But there will be a brand new main stage for this year's festival with jaw-dropping production throughout each set and far fewer lineup clashes than ever before. Parklife is not only the biggest inner-city festival in England but across Europe, commanding the attention of music lovers alike, regardless of their favourite genre.

Before the line-up being confirmed, early bird tickets sold out in just a matter of minutes with those wanting to get in on the action having to wait until later their week to get their hands on pre-sale tickets. Pre-sale opens at 10 on Thursday, January 25, with a general sale going live at 10am on January 26.

Parklife was brought to life by Sacha Lord, the mastermind behind the world-famous The Warehouse Project in Manchester. In a bid to be as accessible as possible in the current economic crisis, bosses have reduced every ticket by almost £5 which has been dubbed an industry first.

Tickets start at £79.50 for day passes, while general admission for the entire weekend costs £129.50. Payment plans are also available. Tickets for Parklife can be purchased on their website, here.
