Bonnaroo 2025 has officially been cancelled due to severe weather conditions. Forecasts from the National Weather Service predicted significant, steady precipitation that would worsen camping and exit conditions at the festival site, prompting organizers to discontinue the event for attendee safety.
Evacuation priorities focus first on campers in the worst conditions and those requiring accessibility assistance. Attendees in more stable campsites, including RVs and pre-pitched accommodations, are advised to remain overnight to allow a safer, coordinated evacuation the following day. Food vendors and health and safety services remain available in outer festival areas until the evacuation is complete.
The Bonnaroo community has taken to social media expressing heartbreak and empathy, with many noting the financial and personal impacts of the cancellation â including disrupted plans such as weddings.
Refund procedures will be communicated soon by festival organizers committed to supporting their community through this difficult situation.
This marks another severe weather-related halt for Bonnaroo, following the 2021 cancellation caused by flooding from Hurricane Ida. For updates and refund info, fans should visit the official Bonnaroo website.
As Bonnaroo attendees regroup, excitement builds for other impending events like Austin City Limits festival.
