Parklife 2025: ultimate guide to line-up, stage times, tickets and dates
Parklife is one of the UK's finest festivals (according to Time Out). It's hosted the likes of Wu Tang Clan, Liam Gallagher and Snoop Dogg in years gone by, so naturally, this year's bill features even more of the planet's biggest stars.
The Manchester festival kicks off this weekend, with performances spanning multiple genres, from '90s hiphop to electronic, pop and dubstep. And if you're feeling spontaneous, there are still plenty of tickets to get your hands on. Here's everything you need to know ahead of Parklife 2025.
When is Parklife 2025?
Parklife is happening on June 14 and June 15. Gates open at 12pm on Saturday and 1pm on Sunday, finishing at 11pm.
Where is Parklife 2025 and how do I get there?
As always, the festival is taking place at Manchester's Heaton Park. The best way to get there is to hop on the dedicated shuttle bus, which goes from Lever Street in the city centre every 10 minutes, dropping punters right outside the festival site. The journey takes around 30 minutes. At the end of each day, it'll begin picking people up from the site at 6.30pm and keep running until the site is clear.
There are also the trams from Manchester Victoria to Heaton Park which run every six minutes, with the journey lasting 15 minutes.
If you download the Bee Network app, you can purchase the Parklife Travel Pass for £8 a day (or £14.85 for the weekend), which will let you get on any bus or tram service in Greater Manchester to get to and from the event.
Who are the headliners for Parklife 2025?
On Saturday night, the headline slot belongs to rapper 50 Cent. Then on Sunday, Charli xcx tops the bill.

‘Mean' Liam Gallagher branded top BBC DJ a ‘c**t' leaving him ‘floored' as pair's secret feud revealed
OASIS' long-awaited reunion tour kicks off in just two and a half weeks, but don't expect to hear reconciled brothers Liam and Noel Gallagher giving their first chat on Radio 2. The station's breakfast show host Scott Mills revealed he had a falling out with Liam in the late Nineties, when he felt the full force of the singer's acid tongue backstage at Top Of The Pops. 8 8 In his memoir, Love You Bye, Scott recalled: 'I'd met them before and chatted to them briefly, so I thought that might be a bit of an in. 'They were absolutely huge at the time and renowned for being outspoken. Their radio plugger took me over to Liam and said, 'You remember Scott, don't you? You've met him before'. Liam looked me up and down and went, 'Yeah, he's a c*** '.' Reflecting on it now, Scott hopes Liam's behaviour was just a sign of the times, when almost all stars were a nightmare to deal with. In an exclusive chat, he said: 'The Liam Gallagher thing really floored me at the time, because I think it was, like, my second week at Top Of The Pops. 'I think he's completely changed. I actually think I am completely changed, but I think he's probably a nicer man now. 'In the Nineties, it was the thing to be mean. All pop stars now are pretty nice. When I joined Radio 1 in '98, a lot were horrible because that was the thing to do. It doesn't happen any more. 'I can't remember the last time I had an interview that was horrible, or that was hard work. Back then, I used to go down to Top Of The Pops and do the interviews every Thursday. Often, I would be like, 'That was really hard work', or, 'I didn't enjoy that because they were awkward or difficult, or just a bit unpleasant'.' But I suspect that Edinburgh Council bosses will be seeing more of Liam's unpleasant side if his messages on X yesterday are anything to go by. It came after The Sun On Sunday revealed that local authority officials had branded Oasis fans 'drunk', 'lairy', 'fat' and 'old' in secret safety briefings ahead of their three sell-out Murrayfield megagigs in August. Liam said: 'To the Edinburgh council I've heard what you said about Oasis fans and quite frankly your attitude fing stinks. I'd leave town that day if I was any of you lot.' I couldn't have put it better myself. MARIAH REVERTS TO TYPE THIRTY-FIVE years since hitting the charts with her debut album, Mariah Carey will pay homage to favourite songs from her back catalogue on her new record, the first since 2018's Caution. And the superstar, who wowed London's Wembley Stadium when she headlined Capital's Summertime Ball with Barclaycard, will have plenty to choose from across her 15 previous albums. 8 A source said: 'It's been a long time coming but MC16 – which is what fans are calling the album – is some of her best work in years. 