Bonnaroo closes out a sweltering weekend

MANCHESTER, Tenn. — After a relentlessly hot and humid weekend, the ninth annual Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival is wrapping up its four days of music revelry.

The festival, held on a 700-acre farm south of Nashville, was to close Sunday night with headliner Dave Matthews Band. Jay-Z and Stevie Wonder headlined the main stage on Saturday after Kings of Leon did on Friday.

Ashley Capps is the co-founder of Bonnaroo and president of festival co-producer AC Entertainment. She says attendance was more than 75,000, but slightly less than sold-out.

Temperatures were in the mid-90s most of the weekend, with the heat index more than 100. Capps said that for the most part, festival attendees stayed healthy. Coffee County Sheriff Steve Graves said arrests were “about normal.” More than 50 had been arrested as of Sunday afternoon.
