Organisers of Parklife have issued a statement, after a severe thunderstorm hit the festival in Heaton Park.
“Due to the current weather conditions and local lightning strikes, Parklife has temporarily halted performances at this time,” said a spokesperson. “This is expected to be a short suspension and today’s programme will resume as soon as possible.
“Any changes/amendments to the festival running-order will be communicated as soon as possible - and festival-goers are encouraged to keep an eye on official festival channels and screens at the show for further information.”
