Bonnaroo has sold all of its tickets to this year’s music festival. This year, however, things are a little bit different when concertgoers arrive at the concert. No longer can you buy paper tickets at the gate or print your ticket from the Web.
Bonnaroo has introduced wristbands with RFID, which could only be bought through the official Web site, according to Nashville.com.
