Bonnaroo Canceled Amid Severe Tennessee Weather
The 2025 Bonnaroo festival is a washout. The long-running event in Manchester, Tn., outside Nashville canceled the final three days of its programming as severe weather began creating unsafe conditions on site.

'We are beyond gutted, but we must make the safest decision and cancel the remainder of Bonnaroo,' organizers said. See their full statement below:
Today, the National Weather Service provided us with an updated forecast with significant and steady precipitation that will produce deteriorating camping and egress conditions in the coming days. We are beyond gutted, but we must make the safest decision and cancel the remainder of Bonnaroo.
We are going to make things right with you, and you will find refund information at the end of this message, but let's start with the next steps. The number one thing we need from the Bonnaroo community is patience. Some of your fellow campers' sites are in rough shape. The rain has settled in areas and made certain parts of Outeroo difficult to manage. We'd like to prioritize getting those folks as well as those with accessibility needs off the Farm as soon as possible this evening.
To do this, we ask that if your campsite is in good shape or if you're in an RV or pre-pitched accommodation, please consider spending the night with us and we'll start working to get you out of here safely tomorrow.
We will continue to operate as usual in Outeroo including food vendors and all health and safety infrastructure. 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. Thank you in advance for your patience, your positivity and your unfailing Bonnaroovian spirit.

Bonnaroo Music Festival canceled due to severe weather, flooding: Refunds and info
Bonnaroo Music Festival canceled due to severe weather, flooding: Refunds and info Show Caption Hide Caption Coachella campers face festival traffic nightmare Coachella campers arrived ahead of the start of the famed festival only to face massive traffic lines. The 2025 Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival was canceled after one day due to severe weather and flooding. Heavy rainfall swamped the main venue, Centeroo, forcing the evacuation of attendees. Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival 2025 organizers have canceled the remaining three days of the buzzy annual event. Severe weather and flooding forced Bonnaroo officials to announce on June 13 that they were canceling the weekend portions of the festival. In a statement released the same day on Bonnaroo's official website and social media pages, organizers said they were "beyond gutted, but we must make the safest decision and cancel the remainder of Bonnaroo." "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." Bonnaroo 2025 canceled: Officials call off shows after severe weather swamps grounds Initially, festival officials suspended shows around 1 p.m. local before evacuating Centeroo — the main performance venue with six stages, soon after. For the next six hours, the inclement weather ranged from gentle showers to torrential thunderstorms. The weather dropped just about an inch of rain on Bonnarroo's hometown of Manchester, Tennessee — around an hour outside Nashville — according to the National Weather Service. The rainfall swamped Centeroo and the areas around the main stages. Attendees mud wrestled even during rain delays in mucky conditions. The only headliner to perform was country hitmaker Luke Combs on Thursday, who made history as the festival's first-ever country headliner. During his rousing set, he brought out three-time Grammy winner Miranda Lambert for support and performed a slew of hits. Tyler, the Creator, Olivia Rodrigo and Hozier were set to helm the remaining days. Bonnaroo refunds: What ticket holders can expect In their statement, Bonnaroo officials vowed to "make things right" with festivalgoers and said all one-day Friday, Saturday and Sunday admission tickets and parking purchased via Front Gate Tickets will be refunded. All four-day admission tickets and camping accommodations will receive a 75% refund. "All refunds will be processed in as little as 30 days" to the customer's original payment method, according to a refund fact sheet. Contributing: Melonee Hunt

Brad Garrett Signs with Gersh for Voiceover Representation (EXCLUSIVE)
Actor Brad Garrett has signed with Gersh for voiceover representation, including animated features and series, gaming and voiceover branding. This announcement follows last week's launch of Gersh Voice, headed by veteran voice agent Pam Goldman. More from Variety Children's Media Company Totoy Signs with Gersh, Sets 'José Totoy' Feature Film Jeffrey Donovan Signs With Gersh (EXCLUSIVE) Gersh Hires Pamela Goldman as Head of Voice Garrett has brought to life dozens of beloved characters across some of the most popular animated films, including in Pixar's 'Finding Nemo,' 'Ratatouille,' 'A Bug's Life,' 'Finding Dory,' and the upcoming film 'Elio,' as well as Disney's 'Tangled' and 'Planes,' and 'The Night at the Museum' franchise. His other notable voice credits include 'Casper' and the voice of Eeyore in 'Christopher Robin' and 'Ralph Breaks the Internet.' On screen, Garrett won three Emmy Awards for his performance in 'Everybody Loves Raymond,' and also starred in ''Til Death,' 'Single Parents,' 'Gleason' and 'Fargo.' Along with Gersh, Garrett is represented by Entertainment 360, UTA, & Gendler, Kelly & Cunningham. The launch of Gersh Voice follows a recent series of strategic moves by Gersh that have doubled the agency's size and expanded its presence to 16 countries. The agency's growth plan began following a 2023 equity investment from Crestview Partners. In 2024, Gersh acquired two A3 departments — forming Gersh Digital and expanding its Alternative department — and the global sports and entertainment agency You First, which established Gersh as a player in worldwide sports representation. That momentum continued in 2025 with the elevation of Leslie Siebert to president, formalizing a leadership structure focused on collaboration, client success and continued agency growth. Earlier this year, Gersh announced that it had hired veteran agent Bonnie Bernstein, who joined the agency from CAA.

‘Everybody Loves Raymond' Star Brad Garrett Says the Sitcom Will ‘Never' Be Rebooted: ‘There Is No Show Without the Parents'
Brad Garrett is shutting down rumors of an 'Everybody Loves Raymond.' While at the premiere of Disney Pixar's 'Elio' on June 10, Garrett spoke with People magazine about whether the sitcom would be rebooted. The actor, who played Ray Romano's brother in the series, confirmed that there won't be a revival of the show after speaking with Romano and Philip Rosenthal, the show's creator. More from Variety Brad Garrett Signs with Gersh for Voiceover Representation (EXCLUSIVE) Ray Romano Says Reviving 'Everybody Loves Raymond' Is 'Out of the Question': Reboots Are 'Never as Good' Patricia Arquette Sets the Tone for Noisy, Chaotic PI Comedy 'High Desert': TV Review Garrett said that the main reason behind the decision is because of the death of Peter Boyle and Doris Roberts, two actors who played Romano's parents in the show. 'There is no show without the parents,' Garrett said. 'They were the catalyst, and to do anything that would resemble that wouldn't be right to the audiences or the loyal fan base. And it was about those two families, and you can't get around that.' Premiering in 1996, 'Everybody Loves Raymond' starred comedian Romano, who played Ray Barone, a sports columnist who lived in Long Island with his wife and three kids. As a family man, the show followed him as he navigated dealing with a resentful brother and meddling parents who lived across the street. Garrett received five Emmy Award nominations for his role on the show, in which he won three for outstanding supporting actor in a comedy series. During the sitcom's nine seasons, it was nominated for 69 Primetime Emmy Awards and won 15 of them. When reflecting on his experience acting on 'Everybody Loves Raymond,' Garrett expressed his gratitude for being a part of the show. 'I know [the reboot] won't happen, but 30 years later, I got very lucky to get on that bus,' he said. 'I'm very grateful.' Although a reboot isn't planned, all 210 episodes of the show are available for streaming on Peacock and Paramount+.
