The Bonnaroo Music and Arts Festival is unique in it's approach to ticketing. There are considerable incentives for buying your tickets early, and opportunities to pay for tickets in installments via their layaway plan.
Each year, festival organizers offer a limited number of general admission tickets (four day passes) at bargain rates to those who make their purchases early. Tickets for this year's event went on sale in November 2009 at a price of $209.50, and incremented up to $224.50 and then $234.50 as each price group sold out. It's too late to take advantage of the special low prices this year, but do keep it in mind for next year!
The good news is that tickets for this year's event are still available, and at a price of $249.50 for four amazing days of music they are still a considerable bargain. Admission includes camping and parking space at no extra charge (except in the case of RV camping, which requires the additional purchase of an RV Pass at $150.00 plus an extra $25 if you wish to park a car next to your RV). Some service fees are added to the face value of the ticket, and these are fully detailed on the ticket purchase page at bonnaroo.com so there are no unpleasant surprises. Fed Ex shipping of pre-ordered tickets will begin on Wednesday, May 26, 2010.
