Bonnaroo Festival Rescheduled for June 2021 After 2020 Cancellation

There will be no Bonnaroo in 2020.

In March, the Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival, which was slated to take place June 11–14, was rescheduled for Sept. 24–27 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

On June 24, Bonnaroo announced that it cancelled the 2020 festival via a statement on its website: “Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival will not take place this September 24-27, 2020 as originally rescheduled. Our annual time together on the Farm is nothing short of magical, but out of an abundance of caution and for the health and safety of all Bonnaroovians, artists, staff, partners and our community, this is a necessary reality. More information on lineup, camping and accommodations will be available at a later date.”

The original artist lineup for 2020, which boasted more than 100 acts, featured a handful of country-centric performers, including Jason Isbell, Morgan Wallen, Mandolin Orange, Orville Peck, Yola and more.

The 2021 Bonnaroo Music and Arts Festival will take place June 17–20 at Great Stage Park, the 700-acre farm and event space located just 60 miles south of Nashville in Manchester, Tenn.
