Heartbroken at Bonnaroo: Artists, fans react to abrupt cancellation, 'this was gonna be a special one'
Bonnaroo 2025 will forever go down in the books by a new name: Bummeroo. Due to severe weather and flooding at The Farm, Bonnaroo officials posted on social media at 7:40 p.m. June 13 that the remainder of the festival would be canceled. "We have put our hearts and souls into making this weekend the most special one of the year, and cannot express how crushed we are to have to make this decision," they said in their statement. "Thank you in advance for your patience, your positivity and your unfailing Bonnaroovian spirit." Around 1 p.m. on June 13, festival officials suspended shows and evacuated Centeroo, the main festival grounds. Over the next six hours, 'Roo-goers were asked to shelter in their vehicles as weather oscillated between gentle showers and thunderstorms. About an inch of rain fell on Manchester, according to the National Weather Service, causing swampy and muddy conditions in Centeroo and the surrounding campgrounds in Outeroo. After news broke about the festival's cancellation, artists on the bill started to post their reactions. "Bonnaroo cancelled :(" DJ John Summit posted on his Instagram story. "So bummed for everyone who came, this was gonna be a special one but u can't control Mother Nature.. stay safe til next time fam." Summit was scheduled to perform on June 13. " of the best festivals in the world," Glass Animals said on their story. "We were so d*** excited and had some special stuff for you... I'm sorry, be safe, and we'll be back." Rock band Goose also posted on their story. "So sorry for all those in the campground and anyone who made the effort to come see us and all the other amazing acts this weekend," they said. The band said they would be premiering a set from their second night of shows in Colorado at 9:30 p.m. CST on Youtube on June 13 for free. "This is for anyone who is heartbroken at the Bonnaroo news right now, hope to make it back to the farm sometime soon," Goose said. Music producer Of The Trees was slated to perform on June 13 at midnight. On their story, they announced a Nashville show in place of the Bonnaroo set at Cannery Hall from 11 p.m. to 3 a.m. So did EDM trio Levity, who said they will now be performing with Inzo at The Pinnacle in Nashville for a June 14 show. They said that tickets will be on sale tomorrow, and you can sign up at a link in their Instagram story. "Roo set canceled due to weather. I'm so f***ing sad," electronic artist Effin said on Instagram. He was one of the first sets canceled before the festival was officially called off. Punk band Mannequin Pussy was in a similar situation. "MPs set has been cancelled due to severe thunderstorms," they posted on Instagram. "Really truly deeply hope we get to come back next year ... we were READY TO GO." "Everyone please stay safe," said pop band Post Sex Nachos on Bonnaroo's cancellation post, a group that was slated to perform at Bonnaroo on Sunday night at the new Infinity Stage. Yes, the festival will offer refunds. In a post on X, Bonnaroo posted their updated refund policy for this year: All 1-Day Friday, Saturday and Sunday Admission Tickets purchased via Front Gate Tickets and 1-Day Friday, Saturday and Sunday Day Parking purchased via Front Gate Tickets will be refunded. All 4-Day Admission Tickets purchased via Front Gate Tickets will receive a 75% refund. All 4-Day camping accommodations purchased via Front Gate Tickets will receive a 75% refund. The festival posted on social media that all refunds will be processed in as little as 30 days to the original method of payment. Festival attendees have had mixed reactions about the cancellation, but the overall consensus is disappointment. Over 2,300 comments have flooded the cancellation post on Instagram, some expressing anger about the 75% refund the festival has offered for 4-Day passes. "100% refund. We spent hella on transportation, food, etc. 'rain or shine,'" one person said. "Literally spent THOUSANDS of dollars flying from Hawaii……. first roo and most likely my last," another person said. Other commenters disagree. "They could give 200% refund and yall still wouldn't be happy they're prioritizing your safety," a commenter wrote. "This breaks my heart for all the vendors who spent thousands of dollars to be there and are losing over two days of projected sales and their entire vending fee," said another. "Y'all have the audacity to be mad about a 75% refund… but vendors don't get refunds AT ALL in these situations. Be grateful." Some festival attendees have taken a lighter approach to the cancellation. "HOW WILL I RELEASE MY INHIBITIONS AND FEEL THE RAIN ON MY SKIN NOW," one person said, nodding to Natasha Bedingfield's "Unwritten." Bedingfield was set to perform at The Farm on June 15. "Friday the 13th hitting hard this year," one commenter wrote. And one concise comment sums it up the best: "It's ROOined :(" More: Bonnaroo 2025 canceled due to weather.

Detroit's storied techno festival returns
A quarter-century after the now-iconic techno festival debuted, Movement is still thrumming, ushering in summer in Detroit. Why it matters: The Memorial Day weekend-long party hearkens back to techno's roots with Black artists here in Detroit, while expanding its reach to global audiences across genres and new, experimental sounds. Between the lines: Headliners include Belgian DJ Charlotte de Witte and John Summit, an American whom Rolling Stone recently called"one of the most in-demand DJs around." Local performers will dominate the stages, too — hometown techno legends like Kevin Saunderson, Carl Craig, Mike Banks and Stacey Hotwaxx Hale. And it's not just about music. This year's artist in residence is graffiti artist Goldie, who will be creating a mural installation during the festival called "Love: Detroit." What they're saying:"We're super excited to have the (Detroit-based) Underground Music Academy showcase. That's something new this year," Morin Yousif of organizer Paxahau tells Axios. "It's a collaboration that we have done with the school that's headed by artist and producer Waajeed, who's also playing the festival. It's awesome because we're getting to showcase some of the young and fresh talent in the city." Catch up quick: Movement started in 2000 as the Detroit Electronic Music Festival, a revolutionary gambit when this kind of music was still underground. Amid financing troubles and naysayers, it almost didn't happen, but it found great success. It's gone through several producers and iterations since then. It currently sees around 30,000 attendees a day. If you go: The six-stage festival is at Hart Plaza downtown, Saturday and Sunday 2pm-midnight and Monday 2-11pm. General admission three-day passes are $365 and VIP tickets with fast entry and relaxation areas are $449, though they're selling fast. General admission day passes are $206. You can rent a locker so you can store that bag and free your hands up for some intricate dance moves. Download the app for schedules, afterparties and a map. Food includes the iconic chicken on a stick, falafel, ice cream and much more.

