Parklife 2022 tickets update as weekend passes sell out for June return

Parklife's big summer return for 2022 saw a huge clamour for tickets this week - causing a sell-out of weekend passes within hours of going on general sale on Thursday.

The Heaton Park festival will return to its June 2022 slot this year with a HUGE line-up, announced earlier this week, which includes 50 Cent, Tyler, the Creator, Megan Thee Stallion and Lewis Capaldi.

Thousands already bagged their ticket through the first-wave pre-sale, and on Thursday remaining tickets went to general sale with the most popular full weekend passes selling out within two hours.

By lunchtime on Thursday, all Parklife weekend general admission tickets had sold out and all Saturday general admission tickets sold out - with 50 Cent seen as a huge draw as Saturday headliner in a UK exclusive festival performance.

Organisers said only a small number of Sunday day tickets and VIP tickets across the weekend are now still available and "are expected to sell out next".

Parklife co-founder Sacha Lord said he had been "blown away" by the support shown for this year's event.

“Parklife started back in 2010 and since it started, you always have a gut feeling how the launch will go.

"After the last 22 months though, with all the rules and regulations, this launch was the one that we simply couldn’t judge.

"The whole team are absolutely blown away by the support and enthusiasm everyone has shown.

"Not only again is Manchester the home of the UK’s biggest Metropolitan festival, but we’ve again planted a flag as the capital of parties. Thank you. Roll on June!”

The event took place in September in 2021, when covid restrictions allowed and sold out in just 78 minutes.

For 2022 it will be back in its traditional weekend over June 11 and 12 at Heaton Park.
