lifestyle, tourism, comedy, gaming and more.

10 creators are already confirmed for Weekend 1, with another eight planned for Weekend 2, plus an additional group of local micro-creators getting involved during the second weekend.

So if you can’t be there with us in person, there’ll still be plenty of Austin moments to follow from wherever you are.

Come Say Howdy in Austin

Two weekends, one of Austin’s biggest festival seasons and plenty of reasons to stop by and spend a little time with LoneStar.

If you’re heading to Austin City Limits this October, come find us at Oria’s on Barton Springs Road. We’d be mighty glad to see you.

Grab some food, listen to a few tunes, meet the crew, join in with the giveaways and make yourself at home for a while.

And if you’re following from home, come along for the ride on social. We’ll be sharing photos, videos, behind-the-scenes moments and plenty more from our time in Austin.

See y’all in Austin. Come say howdy if you spot us.