Friday Dance Music Guide: The Week's Best New Tracks From Calvin Harris, Sub Focus & More
This week in dance music: Lady Gaga performed her electro romp 'Abracadabra' and new Gesaffelestein collab 'Killah' on Saturday Night Live, John Summit announced that he recently completed his 'first fully sober tour,' Barry Can't Swim released his first new single of the year with 'The Person You'd Like to Be' (and then later revealed that his second album, Loner, is coming in July), we caught up with the gentlemen of Justice to discuss the hyper success of their Hyperdrama album, Chicago's ARC Music festival announced a hefty 2025 lineup, Radiohead's Thom Yorke and electronic musician Mark Pritchard announced a forthcoming collaborative album, we got the first look of the newly designed Brooklyn Mirage and Everything But the Girl revealed that they'll perform their first live shows in 25 years next month in London. And on top of all that, we offer these, the best new dance tracks of the week. More from Billboard Playboi Carti Delays 'I AM MUSIC' Album Release by Three Hours Selena Gomez & Benny Blanco Reminisce on 'Sunset Blvd' in New Single: Stream It Now Chappell Roan Unveils Country-Leaning Track 'The Giver': Stream It Now Calvin Harris, 'Smoke the Pain Away' Calvin Harris walks down the dirt road into country music with 'Smoke the Pain Away,' an acoustic guitar and harmonica-heavy ode to trying to numb heartbreak with a hodgepodge of controlled substances. When the Scottish hitmaker teased the track earlier this month, it was unclear if or how any electronic elements would be incorporated, but while the song is still a departure for Harris, it does contain dance DNA with a flickery, high BPM beat that adds extra verve and bounce and helps the song ride the line between the two genres. Featuring Harris' own plaintive vocals, the song is another pretty undeniable earworm from one of dance's foremost hitmakers. It also comes days after the announcement that Harris will play the first ever double residency at Ushuaïa in Ibiza, where he'll perform on both Tuesdays and Fridays this summer. In keeping with the country theme. this mega-club is not too far from the sprawling farm Harris has on the island. ' Sub Focus & bbyclose, 'On & On' It's a big week for Sub Focus fans, the with U.K. heavyweight releasing his first new single of the year with 'On & On,' which extends his reputation as an essential master of drum and bass. The hypnotic song features a long mid-track bridge built largely around vocals from bbyclose, with the song altogether adding fuel to a run that's included Sub Focus' 2024 John Summit collab 'Go Back.' Following his sold out show at London's Alexandra Palace last week, he announced this week that he's bringing this same Circular Sound setup — which features him playing from the center of a halo of lights — to New York and Los Angeles this fall. Cassian, Script & Belladonna, 'Where I'm From' It's not a surprising that Cassian got not one but two slots opening for Anyma's Sphere residency, given that Australian producer and mixing engineer's sound sound falls squarely into the grandly-sized melodic techno style preferred by Anyma and many of the artists surrounding him. 'Where I'm From' is a prime specimen of the genre, with Cassian and his co-producers Script and Belladonna weaving together an urgent production, with stuttering vocals and ominous choral singing, into a straight-up banger that's right out of an action movie. Myd, 'The Wizard' French producer Myd returns with a pair of new tracks, 'Song for You' and 'The Wizard,' with the latter being a warm, propulsive and very soulful fusion of disco and tribal house that just feels good on the ears. Out via Ed Banger Records and Because Music, the singles follow Myd's slot DJ-ing the Opening Ceremony of the 2024 Paralympic Games in Paris and also comes after a marathon week-long Twitch stream from the producer's house in that same city, a segment of which you can see here. DJ E-Clyps, 'Gitit' The always reliable DJ E-Clyps returns with his fifth single of the year, 'Gitit.' The track balances a cool, bouncy, nearly future house production with E-Clyps' own vocals, a ode to being in the club and appreciating the kind of woman with 'pretty super eyes and those super juicy thighs' — lyrics he delivers in a laid-back staccato. 'Gitit' is out on Blacklight Factory, the label E-Clyps founded in partnership with Empire Dance and launched last month. Catz 'n Dogz & Nala, 'Dance' The Polish duo return with the noisy, kind of giddily abrasive electro-punk track 'Dance' a call to arms for dancefloor self expression. 'We wanted to create a track that could be played when you're angry, or just if you need to release that pressure valve. Something with pure energy' says the duo's Greg Demiañczuk. This one is just that, with its strident vocals courtesy of Miami-based artist Nala, a regular Catz & Dogs collaborator who's also opening for John Summit tomorrow (March 15) at Billboard Presents THE STAGE at SXSW in Austin, Texas.
