By comparison, only 15% of ACL Festival attendees live that far away from Austin.

This is compared to $170 for Austin City Limits and $224 for Lollapalooza. Despite the premium, the more expensive passes for the show's second day on September 24 are the most popular choice. The average price of those tickets is $994, compared to the first day average price of $822. The preference may be due to second day's lineup, which includes fan favorites Lady Gaga and Kenny Chesney.
