Car Camping
Car camping is one of the most popular options when it comes to Bonnaroo! You can purchase GA, VIP or Platinum car camping passes. This holds a space for you and your car to sleep. These tickets are required one PER CAR. So, save some $$ and split the car pass with your group! These particular passes are required ONLY if you do not plan on purchasing a specialty camping pass such as Le Bon, Glamping, Groop or Community camping.
Tip: You MUST stay in line with the cars you want to camp with THE ENTIRE TIME as you WILL NOT be able to save spaces for ‘late arrivers’
