Blues on the Green almost didn't happen this year.

ACL Radio had initially canceled the event in January, saying that rising costs to produce the free event "present[ed] too big of a hurdle."

However, the Austin City Council stepped in and approved Council Member Natasha Harper-Madison's Resolution 23, which made the city of Austin a co-sponsor of the event.

H-E-B also stepped in and increased financial support.

Blues on the Green began over three decades ago as a summer concert series at the Arboretum.

The event has grown in recent years, attracting thousands of Austin residents to Zilker Park every summer.
