Two of the UK’s hottest dance acts–Disclosure and Rudimental will head up the festival’s main stage, which will also feature one of the UK’s biggest dance music exports Fatboy Slim. A rare performance from iconic singer and model Grace Jones is also confirmed, whilst hip-hop royalty Nas, Wu-Tang Clan and young claimant to the throne, Earl Sweatshirt, will all tap into Parklife’s ever-growing urban angle.

James Bay, named Critics Choice 2015 by the Brit Awards panel, is also amongst the first indie names announced and will be joined by Ben Howard, George Ezra, Metronomy and ‘Uptown Funk’ hit-maker Mark Ronson.

Radio 1 tastemaker Annie Mac and chart topper Duke Dumont will head up a plethora of burgeoning DJ talents spread across the festival, with sets also coming from Richie Hawtin, Jamie Jones, MK, Nicolas Jaar, Seth Troxler, Maya Jane Coles, Eats Everything, and Hannah Wants to name a few. Also returning to Manchester are legendary figures David Rodigan and Andy C, with rising stars Lapsley, Novelist and Blonde also billed.

Having launched back in 2010, Parklife is curated by the same set of promoters behind Manchester’s game-changing series The Warehouse Project, who have adapted the festival year on year to make it one of the UK’s most significant music events – all set in the iconic surroundings of Heaton Park.
