  • The Bonnaroo Music and Arts Festival returns in 2006, this year taking place June 16-18th. The annual multi-stage camping festival held on a beautiful 700-acre farm in Manchester, Tennessee has a history of bringing together some of the best performers in rock 'n' roll, along with dozens of artists in complementary styles such as jazz, Americana, hip-hop and electronica. In addition to hundreds of artists showcasing their talents, the festival's 100-acre entertainment village is known to buzz around the clock with attractions and activities including a classic arcade, on-site cinema, silent disco, comedy club, theater performers, a beer festival, and a music technology village.
