Music

Bonnaroo is back this year and set to take place in Manchester, TN on June 12-15th! This year’s festival features an exciting mix of top headliners including Dom Dolla, Hozier, Tyler the Creator, Olivia Rodrigo, Avril Lavigne, and Glass Animals. Get ready for an unforgettable experience with must-see performances, essential festival tips, and highlights you won’t want to miss.

Details & Transportation

The festival grounds are located less than an hour drive from Nashville and Chattanooga, and gates open at 11am each day. Carpooling and road-tripping with friends is highly recommended! While ride-share is still an option, Manchester is a small town with limited Uber and Lyft service, and might not be the most convenient way to get to the festival.
