International music festival Bonnaroo has just expanded its star-studded lineup for 2024, featuring a mix of hip-hop, pop, and rock acts.
Post Malone, Megan Thee Stallion, and Joey Bada$$ are the latest additions to the festival, scheduled to take place in Manchester, Tennessee, from June 13 to 16.
The organizers, in a press release shared with HipHopDX, unveiled an impressive roster that spans various genres.
Joining the three new headliners are renowned artists such as Red Hot Chili Peppers, Pretty Lights, Cage The Elephant, Maggie Rogers, Melanie Martinez, Khruangbin, Cigarettes After Sex, Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit, Diplo, and Carly Rae Jepsen.
Tickets for Bonnaroo 2024 are set to go on sale starting Thursday, January 11, with fans having the opportunity to secure a pre-sale passcode by signing up on the festival’s official website.
Last year’s edition of Bonnaroo delighted hip-hop enthusiasts as Kendrick Lamar took the stage as the headlining act.

The four-day festival featured an array of talent, including Baby Keem, Lil Nas X, Three 6 Mafia, J.I.D., Destroy Lonely, Ken Carson, Yung Gravy, and more. Kendrick Lamar, representing pgLang, graced the stage on the festival’s second day.
Reflecting on the festival’s history, the notable appearance of Kanye West in 2008 remains a memorable moment.
However, not for the best reasons. The show faced a two-hour delay, leaving fans frustrated as Kanye finally started his performance around 4:25 AM. This delay was attributed to complications in dismantling Pearl Jam’s set and setting up Kanye’s elaborate stage, leading to chants of “Kanye sucks!” from the audience.
Despite the hiccups in 2008, Bonnaroo redeemed itself in 2009 by featuring Snoop Dogg as the headline act. The Doggfather shared the stage with iconic acts such as The Beastie Boys, Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band, Phish, Nine Inch Nails, David Byrne, Wilco, Al Green, and Elvis Costello in a diverse and successful lineup.
