Inside the Merch Tent — Day 1
A quick snapshot from the artist merch tent on Day 1 at ACL Festival 2025. The photo (originally shared on r/aclfestival by u/linbad) shows rows of hanging tees, stacked tables of sizes, and crew sorting orders — a classic festival merch setup that mixes headliner staples with smaller-artist designs.
- Hanging display: a wall of tour and logo tees giving you an immediate sense of what’s in stock.
- Tables and crates: piles of folded shirts sorted by size, with a visible Gildan box in the stack — practical and efficient.
- Staff on deck: a small crew handling sales and restocks, plus a handful of customers browsing.
- Design trends: vintage washes, band logos, and on-tour date prints — nothing too wild, but plenty of festival-friendly options.
If you’re at ACL and hunting merch: get there early for the best sizes and prints — tents move stock fast on day one. We’ll keep scanning the feed for standout drops and merch moments across the festival.
