In a show of solidarity with music fans impacted by the abrupt cancellation of Bonnaroo 2025, Northlands Music & Arts Festival is extending a warm welcome—and free admission—to displaced attendees this weekend.
Festival organizers announced that anyone holding a valid 2025 Bonnaroo wristband will be granted complimentary access to Northlands on both Saturday, June 14th and Sunday, June 15th. The offer applies to single-day entry for each day and includes access to the festival’s main concert grounds. Camping and campground access are not included.
Located in the forested foothills of Swanzey, NH, Northlands is currently in full swing with two full days of live music, art, and community still ahead. The event features performances on its dual Echo and Mountain Stages, along with interactive art installations, local food and craft vendors, workshops, and immersive activities spread across the picturesque venue.
Remaining performances include Kitchen Dwellers, Soulive, Andy Frasco & The U.N., Cory Wong, moe. (two sets), and more on Saturday, followed by Holly Bowling, Tand, LaMP, Neighbor, lespecial, Terrapin Family Band, Lotus, Umphrey’s McGee (two sets), and more on Sunday.
Gates open at 11:00 a.m. ET on both Saturday and Sunday. Bonnaroo pass-holders can show their 2025 wristband at the gate to receive free admission. A limited number of VIP upgrades will also be available at the box office for those seeking an elevated experience.
While camping is not included in the offer, nearby accommodations—such as those in Brattleboro, VT, just 30 minutes from the venue—remain an option for out-of-town visitors looking to salvage their festival weekend.
Those who can’t make it person can stream the festival live via nugs, who just announced a $5 summer subscription deal, rebranded look, Roku app, and more. Sign up here to start streaming today.
