Since my last report, there have been a few more big date announcements in the festival world. Perhaps summer's most popular festival, Bonnaroo, will take place June 10th-13th back in Manchester, Tennessee. Bonnaroo has drastically grown since its formation in 2002. Some say this growth has been for the better, while others complain about commercialization, over-attendance, and a diversification of lineup choices. Regardless, Bonnaroo 2009 saw headliners such as Phish, Bruce Springsteen, and the Beastie Boys, so they must be doing something right. A holiday ticket presale begins next Friday, November 27th and tickets start at 209.50$. To purchase tickets, visit bonnaroo.com. Also recently announced are the dates for the 2010 Wanee Festival. This year's Allman Brothers classic will take place April 16th and 17th in the Spirit of the Suwanee Music Park in Live Oak, Florida. Taking place at one of the Nation's most beautiful outdoor music settings, the Allman's usually do a great job scrapping up a solid lineup for this festival season kickoff. For more information on this event, visit Wanee's very cool website at waneefestival.com. Lastly, the dates of Gathering of the Vibes 2010 were just announced. The festival will once again take place in Seaside Park in Bridgeport, CT and this year's dates are July 29th to August 1st. The festival was created in honor of Jerry Garcia, so it is only appropriate that Gathering of the Vibes 2010 is celebrated the weekend of Jerry's birthday. Early bird tickets go on sale next Friday, November 27th. For more information, visit the Vibes website at gatheringofthevibes.com. Keep checking up for more festival updates and lineup announcements.
