Thanks to the remnants of Hurricane Ida, the Bonnaroo 2021 Music & Arts Festival has been canceled. While it doesn’t make the news any easier process now, promoters have announced the show is on for June of 2022.
Initially, organizers had announced the intention to scale back camping, but the property is too under water to move forward. According to an email sent to prospective concertgoers, Centeroo is waterlogged while the ground is saturated on their tollbooth paths to the point it’s unsafe to drive or park vehicles.
A lot of work goes into throwing an event of this magnitude. Those on the ground have done everything in their power to move the show forward but they’ve run out of options and time. It sounds like they’re doing everyone a favor because spending the weekend in a mud pit (before people even get there) is a real drag.
Anyone who purchased tickets will be refunded in a little as 30 days at the point of purchase through Front Gate Tickets. For more updates and announcements, visit the Bonnaroo website or follow along on Twitter.
