Now in its seventh year, Parklife has firmly established itself as one of the biggest and best events in the UK’s ever increasing festival calendar. This year’s line-up is headlined by The Chemical Brothers and Major Lazer, and with eight arenas full of thumping beats across different genres you’ll be spoilt for choice!
Over the two days in (hopefully) sunny June, more than a hundred thousand revellers will descend upon Manchester’s Heaton Park, all of whom will surely not be disappointed by the fantastic bill that includes artists from both sides of the Atlantic. Hip hop legends Ice Cube and Busta Rhymes make the journey from the U.S., whilst artists such as Bastille and Stormzy will be flying the flag for Britain.

Craig David’s resurgence also continues as he makes an appearance with his increasingly popular TS5 set, while some of the usual suspects like Annie Mac, Seth Troxler and DJ EZ and hot rising stars such as Kaytranada and Izzy Bizu round off the cast list.
With such a varied and wonderful array of musical talent on display, Parklife is sure to be one of the events of the year and if your feet are still itching to tap away once the stages have been emptied then be sure to check out some of the official ‘Afterlife’ events and keep the party going until the wee hours!
