This summer, Parklife returns to Heaton Park to celebrate its 15th anniversary in style. A festival born in Manchester, it continues to lead the way as a beacon of underground culture and global talent. Since its humble beginnings at Platt Fields in 2010, Parklife has grown into one of the most anticipated weekends in the music calendar. With a lineup featuring the biggest names across multiple stages, Parklife 2025 promises to kickstart the summer with a bang.
Unmissable Headliners
Topping the bill this year are two cultural powerhouses. Iconic rapper 50 Cent takes centre stage, bringing his legendary hits such as “In Da Club,” “Candy Shop,” and “P.I.M.P.” to Manchester in what promises to be an unforgettable performance.
Sharing the spotlight is avant-pop superstar Charli XCX, who has dominated the past year with her critically acclaimed album Brat. This headline show marks her Parklife debut and one of only a handful of UK appearances in 2025, making “Brat Summer 2.0” one of the most talked-about tours of the year.
Meanwhile, Jorja Smith will captivate crowds with her soulful sound and timeless hits, including “Blue Lights,” “Be Honest,” and “Little Things.” A defining voice of modern British music, Jorja’s performance is guaranteed to be a highlight.
A Curated Collection of Club and Pop Culture
Parklife 2025’s lineup has been expertly crafted by The Warehouse Project, bringing together the most exciting names in contemporary music. Dance music icon Peggy Gou returns to add another chapter to her storied Parklife legacy, while breakout star PAWSA and duo Overmono continue to redefine the sound of today’s clubs.
Electronic heavyweights BICEP will mesmerise with their Chroma AV DJ show, and rising star Lola Young is set for her biggest festival moment yet. Elsewhere, Confidence Man, Chris Stussy, Andy C, Hybrid Minds, Flo, and RUDIM3NTAL ensure that every stage has something for everyone.
The lineup also features Hedex, Girls Don’t Sync, Skream & Benga, Marc Rebillet, Interplanetary Criminal, salute, Prospa, and Partiboi69, among others. Across over 100 acts and multiple stages, Parklife guarantees non-stop vibes all weekend.
