Bonnaroo 2014 will feature performances by Jack White, Elton John, Vampire Weekend, Kanye West and more

Bonnaroo Music and Arts Festival is back for 2014, and in true Bonnaroo fashion, the just-announced lineup will feature a wide variety of musicians. Jack White, Vampire Weekend, Elton John and Kanye West are some of the performers set to rock the stage at the annual music event, which will take place June 12 through 15 in Manchester, Tenn.

Music fans are up in arms about West playing the upcoming festival. The last time the rapper played Bonnaroo, back in 2008, he decided to start his performance at 4:30 a.m., well behind schedule, drawing much controversy. It appears West and the festival have smoothed things over, and his set will likely be one of the most buzzed-about at this year’s edition.

A few of the other acts set to play the 2014 Bonnaroo Festival include Arctic Monkeys, Phoenix, the Flaming Lips, Skrillex, Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds, Mastodon, Capital Cities, the Avett Brothers, Broken Bells and Cage the Elephant, among many others.

Tickets for the four-day event go on sale today (Feb. 22) at noon EST. For more information on Bonnaroo, visit the festival’s official website.
