Jim Henson's Labyrinth: In Concert 40th Anniversary

Jim Henson's Labyrinth: In Concert 40th Anniversary comes to ACL Live at The Moody Theater on Sunday, November 1, 2026. It's a tribute to the 1986 collaboration between Jim Henson and David Bowie, arriving just as the film hits its 40th anniversary.

The setup is straightforward: the full movie plays on a massive HD screen while a live rock band, synth, percussion, and lighting effects play along. The music and lights are timed to the film, so the whole thing functions as a live score rather than a separate concert. The organizers describe it as a way to transport the audience to Goblin City, fusing the movie and the live music into one experience.

If you've seen Labyrinth a dozen times, this is a different way to revisit it. Instead of the soundtrack running from a speaker, you'll have a full band on stage providing the music in real time, with the lighting effects shifting to match what's happening on screen. It's the movie you know, just played out in a theater with a live band instead of a living room with a DVD player.

It all goes down at ACL Live at The Moody Theater in Austin on Sunday, November 1, starting at 8 PM.
