Parklife 2025 Line-Up Revealed: 50 Cent, Charli XCX, Jorja Smith and More
Parklife returns to Manchester’s Heaton Park next June for its 15th anniversary, and this year’s line-up is nothing short of massive. Leading the charge are rap heavyweight 50 Cent, pop innovator Charli XCX, and the ever-impressive Jorja Smith, with over 100 other artists confirmed across two days of music.
Charli XCX was the first name locked in back in November 2024, and now 50 Cent joins as a headliner—his first major UK festival headline in years. Fans can expect a set packed with his iconic tracks like “In Da Club” and “Candy Shop”, a timely reminder of his lasting influence in hip-hop. Jorja Smith, fresh from her Falling Or Flying tour, will bring her distinctive R&B sound to the festival stage.
But the bill extends far beyond these three. Electronic music fans have plenty to get excited about with names like Peggy Gou, Overmono, and Confidence Man, while Lola Young adds a fresh voice to the mix. The festival’s new Matinée stage promises an immersive 360° DJ booth experience, along with revamped VIP and backstage areas, aiming to improve the overall vibe and accessibility.
Parklife has a strong reputation for blending genres and introducing emerging talent alongside established stars, and this year is no different. The diverse line-up also includes artists like Steve Angello, Andy C, Rudimental, Flo, and Joy Orbison, ensuring there’s something for every music fan.
Tickets go on sale January 31st at 10 am, so get ready to secure your spot for what promises to be a landmark weekend in Manchester’s festival calendar.
