PITCH YOUR TENT

Come June 15-18, tens of thousands of music fans will descend upon a 700acre farm in Manchester, Tennessee for this year’s Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival. Something of a contemporary version of the iconic 1969 Woodstock music fest, most Bonnaroo attendees will be camping out between performances. However, the camping here is greatly improved over what was offered at Max Yasgur’s upstate New York farm. The event’s Camping Plazas—Toyota Music Den, Galactic Giddy-Up, Zen Zone and others—are entertainment venues themselves with late-night karaoke, yoga sessions, panel discussions, marketplaces and a roster of more than 80 live music acts, as well as the requisite public Wi-Fi, showers, restrooms, first-aid stations and more. The fourday Bonnaroo lineup features dozens of acts on multiple stages and among the weekend’s headliners are Kendrick Lamar, Foo Fighters and Sheryl Crow.