'Of course she's moved with the times but a few of the tracks pay homage to where she's come from. Fans will love it.' Mariah dropped the first single, Type Dangerous, from the album earlier this month, but I've learned she is already lining up a remix. The savage track sees Mimi sing: 'I came in the door, dripped in Balenci'. Cropped leather coat and some nine inch Fendis. 'The crowd opened up and I started to strut. I need my space, but I'm signing autographs and such.' My insider added: 'If you thought the original version was fire, you've not heard anything yet. 'Mariah has secretly recorded a remix version with a top rapper which is coming out very soon. 'She's keen to make sure this new era is a success and is really proud of the music she's created.' MILEY CYRUS is plotting a very different career if she ever she packs in pop. The End Of The World singer said: 'My dream actually is for when I'm much older, I'd like to have my own glass shop in Italy.' Asked if she has had any lessons in glass-blowing, she revealed it was the next thing on her to-do list following the release of her recent album Something Beautiful. She told the Reclaiming With Monica Lewinsky podcast: 'My very sweet partner, my boyfriend, he got me glass-blowing lessons for my birthday. 'So I'm supposed to start that as this next thing. The album, as it starts to kind of grow up, it's going to be an adult soon. So I've raised it. 'It's been my baby. Now it's in this child state. And then it's going to go off and do what it's going to do without me. 'And then I'm going to start taking my glass courses.' JADE rocked her performance at Capital's Summertime Ball with Barclaycard with the former Little Mix star opening the show at London's Wembley Stadium before artists including Myles Smith, Benson Boone, Zara Larsson and Mariah Carey hit the stage. I was watching the action from Barclaycard's Summertime Suite and Jade absolutely nailed her set – with Angel Of My Dreams going down a storm with the crowd. 8 8 8 Jessie J also performed at the show which was her first public event after being diagnosed with breast cancer. She told her fans she was having surgery in the coming days but used her trademark humour when opening up about her diagnosis, adding: 'It's a very dramatic way to get a boob job.' Jessie's set was electric and she got one of the biggest cheers of the night – and rightly so. Jessie, you rock. SABRINA Carpenter has a fight on her hands if she wants to get Manchild a second week at No1. Alex Warren has overtaken her song, which topped the Official Singles chart last Friday, with his runaway hit Ordinary. Insiders said it's a very close call at the moment, with Sabrina not far behind in sales and downloads. ROBBIE Keane is a legend of my beloved Tottenham Hotspur and us fans won't hear a bad word against him. Now he's gone up even further in my estimation for his Soccer Aid antics. The ex-striker's old Spurs gaffer Harry Redknapp told me Robbie was the 'life and soul' of the training camp – even leading some sing-songs. Harry said at training: 'Robbie's a legend. I had an early night, but I think Robbie led the karaoke. He loves it. He's a great character.' When I caught up with Robbie, he admitted he'd been partying with Tom Grennan and DEermot Kennedy the night before. Robbie said: 'I enjoy singing but these guys are on a different level.' Asked if there had been pints flowing, Robbie responded wryly: 'We had a sing-song.' I'll take that as a yes. Never change, Robbie. ROBBIE WILLIAMS and Chesney Hawkes gave the crowds at his show at Bath Royal Crescent a cheeky surprise. Ches joined Rob on stage to perform his No1, The One And Only, before the pair flashed their bellies for fans. Robbie said of Ches: 'He's a f***ing lovely bloke. He's the best.' I'll join you in the fan club, Rob. I love a bit of Ches. Charli's celeb show LIDO Festival was like whack-a-mole with celebs this weekend, as stars including Lewis Capaldi, Paul Mescal and Harris Dickinson gathered to watch Charli XCX. The Brat superstar put on an amazing show in London's Victoria Park. 8 8 Amelia Dimoldenberg was shown on the big screen doing the viral Apple dance, while Diana Vickers was bopping along, too. As Charli raced through anthems including 360 and Von Dutch, she told fans to 'put your f***ing hands up' as the crowd went absolutely nuts, before she brought out Bladee to perform their Rewind remix live for the first time. JUST For One Day: The Live Aid Musical is set up in its new home at London's Shaftesbury Theatre and it's one of the best shows I've seen in ages. It is packed full of hits from the iconic event back in 1985 including songs from Queen, Bob Dylan, Elton John, The Police and Status Quo. Stage star Craig Els is uncanny as cantankerous Bob Geldof but it's Julie Atherton who steals the show as PM Margaret Thatcher. Tickets start from £25 and are on sale now. Go and see it – you won't be disappointed.

