A Reddit user’s photo of a t-shirt reading “I WENT TO BONNAROO AND ALL I SAW WAS REBECCA BLACK’S DJ SET” went viral in the r/bonnaroo community, triggering waves of humor and nostalgia over Bonnaroo 2025’s most unexpected highlight.
Rebecca Black, who transitioned from viral pop star to DJ, performed a set on the brand-new Infinity Stage Thursday night. This three-dome open-air venue with 360° spatial audio aimed to redefine the festival experience and drew a diverse crowd eager to witness fresh sounds and visuals.
Fans reacted with jokes and curiosity, with many festivalgoers debating the surprise factor and overall vibe of her set. The shirt sparked requests for where to buy memorabilia, capturing the quirky spirit and memorable moments that make Bonnaroo unique.
Bonnaroo 2025’s lineup boasted big names including Luke Combs, Olivia Rodrigo, Avril Lavigne, and Vampire Weekend, with Infinity Stage sets from Arooj Aftab, Big Gigantic (DJ Set), Photay, Saxsquatch, and Washed Out adding depth to the schedule.
Unfortunately, severe weather forced a festival shutdown on Friday, June 13, upon suspending performances and evacuating areas to prioritize safety, a reminder of the challenges outdoor events face.
Despite the early closure, Rebecca Black’s DJ set remains a standout memory, emblematic of Bonnaroo’s blend of innovation, surprise, and legendary festival culture.
