However, in March 2020, the festival was cancelled due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. Khalid, Lewis Capaldi, Charli XCX, Little Simz, Carl Cox, Bicep and Eric Prydz were also set perform at the event, among others.
The would-be 2020 event was to feature headline artist Tyler, The Creator, the performance being one of his first since being banned in the UK by former Home Secretary Theresa May over alleged "violence and intolerance of homosexuality". By 2023 the non-camping festival has a capacity of 82,500 people over the two days. Jointly organised by a number of groups, including Manchester's The Warehouse Project and Live Nation, the festival started life as Mad Ferret Festival in Platt Fields Park, Rusholme, before moving to Heaton Park in north Manchester in 2013 in order to accommodate the increased numbers attending. The festival predominantly features dance and electronic music, as well as pop and hip-hop artists. Parklife is an annual two-day music festival in Manchester, England and takes place in June each year.
