Every June, the Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival transforms 700 acres of Tennessee farmland into one of the most exciting american concert series currently running. Over the course of four days, dozens of bands will contribute to a massive live show that spans ten stages and entertains some 80,000 fans from around the world. Not content to just deliver on music, Bonnaroo also features stand-up comedy, cinema, dancing, shopping, food, and even morning meditation sessions. If that still doesn’t sound achingly hip enough for you, consider this: the Bonnaroo App. With individual iPhone, iPad, Android, Mac, and BlackBerry versions available for download, this digital entry into the epic-music-fest world is a must-have for Bonnaroo attendees, with integrated maps, schedules, and a retailer directory included.
