Your Guide to Bonnaroo 2024
It’s Bonnaroo time, y’all! Over 80,000 fans will flock to a farm outside Manchester, TN this weekend to catch massive acts like Megan Thee Stallion and buzzy newcomers like Chappell Roan at one of the nation’s biggest music festivals. Host Grace Fuisz is joined by WNXP’s Events and Promotions Director Emily Young — the biggest Bonnaroo enthusiast we know — to get the scoop on this year’s can’t-miss artists, as well as tips and tricks for newbies (hydrate!) and how, after two decades, the festival has outgrown its “hippie-dippie” roots. Thanks to Tecovas, our Western wear faves, for being our exclusive launch sponsor!
