Look at what we have here! Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival (June 13-16, 2024) has finally graced us with their immaculate 2024 lineup. The Festive Owl has gotten many of us speculating for weeks now what the Manchester, Tennessee team has been working on behind the scenes. A couple of weeks ago, it was strongly hinted at who the headliners at least were going to be. And, of course, the insightful account was right. The undercard also has a lot for music lovers of all styles. Let’s dive in.
Artists
First, Bonnaroo 2024 is highlighting by a very special edition of the festival’s world-famous SuperJam. Set for Saturday, June 15 in That Tent, 2024’s all-star collaboration will be “Once More With Feeling(s) – The Dashboard Confessional Emo SuperJam,” with performances from special guests both announced and unannounced. It is this year’s session as a must-see celebration of community, showmanship, and unmatched musical adventure.
Just 50 miles from Nashville, Tennessee, you’ll be able to catch Pretty Lights, Fisher, Post Malone, Red Hot Chili Peppers, and Fred Again… For the first time in Bonnaroo history, the main stage will power up for a special Thursday night headline set, which will feature an incredible performance by Pretty Lights. Derek and the gang will also perform a second sunrise set on The Other Stage during the weekend. Pretty Lights will be performing a special show + production. After just wrapping up his Swirlbridge 2023 with three days at each stop, it’s only speculation for right now on what that may mean. But, we are here for it!
There is so much range on the 2024 lineup. We go from T-Pain who rocked an Electric Forest afternoon in 2019 with a FANTASTIC set to Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit. Joe Russo’s Almost Dead & Gary Clark Jr. on that Friday and Dr. Fresch. ISOXO is also performing and his buddy, Knock2 will surely be hopping around and having a great time during this performance. The infamous Oliver Heldens, Svdden Death, Hamdi, and LYNY will be bringing the bass on Thursday and Friday. So much going on here in a good way!
A fan favorite, Greensky Bluegrass will be there with Milky Chance on Sunday. Four Tet is surely going to be coming to support his buddy, Fred, on stage at some point. TSHA and Kasablanca will be bringing the energy along with Seven Lions. The fan favorite Disco Lines will also be there. It’s hard to focus on the lineup because one’s eyes keep going all over, observing the carefully picked artists for this summer must-be-at festival. Take a look at the whole poster below!

Community
Bonnaroo has maintained a unique commitment to local and regional issues since the festival’s very beginnings. Founded in 2009 as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, the Bonnaroo Works Fund (BWF) contributes to more than 100 local, regional, and national nonprofit partners benefiting the arts, education, environmental sustainability, and social impact, with a direct focus on local reinvestment and asset building. Nearly $10M in funding has been generated thus far, providing much-needed local support to Middle Tennessee, in particular Manchester and Coffee County communities.
One Final Note
Lastly, it’s important to mention this other tidbit that has come from Festive Owl as well. It looks like this will be the only Fred Again.. show that North America will be getting this year after a huge NA 2023 for him and his team.
