AUSTIN, Texas - Blues on the Green, the free summer concert series at Zilker Park, that has been an Austin tradition for over 30 years, is canceling its season for this coming summer.
ACL Radio, which produces the concert series, announced the cancelation on social media on Wednesday.
The radio station said that the rising costs to produce the free event "present too big of a hurdle."
