Don't forget to head by Coffee County Central High School to pick up your special VIP wristbands! Damn, it's been 10 years since I've been in that school!
To get to the high school from I-24, take Exit 111 and then take Hwy 55 toward Tullahoma. That's a left turn off the exit ramp no matter if you are coming from Chattanooga or Nashville. Follow Hwy 55 through three traffic lights about 1 1/2 miles. You'll see the Coffee County Administrative Plaza on your left, the United Regional Medical Center on the left. Keep going. When you see Ascend Federal Credit Union on your left you'll see the school also on the left and that's where you'll turn. Can't miss it!
The directions they gave me for VIP say to get off at exit 105 when coming from the Chatanooga area. Does that not sound right?
Okay, I was told that the VIP wristbands were available at the high school. If I'm misinformed that someone tell me. If they are at the high school where those tents are seen set-up, then you have been misinformed. Exit 105 takes you through Beechgrove in northern Coffee County. I can't imagine why they'd send you all the way up there.
Hmm, I thought we got the wristbands at the gate? Is this not right? Also, is there a separate line different from the regular line that the VIP goes through? What I mean is, I know there is a VIP entrance/parking once inside the grounds, but is there a separate line for VIP? Or are we all together until we get to the entrance?
Thanks for the info, can't wait, leaving Thursday morning at 5am from Stl!!
So, Scotty, the VIP food tent is now over by the mound (Main Stage) and not near the actual VIP grounds?
I was wondering about that, too. The map shows the two locations (food tent and bleacher bar) switched up from where they were last year. Sort of doesn't make any sense. I'm almost wondering if that is a mistake.

I don't remember seeing that Hospitality Tent next to The Mound and I drove by that way several times during set-up 'cause I worked in the kitchen which is across the road from The Mound.
That whole right side on the Bonnaroo Map is mostly VIPs. You do have the bar closer to the camping area and The Mound is located closer toward What Stage not as close to the camping area. I'm not understanding the bleachers being on the other side of The Mound though as shown in the map. It may not be a mistake, but I think The Mound would obstruct your view from the bleachers then.

The VIP information packet says "The main VIP hospitality area is located in VIP camping and serves full buffet and beverages throughout the day. The second VIP hospitality area is located at the main stage VIP viewing area. This area will feature light snacks and beverages"

That makes sense. I never went by the VIP camping area so I wouldn't have seen the hospitality tent with the buffet. The hostpitality tent with the light snacks is the one located on The Mound. Yes! That does make sense!
Oh, and your VIP wristbands are going to be at the high school! I double checked on this. The only wristbands available at the gates are for general admission ticket holders.
Venders, volunteers, and other members of Bonnaroo's staff will pick up their wristbands at the white tent located in front of the Home Depot.
Sitting in my camp right now looking out across the VIP area.My camp is right off the road that crosses VIP and right by the arch.
See people tonight at the PAARTAY! My son is already back at the Xbox 360 arcade.
Sweet, dude! I'm gonna' try to be out and about the 'Roo camps Saturday morning and Saturday late and night into Sunday.
I can't believe there's a camp called "Pussy Galore!" It's actually located very close to the VIP camps down Woodland. I'll actually pass that camp on my way to work at 'Roo on Saturday.

Oh yeah! I was going to ask. Were the VIP wristbands available at the high school as I was told? 'Cause that's where I was telling VIP people to go to get their wristbands. I'd hate to have relayed the wrong information. I can't imagine why else they would've set those tickettaker tents at the high school though if not for a specific group of ticket holders.
