Disney+ and Hulu said on May 18 that they will livestream Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival across both platforms for the first time in 2026, adding one of Live Nation’s marquee summer events to Disney’s growing live-music streaming slate. The announcement also covered Lollapalooza and Austin City Limits Music Festival, according to Disney+’s press site. Bonnaroo is scheduled for June 11-14 in Manchester, Tennessee, the festival’s website says. Hulu’s help page lists Bonnaroo among its 2026 live music festival streams and says viewers need an active Hulu subscription to watch. ### When does the Bonnaroo stream start? Bonnaroo’s official site says the 2026 festival runs from June 11 through June 14 in Manchester, Tennessee. Disney+ and Hulu said the event will stream live across both services during that window. Hulu’s music-festival help page lists Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival for June 11, 2026, through June 14, 2026. The same page says live festival access on Hulu requires an active subscription and a supported device. ### What exactly did Disney and Hulu announce? Disney+’s press site said on May 18 that Disney+ is joining Hulu to livestream Bonnaroo, Lollapalooza and Austin City Limits Music Festival globally. The company said the streams will include live performances, highlights and behind-the-scenes access in real time. The May 18 announcement described the move as the first time those three festivals will stream live across both platforms. Hulu has previously carried festival streams, including Lollapalooza, on its service, according to Hulu pages for earlier events. ### Is this only Bonnaroo, or part of a bigger festival package? The Disney+ announcement named three festivals: Bonnaroo, Lollapalooza and Austin City Limits Music Festival. Hulu’s help page also lists iHeartCountry Festival and iHeartRadio Festival among its 2026 live music events. Hulu’s schedule page places Bonnaroo first among the major summer festivals on that list, followed by Lollapalooza from July 30 to Aug. 2 and Austin City Limits from Oct. 2 to Oct. 4. ### What do viewers need to watch? Hulu’s support page says viewers need an active Hulu subscription, a Live TV supported device and, in Hulu’s phrasing, “good vibes” to stream live music festivals. The same page says ads may run between performances, including for Hulu Premium subscribers. Disney+’s press release said the festivals will stream across Disney+ and Hulu, but the company’s public materials surfaced in search did not spell out separate pricing or access terms for Disney+ viewers. Disney’s streaming pages describe Disney+, Hulu and ESPN+ as part of the company’s Disney Streaming business. ### What else is known about Bonnaroo 2026?
