MoodRadius FAQ
Short answers about the ACL 2026 set-time planner.
What is MoodRadius?
MoodRadius is an independent set-time planner for Austin City Limits Music Festival 2026. You pick your moods or genres and how far you will walk between stages, and it builds a set-by-set day plan with walk times and backup picks.
Which ACL 2026 weekends does MoodRadius cover?
MoodRadius covers both ACL 2026 weekends at Zilker Park: Weekend One (October 2-4) and Weekend Two (October 9-11). Set times come from the published festival schedule and are checked by a person before they appear on the site.
How does MoodRadius decide which sets to put in my plan?
MoodRadius scores every set with fixed rules, not a chatbot. Each set is scored on how well it matches the moods and genres you chose, in the order you ranked them, plus any artists you named and your must-sees; then it picks a route that respects your walking limit and the walk time between stages. The same answers always produce the same plan.
Can artists or sponsors pay to be recommended?
No. There is no paid placement, sponsorship weighting, or artist promotion in the scoring, and no one can pay for a higher score.
Do I need an account to use MoodRadius?
No account or email is needed. Your plan is saved in your browser and works offline once it has loaded.
Can I add my ACL plan to my calendar or share it with friends?
Yes. Apple Calendar gets one file with every set, and Google Calendar gets a MoodRadius ACL 2026 calendar you subscribe to. You can share a plan by link or PDF, and Group shows where each friend will be by stage or in a grid.
