I don't have a ticket to Bonnaroo, but I need to go because I'm meeting a bunch of friends there to join up with them to go to a couple other festivals. My question is - If I don't have a ticket/wrist band can I camp at Bonnaroo? I realize I won't be able to see any bands, but I need to know if I can camp there with friends without being hassled.

Dont think they allow you into the site without a ticket or a wristband, although i could be wrong. Ive heard they let the religious advertisers/biblethumping maniacs in for free.

I don't know. I've gone to Bonnaroo a few times and I've seen people in there that didn't have wristbands or anything just walking around and partying. I thought you could definitely get in.

theres a koa campground about 50 feet from the bonnaroo maingate isnt there? might be booked already and would kinda suck being so close and not going in but that could be your best bet
There's a nearby state park I think with camping...maybe that'd be a nice lil getaway while they're there. www.state.tn.us/environment/parks/OldStoneFort/ Old Stone Fort State Archaeological Park right in Manchester. I bet KOA is full and more expensive.
I've heard of the rare fence jumper but that's totally uncool.

Lots of non-ticket holders get into the campgrounds every year. You can just walk right in. Last year, there was security at the main gate going into Volunteer Camping, but anyone could walk right in through gaps in the fence. I often took a shortcut into the camp without going by security. Getting into Centeroo is a different matter.
koa sells out in january and is about four times the regular rate. there are parks around there however including some grea ones with waterfalls in monteagle.

I second the Old Stone Fort recommendation. It's a beautiful area. I expect you'd find plenty of room to camp, and the campgrounds are nicely shaded. There are also some nice trails to hike. If you decide to go this route and have transportation I'd also recommend trying to get down to Rutledge Falls. It's not far outside of Manchester (can be found through Google) and it has a great swimming hole. The water is pretty cold though, just a warning.
