The event will be free and take place at the iconic ACL Live music venue. In addition to esports competition on stage, fans will experience an environment where FIFA, soccer, and music converge. There will be fan activations (FIFA open play areas, personalized FIFA Ultimate Team card station), Austin FC presence, merch giveaways, food/beverage, music, and more.
