Hello fellow Bonnarooers! We are down to the last few days and the excitement is building. The anticipation is killing me, I know. I'm so ready to get there and experience my second Bonnaroo.
I'm a new member here on the forum. My name is Lee. I am also a local. I live just 20 minutes from Manchester. The only way I can afford to attend Bonnaroo at all is to volunteer. So my husband and I will be volunteering for the 2nd time this year in exchange for our tickets. We will (hopefully) be working the Broo'ers Festival, serving up quality beer for the masses.
For volunteers, such as my hubby and I, the entry method is fairly simple. They have special parking at the local car lot with everything set up to sign in and get a one day armband. We then shuttle, via van, to the main stage back entrance and come in that way.
This year we are taking our 16 year old daughter, who bought her own Bonnaroo ticket with her allowance money. Since she is underage, she isn't able to volunteer with us to get in.
My question is for anyone who may have been in this situation or is familiar with how we can go about getting in ourselves, being volunteers, and getting our daughter in, who has a ticket. We aren't really sure how to go about this and have been unable to find any information about it online. (Please forgive me if there is already a thread here talking about it and I missed it. I searched through TONS of threads and couldn't find an answer.)
Will we have to get in line with the rest of the Bonnaroo traffic and get her wristband at the main gate? Or do they have alternative ways for us to get her wristband since we are her only way in and out of Bonnaroo? We're just at a loss as to what to do and would really like to know before Thursday morning.
She can walk up to the main gate while you drive around the back, then you guys can just meet up later. It is under two miles from the gas station at the start of Bushy Branch to check in.
Alternatively, if you know anyone else going send her in with them.

Thank you so much for your reply. My husband thought that letting her walk to the entrance was going to be our best bet. Unfortunately, we don't know anyone else who is going that has a ticket. Everyone we know that will be at Bonnaroo this year is volunteering and getting in the same way that we are.
I appreciate you taking the time to reply and helping us out. Thanks so much.
Yes. I am prepared to do exactly that with hopes of maybe finding another way. I am supposed to get a call by Tuesday evening to let us know the exact times and location of our volunteer work. I intend to ask when I get the call. Thanks for the suggestion.
