Parklife 2026 day two LIVE as Calvin Harris and Zara Larsson take to the stage

Parklife 2026 returns to Heaton Park for a second day full of live music and good times.

Drawing in more than 80,000 fans, this year’s festival has already featured the likes of Skepta, Sammy Virji, Josh Baker, Rossi, Prospa, Nia Archives and more yesterday (June 20) with many more big names playing later today.

Sunday’s line-up is fronted by headline sets from Calvin Harris and Zara Larsson, with artists including Armand Van Helden, Osmosis Jones, Omar+, LP Rhythm, Shy FX, Kettama, and Rudim3ntal also bringing the energy to crowds across the five main stages.

The newest addition to this year’s Parklife will be the Panorama stage, which has been described as an evolution of the fan-favourite Hangar. Making its debut, the set-up will feature multi-level dance platforms, a massive 100-metre curved LED screen that wraps around the stage, and exclusive behind-the-booth access for VIPs. On Sunday, the likes of Chloé Caillet, Ewan McVicar and Chris Stussy will play the new stage.

Whilst fans will also be flocking to Heaton Park for the major music festival, there will also be other big-scale events taking place elsewhere across the city-region which are likely to have an impact on public transportation. The other big event will be Take That’s gigs at the Etihad Stadium – where they will play tonight for their third and final show this week.

There will also be the B-52’s and DEVO at the AO Arena, whilst the ICC Women’s T20 World Cup 2026 at Old Trafford will also see South Africa and India play against each other.
