This year's Austin City Limits Festival has come to a close. More than a hundred artists played over six days for thousands of fans who braved the heat and dust to catch sets from their favorite performers.

The KUT and KUTX multimedia team were there every day, roaming the park, making photos and recording private performances. More than 60,000 images were taken, and 17 stripped-down, intimate backstage sessions were filmed. Below are some of our favorite photos from the second weekend.

Also, be sure to check out our photo post from Weekend One along with some before and after comparisons of the park. For more coverage be sure to visit our music station KUTX .
