About Bonnaroo 2026
Bonnaroo is a four-day camping music festival on a farm outside Manchester, Tennessee, about 60 miles southeast of Nashville. From June 11 to 14, 2026, roughly 700 acres of Great Stage Park turn into a temporary city of stages and tents — and the music genuinely does not stop after the headliners finish.
2026 puts one headliner on each night, and they could not be more different: Skrillex opens Thursday, The Strokes take Friday, RÜFÜS DU SOL own Saturday, and Noah Kahan closes it Sunday. EDM, garage rock, melodic house and folk-pop on a single wristband is the whole point of Bonnaroo.
The trip is a commitment — most fans camp on-site for all four days and walk everywhere. If a tent is not your trip, Manchester has a small cluster of hotels minutes from the gate, and Murfreesboro, 35 miles up I-24, is the established overflow base with a festival shuttle. Below are the picks for both, every one sourced.
Venue: Great Stage Park
Great Stage Park — "the Farm" — is a roughly 700-acre outdoor event site in Manchester, Tennessee that hosts the Bonnaroo Music and Arts Festival each June.

Bonnaroo 2026 Weekend Planning Blueprint
Bonnaroo is a planning festival as much as a music festival.
- Pick your pass before prices climb. Bonnaroo uses tiered pricing that steps up as the festival nears — decide between a four-day camping pass and a single-day ticket and buy through bonnaroo.com early.
- Decide camp or hotel honestly. Most attendees camp on-site; if that is not you, book a Manchester hotel or a Murfreesboro hotel on the shuttle route months ahead, because close-in rooms sell out.
- Fly into Nashville. Nashville International (BNA) is the nearest major airport, roughly 60 miles from the Farm — the practical gateway for out-of-state fans.
- Plan at least one off-site meal. Pack a cooler, but bookmark Manchester spots like Jiffy Burger and Common John Brewing for a real meal away from the crowds.
- Build your schedule around the headliners. With one headliner per night, check the daily schedule and the After Hours sets so you do not miss the act you came for.
Who This Event Fits Best
Bonnaroo rewards a specific kind of traveler.
- The genre omnivore. Your ideal weekend runs from Skrillex on Thursday to Noah Kahan on Sunday with The Strokes and RÜFÜS DU SOL in between. A lineup that refuses to pick a lane is the feature.
- The full-immersion camper. You want to sleep on-site, walk everywhere, and catch a sunrise set instead of an alarm. The four-day camping pass is built for you.
- The comfort-first fan. You love the music but not the tent. Book a Manchester hotel for the short drive, or base in Murfreesboro and ride the shuttle.
- The group organizer. You travel with a carload of friends — one car-camping pass covers the vehicle, and single-day tickets let people join for just their headliner.
- Maybe sit this one out if… heat, mud, crowds and four nights away from air conditioning sound like a bad time. Bonnaroo in mid-June is hot and physical.
