Whether it's your first Bonnaroo or you’re a music festival veteran, we welcome you to Inforoo.
Here you'll find info about artists, rumors, camping tips, and the infamous Roo Clues. Have a look around then create an account and join in the fun. See you at Bonnaroo!!
Someone should post on here when it becomes available for them to put in their deposit! becauuuuseee my email server is down for i dont know how long, and I want to know if I'm missing my oppurtunity to put in my deposit because of my email being down.
You have to be accepted but I'm sure when we are accepted and able to put in our deposit, we'll let you know. We should get info on our login info too. We still need a password to log in with.
I'm assuming we're able to camp on the grounds from the date we get there right, since volunteers have to show up early?
Yes. Unless you're doing toll booths, I believe, you immediately go to camp in the main volunteer camping section out near POD 1. Toll booth camp is near the West Tollbooths, closest to POD 6, near the silo (upper left on a Roo map). I believe we were in Camp Zoolander. Our cars still get searched and we are parked similarly to regular patrons and immediately set up camp.
Hmm, I'm planning on flying down, hopefully getting there from nashville airport isn't too much of a hassle.
well, the regular shuttles Bonnaroo provides won't be available, but I'm sure you can easily get a long cab ride, or even better...someone here can pick you up on their way?
I saw 2 people on Bonnaroo's Facebook saying they're essentially waiting on the link to be posted on the site still, which made me check it myself and no updates yet. Hopefully they post a status announcing it and post the link for new volunteers soon, on the website.
51 year old first timer applied this morning and am sooooo excited. Hope I get accepted.
Aaaack! How did you sign up already? There's no link, yet. I was told in an email the link would go live at 12pm EST today. btw, I'm a first time volunteer too....and probably closer in age to you than 85% of those who will sign up.

Probably cause I posted my email with link last week.

I sure hope mine don't get throwed out!!! I was allowed to use the link, to fill in and submit an application, and to pay the $25 application fee. I got an email receipt for the transaction. So.....keeping my fingers crossed.

I hope not either. I'm not saying it would.....it's just my inclination to over-think things like that. Hopefully the link will be up in a few so I can get my app in too

5 more minutes and then you dont have to worry about using the link before posted online, I hope... I doubt they're really organized enough to do anything about the early submissions. They want your help. If anything, mayyybe put the returning volunteers that applied before noon today in a higher priority position than the ones that are new and submitted already. *shrug*

For those who have applied before, how does it work once you submit the application as far as sending in your deposit? Can this be done as soon as you apply or do you have to wait to hear back before you can pay the 300 and secure your spot? Also, for first year apps how good are my chances of getting Prefest if I apply first thing on Monday?
Fill out the app on Monday. You can only pay the deposit after you have been accepted. Within 72 hours of paying the deposit, you will be assigned a "C'roo." Odds are significantly lower that a first timer gets prefest but I'm not aware of any rule that first timers are never prefest. Especially with this new "GuRoo" position, it seems there may be a few less returning vols for regular prefest spots.
I'd make sure to put Tollbooth Parking as your second choice since they lose less time on the farm than other during-fest vols. Finally, you really ought to consider whether you'd be OK with getting during-fest and possibly missing shows. Once you put down the $300 deposit it's gone.
You said that the odds are significantly lower for a first timer to get put into pre-fest... My friends and I filled out the application soon after it opened, but what are the odds that we will get it, in your opinion?
Obviously, Pre-Fest is ideal, but we are going to go either way.

Hope to see you there, old-timer!
I wish you old geezers would stay off of here!!
J/K... I'm a tad bit older than both of you and this will be my first year. Bonnaroo is just 70 miles down the road for me and I couldn't pass up the opportunity to see it at least one time!
I'm REALLY glad to know there are others my age (or close to it) that will be there with the young'uns! Old rockers ROCK!
Watchin' a stretch of road, miles of light explode. Driftin' off a thing I'd never done before. Watchin' a crowd roll in. Out go the lights it begins. A feelin' in my bones I've never felt before...

I volunteered last year and want to ensure that I get pre-fest this time around. If I submit my application this week and submit my deposit right when I get approved, do you think my chances of getting in are good in? Also, I volunteered last year with a friend who wants to do pre-fest as well, but he's not gonna have the deposit money between two weeks and a month from now. Will he be ok as long as we link up to work together I don't want one of us to get pre-fest and not the other. I also don't want to get stuck working during the fest, and would rather do post-fest than during. That's why I'm pissed that you can't switch over after you make your deposit.

Any one have any idea when we'll be getting our acceptance emails? I thought I read a week somewhere but I might be mistaken. I'm a returning volunteer and filled my application out last Thursday! Super excited to be heading back to the farm again with my best friend, this year we've recruited a newbie to come with is!
I got my acceptance a little bit ago. (submitted Wed I think)
You have 72 hours after the deposit until you find out your croo.
I'm sure you can email them to switch, especially if to post fest. Prefest is possible if return volunteers aren't quick to sign up yet and whatnot. Email and ask.
