Parklife is also welcoming new stage partners for the first time this year at Heaton Park in Manchester, England, including Defected, techno heavyweights XXL, underground giants Fuse, and tastemakers Eat Your Own Ears and Repercussion.
Days before Parklife 2022, "London's first Queer-themed festival" will also take place in Ipswich and "UK's Best Pop Festival" in London.
London Flesh Queer and MightyHoopla
A first of its kind, London Flesh Queer Festival will be held in Ipswich on May 28 - 29, 2022.
The festival will feature largely women, non-binary, and queer artists. Casting mainly queer artists and people of color on the festival aims to launch the underrepresented artists' careers on a bigger platform.
Organizers of the London Flesh Queer believe that this "huge" step will "create visibility" and generate more following and engagements for the queer artists involved.
Aside from the London Flesh Queer and Parklife, the MightyHoopla 2022 is also one of UK's Best Pop Festival.
Headlined by British girl group Sugarbabes and UK dance pop group Steps, the MightyHoopla 2022 will be held on the Queen's Jubilee Bank Holiday a few days before June 3 - 4, 2022, the Parklife festival in Manchester.
