Parklife confirms stage splits and line-up for each day of 2024 festival

In case you can't face the full weekend...

Daisy Jackson - 7th February 2024

Parklife has already announced its day-by-day line-up and stage splits for its 2024 festival.

The huge festival up at Heaton Park will be taking place on 8 and 9 June this year, with tens of thousands of music fans pouring into the fields.

Headliners this year include Doja Cat, Disclosure, J Hus and Becky Hill, plus returning Parklife favourites like Peggy Gou and Four Tet.

Sugababes, Mahalia, Anne-Marie, Kaytranada, Camelphat, and the previously announced European exclusive debut of Fisher & Chris Lake present Under Construction are also all on the line-up for 2024.

Parklife is a non-camping festival, so it’s not uncommon for people to commit to just one day of the event rather than both.

And if you’re planning on just buying a day ticket, Parklife has just dropped the full stage splits for the whole weekend.

It means that fans can see exactly which artists are playing on which stage and whether they’ll be there on the Saturday or the Sunday.

Exact stage times don’t tend to get announced until the week of the festival though, so there may be clashes ahead.

As well as releasing stage splits, Parklife has shared details of its payment plans for tickets.

Shimrise

Kicking off the series, Shimrise is the female duo who’ve made waves in Manchester’s house music scene, known for their fearless high-energy performances and risk-taking setlists.

Recently featured at Parklife and supporting the likes of Tarsza (NTS, 6 Music), Vanessa Maria (Foundation FM), and Kennedy Taylor (Capital Xtra), Shimrise’s sets blend dance classics with unexpected twists, creating a nostalgic yet electrifying vibe.

Oldboy

Renowned for his mastery of grime, garage, bassline and house, Oldboy merges authentic UK sounds with modern twists, capturing the gritty energy of pirate radio and evolving it for today’s club scene.

His sets, steeped in UK bass culture, showcase explosive productions on labels like Untitled Dist. and his own Front Toward Enemy, making him a perfect choice to bring the classic Manchester rave vibe to Room Two.

A top talent well worth keeping your eyes on.

Lapalace

With dreamy synths and classic drum breaks, Lapalace’s ambient dance project combines nostalgia with cutting-edge soundscapes.

Since launching in 2020, this Manchester-based artist has built a loyal following, recently crafting a new EP that expands her sonic palette beyond breaks, ambient, and jungle, creating an introspective yet powerful listening experience.

Genre-bending and certainly one to watch.

Ghoulish

Speaking of which, as one of UKF and Mixmag’s ‘Ones to Watch’, Ghoulish is also setting the UK club scene alight with genre-blurring productions and intense DJ sets.

From euphoric dance to core-rattling dubstep, he blends a broad spectrum of sounds, recently earning a release on Skream’s label I FEEL and a spot on Warehouse Project Records.

Expect a high-octane set that defies genres and pushes boundaries.

Known for uniting diverse sounds and creating an inclusive dance floor atmosphere, Me Gusta Collective’s sets resonate with anyone looking for beats that transcend borders.

Also, goes without saying but… great f***ing name, isn’t it?

With hits like ‘Keep Calling’ and ‘Do What You Want Forever’, his releases have become dancefloor staples.

A regular on NTS and a curator at SOUP and A Party Called, Finn’s sets are a celebration of Manchester’s underground energy with global appeal.

One of the world’s greatest music photographers to exhibit at Manchester Art Fair this month

One of the world’s greatest music photographers is set to make her debut appearance at this year’s Manchester Art Fair.

Having grown up in the music industry alongside her father, Led Zeppelin guitarist, Jimmy Page, legendary photographer Scarlet Page is definitely no stranger to life on the road, and has travelled across the US with bands such as Smashing Pumpkins, The Beastie Boys, and more throughout her illustrious career.

Her photography has also featured in album artwork for iconic Manchester band The Verve, and she’s also had the pleasure of shooting some of the biggest music names in recent times like The Rolling Stones, Red Hot Chilli Peppers, Lady Gaga, and Foo Fighters.

But now, in a first for the North of England, Page’s work – which has featured in Kerrang!, Rolling Stone, The Guardian, Mojo, The Times, and many more publications – will be available to see exclusively at Manchester Art Fair next weekend.

Set to be presented by The Art Hound Gallery, Page will unveil a number of exclusive fine art photographs for sale.

Expect to see her iconic stills of people like Amy Winehouse, David Bowie, and Keith Richards, alongside a selection of carefully-curated and completely-unseen new releases, including Courtney Love, Public Enemy, and more.

If all of that wasn’t brilliant enough as it is, Page will also be leading an artist talk at the Fair on Saturday 16 November from 1pm.

“I am deeply honoured to showcase my work, hosted by The Art Hound Gallery, alongside such extraordinary artists at Manchester Art Fair,” Scarlet Page said ahead of this year’s event.

“Celebrating 30 years as a photographer, it’s a privilege to reflect on the intimate moments I’ve captured of some of the world’s greatest musicians.”

Manchester Art Fair 2024 will take over Manchester Central on Friday 15 November from 5pm until Sunday 17 November.
