The man’s death was announced in a joint statement from festival organizers and the Coffee County Sheriff’s Office, who said he was camping with his father at the time.

“The well-being of our patrons, staff, volunteers and artists is our primary concern, and we work diligently to ensure the safest festival possible. Earlier today, our medical team in Plaza 11 was asked to respond to a medical situation in a nearby campsite,” a spokeswoman said in a statement obtained by PEOPLE. “The Bonnaroo Medical team and Coffee County Emergency Services were on the scene within minutes.”

The man received CPR from a medical team and was taken to the hospital, according to the statement.
