The internet is ablaze. What started as excited anticipation for the Roots Picnic 2025 has devolved into a chaotic, frustrating, and frankly, bewildering mess. From delayed entry to hours-long queues, inadequate facilities, and a general sense of disorganization, the festival has become a lightning rod for outrage, and the questions are piling up faster than the rain. But is this merely a bad year, a confluence of unfortunate circumstances, or something far more sinister?
Reports are flooding social media, dominated by frustrated attendees documenting the scene: “I’ve been waiting to get in for 3 hours some ppl have been here since 12 waiting — it’s currently 6:37. No where to use the restroom, get water, food, people are passing out. Mind you, the gum in my mouth is all that I’ve had to eat today.” The sheer volume of posts detailing agonizing waits, overflowing portable toilets, and individuals collapsing from heat exhaustion paints a grim picture, fueling speculation about a deliberate attempt to ruin the event. Some are suggesting a calculated disaster, echoing sentiments from a 2019 Stampede that remains a sore point for many. Was this a cynical money-grabbing scheme, or simply a monumental failure in event planning? The accusations are loud and passionate: “It’s really unfortunate sadly. I love my city but no.”
Adding fuel to the fire, whispers of intentional sabotage circulate alongside tales of a disorganized and poorly managed operation. Individuals are voicing concerns about the festival’s impact on performers, particularly Maxwell who stepped in at the last minute and absolutely killed it. “The sad thing is the RootsPicnic2025 was phenomenal. *On Sunday. It was so well put together, the layout of the grounds was excellent, sound systems on point, great vendors, fun and engaging brand experiences, the three stages were far enough apart to give breathing room but not too much to walk.”
