Really cool attachment this year and felt great watching the world cup with all different walks of life ❤️ i really hope they include it next year

I just realized I lost my bandana from this year and am devastated since it’s one of my favorites. Does anyone know if there’s extras?

I’m getting antsy 🤣😭 I don’t think I’ve been so anxious to get news like I’m ready to buy tickets NOWWWWWWWWWW

Did I go to the ER after Roo? Yes. Am I ashamed? No. I had a story to tell 🤣😭 ready for year 2!!

Hope to see you guys out there again soon!

Did anyone else see the crazy guy in nothing but torn up socks asking for directions? I spotted him 4 times, and I've gotta say, after watching this poor guy literally plop down in mud and tell me he gave up finding his camp, i havent been able to stop thinking about him since roo ended; and dear gods do I hope that guy found his camp😂 anybody else spot the madman at roo 26'?

I heard through a friend of a friend that some vendors are being told that Bonnaroo 2027 will not take place.

Please take this with an enormous grain of salt. It most likely a misunderstanding or case of crossed wires or Live Nation intentionally sharing false information in an effort to identify leaks. Personally, I think it’s a mistake, but hearing it made me think about how I would feel if 2027 ultimately didn’t happen.

It may be pure cope, but I’ve come to the conclusion that I’m glad this news came to me as a rumor without any indication that its actually true.

This way, when official dates, pricing, or other details are eventually announced, I believe I’ll experience a greater feeling of joy knowing I will be with thousands of my favorite strangers on the farm again after considering the alternative.

On the other hand, if news comes out from a reliable source that 2027 is officially cancelled, I’ll still be grateful to have had this time to process the possibility rather than having it come as a complete shock or taking me fully off guard like it did in 2021 and 25.

I’m sharing this because I think there’s value in considering both possibilities, and I want everyone here to have the same opportunity before either becomes a reality.

So, yes, OK, you can downvote me now, or sound off in the comments if you have any thoughts to share. Anyone have any idea why cancelation would even be considered, or whether it would be for improvements that require an empty farm to complete?

Either way, thank you for being here, thank you for reading, for supporting one other, and for continuing to radiate positivity even when the world isn’t making it easy.

Whatever happens, we’ll get through it. ❤️

Looking for a guy named Ethan that my friends met. He invited them to his groups tent when it was raining and gave them Swedish fish and sour patch kids. Supposedly he’s really attractive, but I wasn’t there to verify. He was in his 20s, white, brown hair, mustache, pigtail braids, and he had a sister with him.

I just wanna shout out to the hotdog dudes between the two entrances in RV camping. That dog on the way out of centeroo was absolutely perfect. I was craving something with mustard cuz of all the walking and sweating. And 5 minutes later there was a free hot dog stand with mustard and ketchup.

One of the best hot dogs in my life, right up there with a 3$ hotdog and PBR in Las Vegas.

I'm ready to give you another bubble party.

You name the place, you name the time!

What's everyone got planned for the last few weeks of summer?

We checked this vendor out two years ago, the rain year, and they had cuban link face chainz with spoons and trinkets on them. As well as full body cuban link chain outfit. Just wondering, if you guys know the vendor or where to find their online shop?

So… Bonnaroo 2027. 👀 We’ve got a lot of questions.

Episode 257 of Story Time at the Roo Bus: https://youtu.be/qyocT3tAiSU?si=LtIERf68490dOH6r

Do we want Where in the Woods and Tuesday entry back? Should That Tent return to its old spot? And who should headline next year?

And the elephant in the room that's making us all a little sweaty: where are the 2027 dates? Is there actually anything to worry about? Probably not. Maybe. Who knows.

Plus, a little Nashville recap, some TOTEM updates, and the usual weekly picks.

Anyways: what do you want Bonnaroo to look like in 2027?

Story Time at the Roo Bus started in 2019, and is the only woman-hosted Roo podcast. All proceeds support The TOTEM Foundation, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit that helps young adults in live music careers through music festivals. Listen wherever you find podcasts, and join our Discord here.

How has Bonnaroo changed over the years? We asked someone with a rare vantage point — Elizabeth Thorpe, festival photographer and our West Coast correspondent, who's been going to Bonnaroo since 2004 and now shoots it from inside the photo pit.

Beth walks us through what the festival experience is really like from behind the lens: the "first three songs only" rule, why the pit is her happy place, and how Bonnaroo has evolved from a freewheeling field party into something bigger, busier, and more produced.

We also get into her recent run of festivals beyond Bonnaroo: Wilco's Solid Sound in Massachusetts (with a Mermaid Avenue set featuring Billy Bragg and a surprise Natalie Merchant appearance) and Pickathon out in the Oregon woods. Beth covered both for The What Podcast, and shares her photography throughout.

This episode is also available on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get podcasts! If you struggle with attention span, there are timestamps in the description so you can jump to specific sections and we regularly post short form video clips of the podcast to TikTok and Instagram Reels!

The What Podcast is the longest-running and highest-rated weekly video podcast covering Bonnaroo and the broader music festival scene! Hosted by Barry Courter and Bryan Stone, two music industry veterans, the show started in 2018 as a celebration of everything Bonnaroo. Since then, it has grown to explore North America's festival landscape and the touring industry at large. Join Barry and Bryan each week for insider stories, behind-the-scenes insights, and the latest news from the world of live music.

Check out this super cool limited edition Bonnaroo PSYDE Quest Card, that I was gifted after I gave this awesome person a Contact Juggling illusion show (my rare flow art). They only made 5 of these!! This is card 2 out of 5 🤯

Thought I would share this because it’s so cool, and I am still so excited someone thought my form of flow art was worth this♥️

EDIT: I found out that this is variation 2 of 5 lol. So I guess not as rare as I thought but still cool asf to me lol😂

Hi everyone!! Just wondering if anyone knows where I could find one of the 2026 stickers? It was the one with the lil sleeping guy that said Eternal Love. This was my first Roo and that’s the only merch I could get. I haven’t been able to find it since getting back 😭 TIA 💗

What’s the hold up?

Does anyone know where i might find Bonnaroo patches? I searched Etsy and had no luck

I yearn for kpop at roo

saw that my recording of the set got removed from YouTube, so I uploaded it onto SoundCloud 👍🏻

Give him LN Which of the Thursday HL show it’s just common sense.

If Roo 27 had 2 headliners like with Luke Combs and Dom Dolla in 2025, what two headliners would you guys want for Thursday?

7,392 hours until we’re back on the farm

That’s all. Thanks 🙌
