Snoop Dogg and Foals For Parklife Weekender

SNOOP DOGG and FOALS have been announced headliners for Manchester’s PARKLIFE WEEKENDER. The two day event, which will take place at the city’s Heaton Park will also feature London Grammar and Bastille.

Foals; who last year headlined Latitude Festival, will close the event on Sunday with four-time BRIT Award nominees Bastille and Disclosure both appearing on that day. Snoop Dogg will return to the UK for his headline performance which will see him be joined on the day by Kendrick Lamar, Nero, Duke Dumont, Rudimental, Foxes and Katy B.

Disclosure are set to bring their newly announced ‘Wildlife Festival’ to the event, by curating the line up on the second stage. They have chosen seven acts to support them including Pusha T and DJ EZ. The Heaton Park event is hosted by the city’s Warehouse Project, who’s Victoria Warehouse venue is set to host The National and Damon Albarn as part of the BBC 6Music Festival in March.

Parklife Weekender is set to take place on 7 and 8 June with information about the full line-up and tickets being found here.
