Imagine a music festival without all the sweat and overpriced water bottles.

That dream becomes a reality tonight, with the Austin City Limits music fest being streamed for free on YouTube the whole weekend.

The streams will consist of past performances of artists from Khalid to Paul McCartney at ACL.

35 Shows will be streamed

Matthew McConaughey, who has been spotted jamming to artists such as Jay-Z and Billie Eilish at the festival, will be making a special guest appearance as well.

The first round of shows starts tonight at 7 p.m. Central Time with Billie Eilish's 2019 performance being the headlining event.

The in-person 2020 ACL festival in Zilker Park had to cancel in July because of the coronavirus pandemic.

The Austin Parks Foundation does assure festival-goers that the massive music festival will return in October 2021 and will celebrate its 20-year anniversary.

Those who bought tickets for this year's event do have the option of using them at next year's festival or returning them for a refund.
