Parklife Festival is gearing up for their seventh edition, and behind the announcement of the 2016 lineup, the festival is promising one of the most diverse blends of talent on the summer circuit. The Manchester mainstay event will take place on June 11 and 12, hosting The Chemical Brothers, Major Lazer, and Jamie xx as the two-day festival’s headliners. Along with a stellar cast of main stage talent, the remainder of the lineup is an impeccably curated blend of hip-hop, mainstream dance acts, and countless underground talents, from Flume and Four Tet to Busta Rhymes, and Pusha T.

Parklife’s roster also boasts a number of b2b performances, with Seth Troxler and The Martinez Brothers expected to share the decks and Armand Van Helden going back-to-back with Jackmaster. Meanwhile, Gorgon City are bringing their famed live show to Heaton Park for the party this summer.
