American Sign Language interpreters have been a part of the Austin City Limits Music Festival for several years, and 2022 was no different.
This year, Austin-based Amber G Productions provided ASL interpreting services and staffing. According to ACL Fest organizer C3 Presents, 2022 was the second year the vendor interpreted at the festival.
“Since 2014, Amber G Productions has sourced sign language interpreters who specialize in music performance work,” a C3 spokesperson said. “They use a mixture of local talent and outside talent to try and bring about the most equality to the experience with native signers and highly certified interpreters from various backgrounds and cultures.”
ACL Fest organizers said there were 14 ASL interpreters working at the festival this year.

Just read about the ASL interpreters at Austin City Limits and it's great to see events becoming more accessible! I was looking for a calculator for concrete to plan a DIY project and stumbled upon calculator for concrete which is pretty cool, but I digress. It's awesome that ACL Fest had 14 ASL interpreters this year, making the experience more inclusive for everyone.
I was reading about the Austin City Limits Music Festival and how they're making efforts to be more inclusive, like having ASL interpreters on site. If you're interested in learning more about how margin is calculated for events like this, it's pretty interesting to see how organizers balance costs. Anyway, kudos to ACL for having 14 ASL interpreters this year, that's really cool!
