Parklife Festival 2026

Following the huge success of past events, Parklife is returning to Heaton Park in the summer on Saturday, June 20th, and Sunday, June 21st, 2026. Having received acclaim for its diverse dance, electronic, pop, and hip-hop shows, the festival has remained at the top of most-wanted city events in its calendar and every music fan's priority year-round.

Tickets are now on sale at www.ticketmaster.co.uk.

The 2026 edition hasn’t been announced yet, so you’ll need to hang tight for now — but trust us, it’ll be worth the wait!

It has grown somewhat from its humble beginnings as the Mad Ferret Festival in Platt Fields Park, Rusholme. Its move to Heaton Park in 2013 allowed further capacity and expansion, and by 2023, Parklife was a non-camping juggernaut hosting 82,500 per day, with truly cemented credentials as the UK's largest metropolitan music festival.

Set amidst an iconic location, a vibrant atmosphere, and world-class performances, Parklife 2026 is going to be one unforgettable weekend of music, culture, and celebration. Mark your calendars because this is one summer event you won't want to miss.
