Bonnaroo is back. The annual extravaganza has announced the slate of performers for its 2020 music festival in Manchester, Tennessee.

Bonnaroo is one of those special places where, upon learning the news that Tool, Miley Cyrus and Bassnectar share the bill (all on the same day, in fact), the music fan’s response is “oh yeah, that makes perfect, logical sense.”

Other 2020 performers include LIZZO, Primus, Tenacious D, Greensky Bluegrass, Lana Del Rey, Tame Impala, Leon Bridges, Run the Jewels, Pigeons Playing Ping Pong, Flogging Molly, Femi Kuti, Dashboard Confessional and Megan Thee Stallion.

The Grand Ole Opry continues its Bonnaroo takeover on Thursday night, staging a country-themed variety show that night, and other festival components include comedy acts, a cinema tent, waterslide, an abundance of food, art and clothing vendors, a 5k and more.

Traditionally set for June each year, the 2020 Bonnaroo Music and Arts Festival has been rescheduled to the fall. Bonnaroo will be Thursday, Sept. 24, through Sunday, Sept. 27, just off of I-24 in Manchester, Tennessee. Find tickets and more information at bonnaroo.com.
