With a stellar line-up of both big name and up-and-coming acts, most people are here for the music. Parklife is a no-camping festival, so you won’t feel like you’re cheating when you go back to your comfy hotel room! Luckily we offer plenty of hotels in Manchesterfor you to choose from, including our Manchester Heaton Park hotel, which is perfectly located for Parklife with cosy beds and, most importantly, hot showers for freshening up. And if the thought of an uncomfortable night’s sleep has put you off musical festivals in the past, you’re in luck. Each one of the eight musical arenas has its own, imaginative theme, from a giant greenhouse complete with palm trees to a temple made out of shipping containers. It’s organised by Manchester promoters the Warehouse Project, and they go to great lengths to make sure their event stands out from the crowd.
Now the fun-filled weekend takes place in the massive Heaton Park, a location with a long musical heritage of its own, having previously hosted big concerts by the likes of Stone Roses, Oasis and the Happy Mondays. The festival started life in 2010 in Platt Fields Park south of the city, but grew so big it had to relocate in 2012 to allow more attendees the chance to see dance music legends like Calvin Harris and Mark Ronson. Held over two days each June, the dance weekender attracts some of the world’s best bands and DJs - and over 140,000 mad-for-it music lovers ready to dance their socks off. In Manchester in the summertime? Discover how the locals like to party at Parklife, the city’s best-known music festival.
