John Summit’s annual takeover of The Caverns, the beloved subterranean concert venue in Tennessee, will not take place in 2025, he announced Wednesday.
The event debuted in 2023 by virtue of a remarkable sold-out “cave rave” before expanding to a two-day affair in April of the following year. It’s organized by the production team behind Summit’s Experts Only imprint, which was recently named 2024’s best record label in EDM.com‘s list of the year’s top industry leaders.
Summit’s decision to postpone the “Caverns Weekender” aligns with his reveal as a headliner of the 2025 Bonnaroo festival, which is scheduled for June 12-15 in Manchester, roughly 80 miles north of the venue in Grundy County.
“no caverns this year, was a tough decision but being a bonnaroo headliner is an amazing opportunity i can’t pass up and i need to give my full attention to delivering the best show possible there,” Summit said in a post on X.
The house music superstar did, however, add that that his Experts Only team is working on “finding a new location for EO destination this year.”
Summit’s Everything Always bandmate, Dom Dolla, was also revealed as a Bonnaroo headliner this week. Other headliners include Justice, Glass Animals, Olivia Rodrigo, Hozier, Avril Lavigne and Tyler, The Creator. You can view the full lineup here.