Liam Gallagher slams Scottish council for description of Oasis fans
The remarks were revealed in safety briefings drawn up ahead of the band's three sellout shows at Murrayfield in August. In the documents, concerns were raised that the sold-out Oasis Live '25 Tour would clash with the Edinburgh Festival Fringe. One note from the documents, which were released following a freedom of information request by the Scottish Sun, shows council officials warning that 'middle aged men take up more room, consider this when working out occupancy'. Another details 'concern about crowds of Oasis on weekends as they are already rowdy and the tone of the band'. It adds: 'Concerned about the safety of the Fringe and its performers. Many performers are considering not attending for that weekend.' One document, which notes 'DF Concerts' in the heading, suggests there will be 'medium to high intoxication' at the concert, and to expect a 'substantial amount of older fans', but adds there have been 'minimal arrests' at recent Gallagher events. Responding on social media, Gallagher said: 'To the Edinburgh council I've heard what you said about Oasis fans and quite frankly your attitude f****** stinks I'd leave town that day if I was any of you lot.' In a second post, he added: 'I'd love to see a picture of all the people on the Edinburgh council bet there's some real stuning individuals.' I'd love to see a picture of all the people on the Edinburgh council bet there's some real STUNING individuals — Liam Gallagher (@liamgallagher) June 15, 2025 The meetings appear to involve a variety of groups including promoters DF Concerts, Police Scotland, ScotRail, the Scottish Ambulance Service and security firm G4S. David Walker, of the Oasis Collectors Group, criticised the comments made in the safety briefings. He told the Scottish Sun: 'To call fans drunk, middle-aged, and fat is a nasty, sneering stereotype, it's a jaundiced view.' Around 210,000 people are expected to attend the three Edinburgh shows amid the group's highly anticipated reunion tour. Culture and communities convener, councillor Margaret Graham, said: 'We're very proud to host the biggest and best events in Edinburgh throughout the year, which bring in hundreds of millions of pounds to the local economy and provide unparalleled entertainment for our residents and visitors. 'As with any major event which takes place in the city, we prepare extensively alongside our partners to ensure the safety and best possible experience of everyone involved – and Oasis are no different. 'No two events are the same in terms of requirements or planning and our multi-agency approach reflects this appropriately. 'We're also working closely with residents in the local area to make sure these concerts pass off as smoothly as possible. 'Over the past few years, we've hosted many similar events and managed to strike the right balance between communicating well with residents and fulfilling the needs of major events and I have no doubt we can do so once again. 'We always look to learn lessons from previous years to update and improve on our plans. 'We're all looking forward to seeing Oasis take to the stage this August and I'm sure that they'll 'live forever' as some of the most memorable concerts ever performed at Murrayfield.'

Liam Gallagher hits out at Edinburgh council after Oasis fans branded 'rowdy'
Liam Gallagher has criticised a Scottish council for suggesting Oasis fans were "drunk, middle-aged and fat". The remarks were revealed following a freedom of information request that was sent to Edinburgh council - ahead of the band's three sold-out shows in Scotland this August. The documents expressed concerns that the Oasis Live '25 tour would clash with the Edinburgh Festival Fringe - the world's largest performance arts festival. One note warned that there would be a "substantial amount of older fans", and that because "middle-aged men take up more room", age and size should be considered in crowd control planning. Another note suggested "medium to high intoxication" should be expected at the concert. An additional remark said there was some "concern about crowds of Oasis on weekends as they are already rowdy, and the tone of the band". It also expressed concern for the "safety" at the Edinburgh Fringe - including for its performers. "Many performers are considering not attending for that weekend," one note read. Liam Gallagher was not impressed - and left the following message for the council on his social media. "To the Edinburgh council I've heard what you said about Oasis fans and quite frankly your attitude f****** stinks I'd leave town that day if I was any of you lot." In a second post, he said: "I'd love to see a picture of all the people on the Edinburgh council bet there's some real stunning individuals." David Walker, from the Oasis Collectors Group, has described the comments as "a nasty, sneering stereotype". "It's a jaundiced view," he added. Local councillor Margaret Graham said that it is usual practice for the council to "prepare extensively" for major city events. The culture and communities convener also said: "We're very proud to host the biggest and best events in Edinburgh throughout the year, which bring in hundreds of millions of pounds to the local economy and provide unparalleled entertainment for our residents and visitors. "As with any major event which takes place in the city, we prepare extensively alongside our partners to ensure the safety and best possible experience of everyone involved - and Oasis are no different." Around 210,000 fans are expected to attend the three Edinburgh gigs. Oasis made their comeback announcement in August last year - ahead of the 30th anniversary of their debut album Definitely Maybe, released on 29 August 1994. Liam and Noel Gallagher's return also marks 15 years since the last time the brothers performed together before their infamous fallout - which was prompted by a backstage brawl before a Paris festival in August 2009. Liam damaged one of his elder brother's guitars, causing Noel to dramatically quit - ending the partnership that had propelled them to fame and fortune. "It is with some sadness and great relief... I quit Oasis tonight," Noel later said in a statement. "People will write and say what they like, but I simply could not go on working with Liam a day longer." The feud continued over the years, with the pair exchanging insults publicly - Liam on social media, Noel more when asked about his brother in interviews - but reportedly never speaking in person. When his documentary As It Was was released in 2019, Liam told Sky News he had wanted to "break [Noel's] jaw" after he apparently refused permission for Oasis music to be featured in the film. But after 15 years, they have now made amends - giving thousands of Oasis fans the chance to see them play live once again. Their top hits include Wonderwall, Don't Look Back In Anger, Stand By Me, Lyla and The Importance of Being Idle.
