<p>Someone just told me UT students get to go to ACL for free. Is this true??</p>
<p>Also, do UT kids get discounts to SXSW.</p>
<p>And does the university ever hold spring or fall concerts on campus like other schools?</p>
<p>Thanks</p>
<p>Not true. There is no free anything or discounts unless you are a volunteer or something. I know one person who got in ACL for free but I dont remember why.</p>
<p>There is a student badge for sxsw but it’s still expensive - $300+ and it’s only for movies.</p>
<p>There was a free Gavin Degraw concert this year on campus in front of the tower in the fall. He played with Ace Enders.</p>
<p>You are better off waiting until your favorite artists come to Austin and getting tickets to their shows if you don’t want to pay a ton. I paid as low as $12 the most I’ve paid is $22 but it was worth it. =)</p>
<p>Thanks.</p>
<p>So UT doesn’t have like a spring festival or a fall homecoming thing?</p>
<p>Supposedly theres one day when students can get ACL tickets for like 20$ but i missed it. I found ACL totally worth the money last year but the 3-day passes are already sold out. There is music on campus every so often. You just have to be aware of stuff going on. Gavin DeGraw was much better than I expected. And UT has speakers and movies but not as much music on campus. 40 acres fest is in the spring. Organizations do stuff during the day and then there’s a band at night. This year the headliner was clap your hands say yeah.</p>
