A statement posted on Bonnaroo’s Instagram account Friday addressed the change. “We want you to know that we’re still listening and actively discussing plans to improve The Farm that we love so much,” the statement read. “For now, we are updating the refund to 100 percent, rather than the 75 percent originally offered.”
