Bonnaroo in Manchester, TN is not currently confirmed to be running. Froligo tracks its status, history and similar festivals still happening.
What happened to Bonnaroo?
After storms hit two editions in a row (the 2025 festival was cancelled mid-weekend for torrential rain, and heavy rain fell on the Sunday of the June 2026 edition), the organizers announced that Bonnaroo will take a year off in 2027 to let The Farm, particularly the main venue, rest and recover. A 2028 return has been reported in the press but is not stated in the organizers’ announcement.
It last ran in 2026.

The experience
Last time around (2026)
The 2026 edition ran June 11-14 on the Manchester farm and was widely seen as a strong return, with larger crowds, a top-to-bottom lineup and a positivity-fueled atmosphere despite some rain. It followed a prior edition that had been disrupted by weather.
What's special
Bonnaroo is a four-day music and arts festival on a 700-acre farm in Manchester, Tennessee, known for its all-genre lineup, immersive on-site camping and a communal, good-vibes culture often compared to a modern-day Woodstock.
What people love
Attendees celebrate the positive, communal atmosphere, the sprawling farm and camping experience, and a deep all-genre lineup, with many pointing to the community itself as the highlight.

Getting there
How do I get to Bonnaroo?
By car
Most people drive to Bonnaroo. Check current road and traffic conditions before you set off, and see parking below.
By train
No direct passenger rail to the venue was found. Drive, fly in, or use a shuttle instead.
By bus & public transit
Regular intercity coach service from Greyhound's main Nashville station (709 Rep. John Lewis Way South) to a Manchester stop (Shell station, 617 Woodbury Hwy, Manchester TN 37355). 4 daily departures, first bus 6:25am, last 10:00pm. This drops riders in Manchester town, several miles from The Farm itself, a taxi/rideshare or pre-arranged ride is still needed for the final leg to the venue.
Book / infoFestival shuttle
Official festival-branded shuttle direct from Nashville International Airport (BNA) to a drop-off on South First Avenue inside Bonnaroo (between Woodland and Production Roads). Operates Thursday, Friday, and Monday only, no Saturday/Sunday service. Riders book against their inbound flight time. Bonnaroo advises arriving at BNA no later than 9pm Thursday or 2pm Friday. Monday return buses run hourly from 6am, last departure from the festival at 1pm.
Book / infoSeparate official shuttle product for attendees basing themselves in Nashville rather than flying directly, not airport-specific, but relevant to BNA fly-in attendees who want a downtown staging point. Departs twice daily from the Nashville Fairgrounds (625 Smith Avenue, Nashville TN 37203), with free parking there for pass holders, and returns twice nightly from Bonnaroo. Requires a separate Bonnaroo festival ticket.
Book / infoTaxi & rideshare
Uber and Lyft both operate in Nashville and at BNA (Uber picks up Ride App Zones B & C, Lyft Zone A, both via the Ground Transportation Center on Level 1 of Terminal Garage 2). Bonnaroo's own guidance is that rideshare for the full BNA-to-venue leg is workable but inconvenient: Manchester's small-town roads get heavy festival traffic, few rideshare cars serve the area, and there is no priority lane for rideshare at the tollbooths (campers are prioritized), which can mean long waits. Bonnaroo's advice is to book a ride in advance or rent a car instead. If dropped off, use 2465 New Bushy Branch Rd, Manchester, TN 37355 to be routed to the East Tollbooth.
Book / infoTaxis and rideshare such as Uber and Lyft can be limited near the venue, especially late at night or in rural areas. Agree a pickup point and time in advance and keep a backup plan.
🅿 Parking
On site parking available. Cost Tiered, buy-early-and-save pricing. Directly confirmed on the official page: price steps up to $65 on 13 March 2026, and anyone who arrives without a pre-purchased pass is charged $95 at the tollbooth. Prepay via Bonnaroo's own site or Front Gate Tickets. No official rideshare-only drop zone distinct from day parking was found; rideshare drop-offs use the East Tollbooth address noted in airport_transport above.
