In 2013, we came in off the highway and got camped right behind the clock tower. The last two years, we've ended up at the back entrance and camped in BFE. Is that just ironic? Or is there a pattern there?
How far down the highway would I have to go past Bonnaroo to turn around and have them allow me back on the highway so that I can go in that entrance?
Has anyone ever not liked their camping spot, so they drove through, left, and got back in line? Would they stop us if we tried?
I'm sure I'll catch flack for that last question, but I refuse to camp in BFE again. Last year, we were in Pod 10, 2014 we were in the very back of Pod 2, almost to Pod 10. Honestly, I'm fat and I don't want to do it again, haha. Coming from Michigan, the heat is miserable enough for me, haha.
- The Ferris Wheel is west of the centeroo entrance... normally east. - What is the Electric Den? Another place to hear music without instruments? Yippie
The Electric Den is a vendor booth sponsored by Smirnoff Ice, giving out samples of new flavors.

No, I'm not kidding.
I saw that in an email just now. I am looking forward to not having as packed of a music schedule this year, so I can actually see what else goes on at Bonnaroo. If the Electric Den is a high point, I need to find more shows to go to.

Another place to listen to music without instruments actually sounds better at this point.......

I don't really drink, but will have a smirnoff ice every once in a blue moon. I might have to check that out.

Smirnoff being served at Roo? There is going to be some serious raging at those trap sets.
Come on Bonnaroo, put the map on your website. wtf.
For real. That map on the app is so tiny and impossible to really tell where everything is, no matter how zoomed in you are. I need something I can print out on an 11 x 17.
I love the highway entrance. Entered through it last year around 1pm Thursday and I was in camp Dillon, 5 minute walk to the Ferris Wheel entrance.
Awesome! I'm curious to see where they end up putting my group who is coming on Wednesday since there is no pod 1.
In 2014, we came in the highway tollbooths Wednesday around 9pm I think (it was dark out by the time we got through the tollbooths). We got parked in Camp Ferris Bueller/Biff Tannen area behind the VIP RVs.
Besides the silent disco placement why is which stage so bad? It's my first year I'm legitimately asking.
With the angle of the stage, the vendors behind the soundboard, and the trees in the middle of the field, it has some of the worst sight lines and the most sound issues depending on where you are watching from.
The sound stinks.. Just get there early and get close and you will have a BLAST..

Knowing Bonnaroo, they'll wait until the week of to put the map on the website. I took the liberty stitching together a bunch of stills from my phone in Photoshop. Here's the 2016 Centeroo Map. I'll probably do the same for the entire campgrounds map either tonight or tomorrow when I'm bored at work.

I guess if they somehow make space for the silent disco behind the Whcih Stage near hamaggon and the Miller Light Stage, it makes sense because there's usually a lot of bad sound bleed in that area and Silent Disco doesn't need to worry about that.
As for entering, I've personally found that earlier in Wednesday, The East tollbooth isn't all that bad. You just have to drive past everything on I24 for a bit and then backtrack.

I think it makes sense to move the Cinema and Comedy tents "up", because typically all that is there is a huge field of nothing. I'm not stressing about that lack of space. But maybe I'm just not picturing it right in my head, but it doesn't seem like there is any good reason to move the Silent Disco. There should still be plenty of room over there, even with the moving of the Cinema and Comedy tents.

That's exactly what I did last year. I saw they were rerouting cars off the highway to the back entrance, so I went one more exit past the Bonnaroo exit, turned around and got back in line for the highway entrance. Only waited in line for 2 hours or so. Camp was 5 min walk from the arch. They rerouted us to the back entrance 2 years ago and waited in line for 12 hours.

Foster the people was amazing there in 2012 i wasn't even that close and it still sounded amazing! I think it depends on the band and the way they let the speakers flow!
Well... I'm very curious as this will affect us volunteers a bunch. If there's no Woodlands entrance and no vendors at POD 1...I hope I don't hate the change. Though, this could mean volunteers get more camping space now. Since I'm going in on Sunday before the fest as a pre-fest volunteer, I'll try to update people on how it looks in person (but most likely on the Facebook group only)
