From Miller:
CHICAGO, IL – Jan. 7, 2016 Miller Lite continues to elevate the music festival circuit by extending its long-term sponsorship with Bonnaroo Music and Arts Festival. The Tennessee-based festival will return in 2016 from June 9 to 12, with the return of the New Music Lounge by Miller Lite. Bonnaroo features more than 100 acts from a diverse array of genres, spanning from indie rock to hip hop, and is expected to draw more than 80,000 fans from across the country.
"The Bonnaroo Music and Arts Festival is the most iconic original festival in the U.S., so it makes perfect sense for the original light beer to play a big part in it," said Bill Averill, director of field marketing for MillerCoors Southeast region. "We’re extremely excited to continue our long-standing partnership with Bonnaroo, and showcase some of the best up-and-coming original bands from around the country on our stage.
Miller Lite will join the iconic festival, held in Manchester, Tennessee, for the 15th anniversary of hosting music legends and renowned comedians. The brand, in its sixth year as the official beer of Bonnaroo, will continue to support the partnership and New Music Lounge through extensive retail activation programming throughout the Southeast.
"Our friends at Miller Lite have been important partners for Bonnaroo and we look forward to extending our relationship for a long time to come," said Chad Issaq, EVP, Business Development & Partnerships for Superfly, and co-producer of Bonnaroo Music and Arts Festival.
