Parklife Festival 2022

Parklife 2022 sees the Manchester festival return to the city's Heaton Park in summer 2022 or a weekend alongside some of dance and alternative music's foremost names.

Now a UK festival favourite, Parklife will once again curate a top-tier lineup across eight stages, including its prestigious main stage which will welcome headliners 50 Cent, Tyler, the Creator, and Megan Thee Stallion.

But beyond the main stage is where Parklife really comes alive, with seven stages consistently showcasing house, techno, garage, drum and bass galore, seeing the likes of Chase & Status, Bicep, Four Tet, Peggy Gou, Camelphat, Carl Cox and more perform across 11-12th June 2022.

Having started out back in 2010 as the curiously named Mad Ferret Festival in Rusholme's Platt Fields Park, the festival rebranded to Parklife and moved to its current home in Heaton Park in 2012. It is now curated by a number of the UK's foremost dance brands, including fellow Manchester event series The Warehouse Project and has gone onto welcome some of music's biggest artists over the past decade, such as Liam Gallagher, Foals, Disclosure, The Chemical Brothers and The 1975.

And once the main festival has finished, festival-goers have historically had a number of after parties to choose from – named Afterlife – which have featured a selection of artists that performed during the main festival (as well as others) in venues across Manchester. Details of Afterlife are usually revealed closer to the festival.
