Parklife Festival is bringing a one-off party to Bristol to celebrate its 10th anniversary

The lineup announcement for Parklife Festival attracts plenty of attention every year and it's no wonder.

Held in Manchester's Heaton Park, the blowout sees top acts from a wide range of genres perform across a mix of eye-catching stages, with a billing which continues to go from strength to strength.

This year the two-day festival will welcome the likes of Cardi B, George Ezra, Solange, The Streets and Eric Prydz - and for the first time ever we'll also be getting a slice of Parklife right here in Bristol.

To celebrate the festival's tenth anniversary, its organisers are taking the event on a tour of the UK, bringing 'house party' events to 10 major cities.

On May 4, a special guest from the 2019 festival billing will perform at The Christmas Steps in Bristol city centre, which could mean a big name will be performing if you consider the amount of talent lined up for the two-dayer.

The lineup will remain secret until the week of the show, which will be FREE to attend and hosted by JD Sports, who will be giving away a free pair of trainers to one lucky person.
