Get ready for the Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival 2026, happening from June 11 to 14 on the 700-acre Bonnaroo Farm in Manchester, TN, just 60 miles southeast of Nashville. While Bonnaroo may not be the most metal-oriented festival, it does feature some notable heavier acts, including:
- Turnstile, who will be headlining the first day – a well-deserved spot given their rapid rise to fame.
- The Strokes, a band that hardly needs an introduction, as their popularity spans a wide range of music fans.
- Wolfmother, a band that might just appeal to Mike Patton’s tastes, given his known appreciation for their music, as seen in previous collaborations and performances.
- Osees, known for their heavy sound, promising an intense experience for fans.
- Sumani, representing the hardcore genre, ensuring a diverse musical palette at the festival.
Other notable acts include Skrillex, RÜFÜS DU SOL, Noah Kahan, GRiZ, Teddy Swims, The Neighbourhood, Role Model, Kesha, and many more. Tickets for Bonnaroo go on sale Friday, December 5, and can be purchased exclusively through the Bonnaroo website.
