Luck Presents reveals lineup for 2023 Luck Reunion

Luck Presents has announced this year’s lineup for the 11th annual Luck Reunion. Celebrated as one of the most joyous musical events of the year, Luck Reunion will return to Willie Nelson’s famed Luck, TX on Thursday, March 16th.

The event will feature more than 35 acts, culinary experiences with renowned chefs from across the nation, local artisans and one of a kind merchandise. Luck Reunion remains an iconic opportunity for fans to experience live music from the backyard of the Red Headed Stranger himself.

Willie Nelson and Family will headline along with performances by Elvie Shane, Particle Kid, The War And Treaty, and others.

“Team Luck is thrilled to welcome a diverse lineup of performers to Willie’s backyard, including fresh new talent and some familiar faces who have been longtime members of the Luck Family,” festival organizers share.

Luck Presents is partnering with environmental nonprofit REVERB to drastically slash carbon emissions at their events during SXSW. As part of their Music Decarbonization Project, an effort to directly cut the music industry’s carbon footprint, REVERB is funding solar-powered battery systems that will replace carbon-intensive diesel generators.

A new addition to the festival this year is The Bread & Roses Community Conversations Stage, hosting three engaging discussions throughout the day. Moderated conversations between musicians, activists, chefs, and local family farmers will include Celebrating Indigenous Foodways and Food Sovereignty, The Role of the Artist in Advancing Social Justice, and Family Farmers: Leading the Way with Equity, Food, and Climate Solutions. With intentional learning and community engagement in mind, The Bread & Roses Community Conversations Stage embraces cultural exchanges across industries and alongside fans.

Fans have a chance to win the chance to purchase tickets to the Reunion in-person at Lucky Draw Live, an event at Antone’s Nightclub in Austin, Texas on Saturday, February 25th at 8 pm CST. The event will feature performances by Beau Bedford and Robert Eliis & Friends.
