The Home Stretch is Here! Spoiler Alert: Bonnaroo Packages Arriving Now!
With less than 25 days to go until The Farm opens its gates to welcome home the faithful, tickets have officially started arriving. Much like the golden tickets of Willy Wonka fame, people are starting to take to the internet to share photos of their ticket packages as they arrive, swag in tow. Watching the internet today, many are saying this is the best swag since 2014, a year in which Bonnaroo sent ticket buyers a very nice metal lunchbox that proudly sits on my entertainment center (I use it to keep my Cards Against Humanity Collection together).
For those who are new to Bonnaroo, Roo sends out a bit of merchandise with its wrist band (your ticket) each year. Many many different things have come in these packages over the years, and it is always a big party when we all find out what the swag has to hold for us. Many are even saying this years collection of stuff is BETTER than the lunch box of years prior because, much like the Roofus bag of last year, this year’s swag is a little more practical to use day to day.
So, what is it, what is in the bag? Well, FINAL SPOILER ALERT: PICTURE OF SWAG BELOW!
This year’s big item is a fanny pack! This fits perfectly with a recent festival trend, both of fanny packs as a fashion accessory and trying to get concertgoers to carry smaller bags. Fewer bags = fewer and quicker searches. Alongside the fanny pack is a bandana (these come every year), some temporary tattoos, a booklet with some basic festival info, and of course the wristband (RFID Wristbands by Arnett Credentials), this year in green! Also shown here is a decoder keychain, which will be included for those who purchased pre-sale tickets, along with the decoding challenge information!
How excited are you for this year’s Bonnaroo swag? Personally, once you are done decoding, I’ll trade someone my first-born child for that keychain!
