Same Time, Same Place, Lower Capacity For Bonnaroo In 2026

After a month of scrutiny, surveys and soul-searching, Bonnaroo announced the show will go on in 2026 on its traditional weekend and at The Farm, but some changes to camping will cut back capacity.

After torrential rain and ensuing flooding forced the Manchester, Tennessee C3 Presents festival to cancel during Day Two of the 2025 edition — the second weather-driven cancellation in four years — organizers began a round of surveys of festivalgoers, asking about changing the weekend — possibly into the fall — or the venue. As it stands, neither will change. Bonnaroo 2026 is scheduled for June 11 to 14 on The Farm, per an announcement on Instagram.

There will, however, be some changes.

“Campsites in areas most affected by flooding will not be utilized,” the post read. “This will result in a reduced capacity on The Farm.”

In addition, camping entry and programming in the Outeroo area will now begin on Wednesday. An “epic welcome party” will take place at the What Stage Thursday with the other main Centeroo stages programmed Friday to Sunday.

The Infinity Stage — an immersive, 360-degree “audio experience” — that debuted in 2025 will be replaced by the Where In The Woods UFO stage, which will move to Centeroo, featuring “late night DJs and dance parties.” The Where In The Woods space will “continue to serve as a relaxation haven.”

During the offseason, The Farm will undergo a “multi-million dollar” upgrade, which will focus on the most floodprone areas and include reseeding and improvements to access roads and drainage and runoff systems.
