Bonnaroo makes return this weekend

The Bonnaroo Music and Arts Festival is set to make its return this week after spending the off-season making changes around The Farm.

After canceling the music festival last year due to weather and ground conditions, organizers spent months conducting surveys, receiving feedback from attendees, and providing updates about what has changed on The Farm. These changes include improved drainage, miles of new roadways, and 135 acres of new turf.

While the forecast shows chances of scattered rain during the week, Bonnaroovians will be feeling the sun for a weekend of music and positivity.

What’s on the lineup?

Kicking off the positive vibes on Thursday, June 11, 2026, will be the “welcoming party” featuring the night’s headliner Skrillex, who will be making his return to The Farm since his last performance in 2014, as well as performances from Four Tet, Vince Staples and Spiritual Cramp.

Friday will be the first full day of music featuring performances from Turnstile, Griz, Mt. Joy, Yungblud, Geese, Lil Jon, Hot Mulligan, bbno$, The Dare, Wolfmother, and many more, followed by Friday night’s headliner The Strokes.

Saturday’s acts will include Teddy Swims, The Neighbourghood, Alabama Shakes, Rainbow Kitten Surprise, Amyl and the Sniffers, Boys Noize, Freddie Gibbs & the Alchemist, Gorgon City, Buffalo Traffic Jam, and more, with Rüfüs Du Sol taking the main stage Saturday night. Also set for Saturday will be the Bonnaroo staple: the SuperJam. This year’s SuperJam will be SuperJâm Esoteríca: The Alchemy of Pop presented by Kesha. Also on deck will be “Weird Al” Yankovic performing a special late-night Saturday set called “Bigger & Weirder Saturday Late Night Roovue.”

Closing out Bonnaroo are Kesha, Role Model, Tedeschi Trucks Band, Clipse, Daily Bread, Modest Mouse, Mariah the Scientist, Turnover, Spacey Jane, Lszee and more, with Noah Kahan closing down The Farm.

In addition, the much-beloved Bonnaroo bandanas will be back this year. 2026 will also see the long-awaited return of Bonnaroo Radio, providing exclusive programming like throwback Bonnaroo performances, interviews, traffic and weather updates, and more as fans arrive at the Farm and throughout the weekend.

Those who don’t want to miss out on Bonnaroo will be able to stream performances through Disney+ and Hulu throughout the weekend. As for those who want to attend but can’t stay all weekend, Bonnaroo is now offering 1-Day GA, GA+, VIP and Platinum Tickets as well as 2-Day GA Tickets. A variety of 1-Day, 2-Day, and 4-Day Tickets are on sale now, exclusively via bonnaroo.com.
