Bonnaroo Music and Art Festival Daily Schedule 2021
Bonnaroo Music and Art Festival will take place in Manchester, TN, September 2 – 5, 2021

One of, if not the quintessential music festivals in the country, Bonnaroo is known for its eclectic lineup of the best musical acts in pop, rock, jam, funk, rap, and more.
With 4 stages and a pair of tents to get down in, the Bonnaroo Daily Schedule is always much sought after, with attendees anxiously awaiting to plan their festy and which bands they will see, when, and where.
The 2021 Bonnaroo Daily Lineup is packed. Fans will get their steps in jumping from stage to stage, trying not to miss a thing.
News flash – you can’t see it all.

BUT, you can do your best to see all of your favorites while still leaving a little time to eat and sleep. But just a little.
This year’s Bonnaroo Daily Schedule has some real gems to watch out for.
The main act on Friday Night is Foo Fighters, but many in attendance will most likely be spending that set gearing up for one of the sure-to-be highlights of the weekend, Primus under the “This” Tent. Of course, as difficult as it is to leave a Primus show early, it may be necessary to catch a bit of Run the Jewels.
Latest jam favorites, Goose, are in the Saturday Night late-night slot. To the chagrin of some, there’s a bit of overlap with My Morning Jacket, but a little bit of hustle will let you check them both out for a bit.
While choices may be needed between Goose and MMJ, both bands are following Lizzo, and Bonnaroo was smart enough to empty the other stages for her performance. (Who would want to compete with that show?!)
Sunday Night at Bonnaroo closes the long weekend with some heavy hitters, and will definitely require a little planning and some quick moves to catch as much as possible. Still, you should be able to skank your ass off to Flogging Molly before seeing Tyler the Creator, and finishing the night off getting down and dirty to deadmau5.
Just be sure to save a little gas in the tank for the Thank You For Everything Dance Party in the campground, and the Surprise Guest Headliner!
A few more Bonnaroo 2021 Daily Schedule Highlights:
🤠 If you happen to be one of the first to arrive at Bonnaroo and set up camp, you can catch the Tuesday Night Urban Cowboy Line Dancing to kick things off.
🚀 On Wednesday night (Thursday Morning) the party really kicks off at Bonnaroo with the Blast Off Dance Party.
🎶 With Bonnaroo in full swing on Thursday, there are some acts you’ll not want to miss.
The Lil Smokies always impresst, and they’ll definitely have their A+ game on in Manchester. Andy Frasco is a party you won’t want to miss in That Tent. If you’re still rolling with it late-late-night, check out DJ Mamabear at the campground Where in the Woods stage.
🔥 Friday at Bonnaroo has some real heat. (Wanna beat the heat at Bonnaroo? Check this out.)
Things fire up early with Marcus King Band playing What Stage at 2:15 PM. Turkuaz Remain in Light is a show you won’t want to miss later that afternoon. Be ready to dance!
Brandon Taz Niederauer will get your evening off to a good start, and Khruangbin will keep it going.
🕺 On Saturday, don’t miss the legendary Jon Batiste. Tame Impala is sure to deliver a great set as well. Too Manz Zooz has a campground set that will surely be talked about.
🎸 Sunday at Bonnaroo has perhaps one of the best sets of the weekend tucked away in the middle of the afternoon. Trust us, you will never again get a chance to see Greensky Bluegrass at 3:45 PM! The Boombox Cartel will be a rager as well.
However, you plan your Bonnaroo 2021 Daily Schedule, be sure to be realistic! With this much music on this many stages, you can’t possibly do it all.
FOMO can’t be a thing – just enjoy where you are, Be Your Fest Self, and Dance Like Everybody’s Watching!
