The 2025 Bonnaroo map drop has stirred buzz with several key updates that promise to reshape the festival footprint:
- Ultra-Premium Cabanas: Located in the Bee World area near The Mound, these replace last year’s bleacher seating, offering a luxe vibe but sparking debate over price and placement.
- Map Orientation Tweaks: With Centeroo and Outer Roo areas now differently oriented, attendees should prep for some navigation adjustments.
- Tree Coverage Doubled: The map shows 48 trees versus 26 in 2024, likely meaning more shade and improved aesthetics.
- Infinity Stage Debut: A highlight is the new 360° spatial audio Infinity Stage featuring a three-dome, open-air design with synchronized lighting—Bonnaroo is pushing immersive experiences to the next level.
- Vendor Upgrades: Returning favorites like Liquid Death spots are joined by newcomers such as Snake & Jake’s Love Shack near Planet Roo.
Community reactions are mixed—enthusiasm for the enhanced stages and greenery counters skepticism about the pricier VIP cabanas. Overall, Bonnaroo 2025 looks like it’s dialing up its environment and experience.
Reminder: The festival runs June 12-15, 2025, in Manchester, Tennessee, headlined by Luke Combs and Olivia Rodrigo. Get ready for a fresh take on this beloved tradition.
